Looks like the majority of ads in my neck of the woods! I always want to ask them if they could send me some pics that are even worse than the one in the ad. Possibly one taken while its crammed in a cluttered garage with cats sleeping in it. Or one a 100 yards away in a field thru your kitchen window right after the sun sets....oh and please leave me no details about the truck or how much you are asking for it! But I can never ask because they didn't leave the correct contact info.
But in their defence, most ads I come across like that (four this year alone) are older people who don't know how to nor want to work a computer and it was there grandkids that told them to put it on Craigslist.
I always give them a call. You never know what your gonna get.
And if it is someone that doesn't realize how bad their ad is, I try to politely give them some hints on how to make their ad more appealing.

That is a very rare truck. It not only doesn't resemble most other 1976 C10s, it has front wheel drive!

Maybe it's four wheel drive

I considered that, but the stance in the pic appears to be a 2WD truck.

I also assumed (yeah, I know) that most people recognize 4WD as four wheel drive, and FWD as front wheel drive.

Ya never know.....

At least the pic wasn't taken in the dark
