What is this ad?

A couple of years ago, when I first joined the club, I noticed the following ad in the Windblown Witness:

"old sign 18"x24" outdoor sign with black lettering and border on reflective white ground. $75.00 Sign reads in three separate lines: (2"h) CARR-CHLOS (2"h) --------> (3"h) CAR PARK"

It has remained in the classified ads, on line and in the Witness, every month to this day. So is this an inside joke I am missing? :? If not perhaps the seller should try ebay where people have snapped up such gems as the virgin mary burnt toast. Alternately I suggest a fund raising effort to purchase this item so as to reward the persistence, if not audacity of this old sign seller. I'm in for a dollar....

How funny - I just noticed that same ad in last month's witness and wondered 'why?'

Other than that, I'll go for a dollar.
