For sale by owner

Since it is Sunday, I was over at Mom and Dad's house.  Dad wanted my help posting Jeff's old Fiat for sale on CraigsList.  He has been keeping the car in the garage for a pretty long time, now, and the plan was finally in place to sell the car and use the money from the sale to help contribute to a car for the twins to use.

It's their 16th birthday today, so the timing was pretty appropriate.  Dad and I wrote up the ad and posted it, then we were off to the grocery store.  When we got back from the store, he went upstairs to do the stretches for his shoulder recovery.  When he came back down, he had two emails, 50 minutes apart, from one man who was very interested in buying the car.  The man apparently put down some money on the vehicle a few moments ago and will come back to collect it with the full payment amount in a few weeks.  So, that's it.  The Fiat is headed out of our lives, and not a moment too soon.  It is a 1966 Fiat 600 that starts, but doesn't stop.  The brakes don't work.  The interior is torn up.  It is the perfect thing to own if you want to tinker around and play with an old Italian car.

Here's one of the photos we put in the ad:

With that done, it's back to work for me, I suppose.  I have school stuff to get accomplished.  See what you can do when you handle other things while the world watches the super bowl?
