Cleveland is a big place. Can you be more specific about the location? And the more interesting the car is, the farther I'm willing to travel.

Phone number searched on CL shows a few others he is selling.
http://cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/2708029822.html
http://cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/2721657483.html
Both those two above have temp tags on them. I am wondering if he buys and flips cars.

If he's trying to flip some cars, I think he's doing it wrong... He's not exactly sitting on a bunch of cars that the typical used-car buyer is looking for.

Also consider the fact that each of his ads has a different reason for having to sell...

May be legit, but I'd be a little nervous buying.

They are all Japanese and somewhat interesting, he may be thinning the herd to make a major purchase; New Car, House or a Ring come to mind.

Hmm, these ads look borderline scary, as in possible scam. The CRX and the Mirage look like they had re-paints within the last few months, and the English/spelling in the Crown ad suggest you would be dealing with folks in the 'hood.

Still, there is a foundation for something very unusual in that Crown.

Westside Cleveland isn't THAT "hood". Just because a guy can't spell doesn't mean he can't afford to have three dilapidated non-desireable japanese crapboxes.

W 58th and Detroit Ave will put you at the Parkview Night Club. http://www.parkviewniteclub.com/
I highly recommend. More of a Bar and Grill than a night club (but the do have live music later at night). The smoked pork tacos rock!
As seen on Diners Drive-Ins and Dives.

I was just at there again about 3 weeks ago.

W.56 is not great but e.56 is dangerous.

wow. been there a few times. Such a cool old school place. I agree, def a place to visit.

Or go up the street to 49th and detroit (i think) and stop at Happy Dog. Custom hot dogs made to order. Sounds somple but the toppings are unreal and you choose what to put on....oh only $5 too

I have not been introduced to the Happy Dog but I should. It is on the same corner. Happy Dog on the corner of w58 and Detroit. Parkview on w58 3 blocks north of Detroit.

The is a really cool food scene in Cleveland. That could be a thread all to itself.

Or, it could turn into a NW-Ohio-vs-Cleveburg thread...

Tony Packo's + Myle's Pizza beats versus Cleveland? Bring it on!!!

And if Cleveland manages to "win", I will simply throw down "THE BOB"... 'Nuf said.

I know the Packo and I know the Myles but I am stumped by The Bob?
The only "The B.O.B" I know is the Big Old Building in Grand Rapids, MI. There I have been. http://www.thebob.com/

Packos is good for what it is but...if you want good Chicken Paprikas in Toledo, the answer is take-out at Louie's Takacs Grocery one block behind the original Packos. Made fresh every Weds. http://takacsgroceryandmeats.com/index.html

For a Cleveland answer I give you Sokolowski's University Inn, http://www.sokolowskis.com/
What others have to say about them:

To an out of towner, just finding the place is half the battle.
