mediumball

Yeah, it's presentable. Hard to get good pics of a black car though, and there are more than a couple of scuffs & scratches on the rear bumper that don't show in the pics. I mention them in the ad though. No surprises.

I got a first "reasonable" offer yesterday from a local person. Not a lowball price, but not quite what I want, either. Let's call it mediumball. I replied saying that since I just posted the ad, I'll be waiting a week or two to see what else comes up before I would consider it.
