Hamilton over on the Brooklynian message board posted this on the scene report of a “Fire Sale on Prospect Park West” yesterday. It’s pretty hilarious so we had to share.

About 2:30 this afternoon this car burst into flame at PPW and 14th st. The fire department arrived in a few minutes and extinguished the flames without anyone being injured. As i was taking some photos a woman from the neighborhood mentioned she has seen a series of cars on different blocks with for sale signs and the same writing on the windows. She said it’s probably someone buying used cars and trying to re-sell them by parking them all over the neighborhood. The owner who has it up for sale is in for a surprise

A surprise indeed!
