Whenever I hear someone talk about "radio delete", I always proceed to tell them all about my gramma's 1968 Dart that was a 426 Hemi Super Stock Delete car.

...in other words it was a 225 six cylinder, base model.

That usually gets them to think about what they just said.

I guess in Camaro terms I could always talk about my brother's "1969 Camaro ZL1 delete" (A.K.A. his 1969 327 Camaro Coupe with a 3-speed stick) he drove in high school.

'

'Runs out good'
I always wonder about ads w/ this one, should we bring coolant/oil/gas...a Dial gauge?

'Ready for Restoration'
Usually abandoned projects but somehow indicating the seller helped get it ready...which may actually be true if a nice car before they owned/touched/poorly stored/worked on it?

'Numbers Match'
Occasionally used innocently but term usually meant to intentionally trick those not in the know to think parts are original when the exact opposite true and Non-original Restamp parts the actual reality.

Just ran across a new one. I am certain this has been stated before; I just didn't see it until today:

"has a v6 inline motor"

As a parts buyer/seller, I always like it when a seller describes a part as NOS or New, when it's been used and abused.
