Default For the spelling challenged.

I realize we all have issues with spelling from time to time, but found this description kind of funny, especially when you start wondering what some of it may mean.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevrolet-Camaro...=US_Cars_Trucks

The pinion steering is "racking"(racking pinion steering).
Has a 4 wheel disc that apparently "breaks" frequently.
Well wood (is that like drift wood?) also breaks.
Not sure what "LINA TI CAM ROLLER" is, but I think Lina Ti is a Viet Namese stripper.
Apparently you have to buy a large supply of crack to keep the thing running, as the "Mallory Engine" is "crack triggered". Hmmm, might get into some trouble there.

Reminds me of one of those "radio arm saws" that are always on craigslist.

This is easily translated Lynn as I live in the heart of Appalachia. I consider myself among this cultural group and I am proud of my 'Mountain' heritage. Even so, I get a chuckle from what others say and I joke that English is a second language around these parts. Some common terms: elderbrock, eldeblock = Edelbrock, Smith&Western = well, you know, and Antique is pronounced An-tee-Q ? Really! Crowder = Crower, Camero = Camaro.

At least he spelled Camaro right. Several years ago there was a Camaro emblem listed on Ebay. Even with the emblem in front of him the seller still spelled it Camero. He got POed when I sent him a message letting him know.
