Hahahaha! This is a funny one. Or a creepy one depending upon your viewpoint. To sell his 1977 yellow Datsun 280Z, Kim Ridley photographed his 20-year-old daughter, Lexxa, draped across the vehicle in a series of images for an ad on eBay.

Explaining his motivation for using his daughter, Ridley told AdFreak, “If I felt bad about it, I wouldn’t do it.”

Apparently, his strategy paid off. The car has sold for $7,500. Hey, whatever works.
