Texted you the ad. Hopefully the “combined brains trust” here can pin it down - someone will get a sound project car from it.

Maybe his braille computer is playing up

I run ads on Gumtree fairly often, I put in the title when possible "NO text or email" or in the first line of the description, you would not believe how many texts and emails I receive , I just ignore them now, never been desperate to sell, plus I find the ones that can actually read, call, come out when they say and generally have the money to purchase.

You’re a champ. Did you find that through some clever means, or just scanning the maps?

Still a good prospect for someone with a frontal or t-boned Terry that has good boots and brakes. I’ve got one now but like the ute a couple of weeks back this one could be decent.

Wow, I was in Anglers Dr on google maps this morn. Ironic the next street on the other side is Gumtree.

I wasn't being specific to your case...just generally.
Sellers dont read messages properly sometimes...either do some buyers was my point.

Maybe he sold it...maybe he won lotto...maybe he died...who knows?

I decided not to reply to the obvious scam ones or the insulting offers.
I was not desperate for the money...maybe it works sometimes...but demanding/repetitive messages get you ignored faster in my book.
(I'm not saying you did that either)
