[Shotimes] St.Joseph '99 on AutoTrader

[DAVE]

A few years back I accidently purchased a Honda CRX at auction. I was talking to a friend and bidding at the same time and ended up with it for 60 bucks no great loss but not a car I wanted. I put it up on the old Classifieds 2000 with an ad that read. 89 Honda CRX this is the rice rocket of choice for the sticker crowd.1000.00 or best offer and tossed a picture in of the rust bucket. Some guy bought it for 750.00 and came in by train from Colorado. He e-mailed me and asked if he could drive it home I said I wouldn't drive it down the block. Guess he encoutered all kinds of trouble on the way home.
