What is the worst-case scenario on that car? The hood needs to be painted, but otherwise the exterior looks good.

What is the shell worth?

If I left now and hurried I could get to North Phoenix, buy the car, and check into a hotel room to do teletherapy for 3 clients. Then I would want to stay overnight so I am not driving when the elk come out.

Honestly, I am surprised the ad is still up, and people closer than me would have a few hours to beat me to it.

It sounds too good to be true, like this lady that was chatting with me on-line.

Running, driving, and allegedly verified safe $600 2000 Civic in Phoenix

There aren't any plates and it looks like it is in front of a business, which suggests it was repossessed and the company is getting rid of it, but I don't recall ever seeing a tow company claim a mechanic inspect the vehicle.

Is this a business posing as a private party?

Is the rest of the ad legitimate?

They said they are accepting the best offer on Saturday. I doubt that anyone will offer a mere $600, but this might be a good deal:

2001 Saturn with 118,000 miles in Taylor, AZ for $500

They say it needs a new oil pan and an AC compressor. "just don’t wanna deal with it."

A/C delete!

Facebook and TikTok? That's the bad part of Internet. (why does the 'Tick Tock' link point to Craigslist?)

None. Can you guess why?

Tick Tock was a family restaurant that was located in Hollywood, California for 58 years. This restaurant was started by Art and Helen Johnson in 1930. The picture above comes from a postcard of the inside part of the Restaurant. You will notice that there were a lot of antique clocks and chandeliers located in this restaurant.

The Saturn is now $300 and needs a new engine.

Oops!

Tick Tock has videos longer than fifteen seconds?!

Why the passive-agressive mislabelling of TikTok?

Don't make me intentionally and maliciously capitalize your name correctly!

1998 manual Civic DX project car near Phoenix for $1,200

It runs and drives, has 260,000 miles, and has some modifications, but this could be good for someone!
