Lately I've been noticing more and more cars parked along the streets that have a bucket or a bottle of motor oil placed on top of the roof. I understand that this is the customary way to "advertise" your car is for sale to someone passing by.
Does anyone know how or why this practice/tradition came about? Is it the standard way to signal "For Sale" or is it something more covert (because of restrictions on car sales or whatnot)?
Not sure why but I find it fascinating.
