"It ran when I last used it" (yeah 20 years ago)

"In need of some TLC"

"An easy fix"

"A steal at this Price" (Yes..... if it ran)

"Just needs a good home" (and a good mechanic)

Add some more.... I am sure everyone has heard there share!
 
I seen one in San Diego for a free ad.

"Free Fire Place. Works Great! Some Assembly Required."

Picture was a pile of broken red bricks from a demo.

This is too easy:

"Old Elgin boat motot sold by Sears in the early 50s. Turns over. Has been sitting in my barn for years. $60. Thank you. "

I think they mean you can turn the motor over from the photos

haha! Years... I think he means decades!
 
They are everywhere

"I am selling an old 28hp outboard motor that I used a few years ago on the back bays at the jersey shore. When I used it, it ran but it could have used some tuning. It sounded like it was misfiring at times. I had replaced the plugs and it started right up but was not always smooth. It has a pull start but I used a cranking battery with it because it was easier to use the push button start. It has been in my garage taking up space so I would like to get rid of it cheaply. This would be a great, inexpensive motor for someone that is handy with outboard motors."

Really, it would also make a great anchor for someone that is handy with tossing junk over the side =D>
 
"bought it three months ago to fix up, now I decided I don't have time for it"

Interpretation: "found out it is not fixable"
 
"Has good compression and is not siezed. Have not run it in approx. 3 years since the impeller went out. but ran great until then. A really cool antique piece that i wish i could keep, but running out of space in the garage"
 
"Project boat that has been sitting for 4 years. Last time it was started it ran."

Haha...there is a statement...last time it started it ran...noooooo really? ....that one took a thinker.
 
Sometimes I wish this one was me - "Got a new boat and just dont need the old one anymore" :lol:

And heres one I just read today!
We no longer have a boat, so don't need this. It is just been sitting in our yard and I'm ready to haul it to the scrapper. So, if you need a tilt boat trailer ready to hook up to and haul away, get ahold of me pretty quick cuz I'm cleaning up the yard! I'm asking $200 OBO. I know it will hold a 14' boat, I really don't know much else. I'm not a boat or trailer person. What you see is what you get!
 
This raft made from 105 milk jugs, chicken wire, and plywood can be easily hauled in the back of a pickup truck.
It will hold up to 800 pounds and is very stable in the water.
It weighs 89 pounds.
