[BaadAssGremlins] Re: Free 232 6cylinder with Automatic.

Ed,

I live in Denver and saw your ad on Craigslist.  I had just sold my 78 Gremlin a few days before I saw your ad, otherewise I would have been very tempted to take you up on your generous offer.  And it would have worked out to for me to pick it up as I drove through Omaha on Aug 22.  I hope you find a good home for it.

I figured that maybe someone could use it for their project, or to just keep their AMC running, and it would be better option than throwing it on the scrap pile. (You got to think Green)  I got about 20 e-mail responds the first day, so I figured I would let the people who sent the 1st e-mail have 1st shot at it.  The guy called me told me heâ??ll be there at 10:00 sharp Saturday, (2 weeks ago).  He never showed, call him around noon, told me he had to work and would be there a 10:00 Sunday, again he never showed, called him around noon, and he told me he decided he didnâ??t want it.  The same story happen with 4 other guys.  It was a total waste of time so far.  So I sent out an
