Default Nice Effort, Moron
I'm not normally inclined to take notice of ridiculous Craigslist ads, but this one got my attention.

It seems like the perfect trifecta of bad ads:

- Mid-2000's "TV Chopper Show Boom Era" bike, complete with tart's handbag paint job and way kewl billet wheels? - Check!
- Ridiculously overpriced? - Check!
- Can't even be bothered to pull the trash can out of the way before you take the pic? - Check!

Wow, can't look at that and not hear the TV announcer voice.

"Sparks fly and tempers flare as Paul Jr. battles to create a $150,000 Race Car theme bike in just ten days."

And it ends up on Craigslist behind a trash can.

For a cheap price I would buy it and paint it before taking into my garage. But not his price!
