A New Low Even For Craigslist

I couldn't resist.  I emailed him. 

My Email.   Do you have the original motor?  Is that Mark IV like a special edition car or something?

The Response:  It is the special edition marker as you would call it.  Do not have original motor.

Even the Reaper couldn't cut up a car this rare.  I wonder if they have a Hot Spot there?

I don't see anything out of line in the ad..."MARK IV" was actually GM/Pontiac's "official" name for the WS6 package (if you have a build sheet, you will see it noted that way)

X3 on the Mark IV.  Almost legit, except for the W72 perf. pkg with the car being an '80 and originally a 301 car and now a pontiac 350.  I call shenanigans on that one!

There actually was a W72 301 N/A (designated T/A 4.9) performance pkg engine.  I had one in my 1980 SE.  They had an upgraded cam over the standard 301 N/A.  Moot point with the OE engine missing though.
