This one has been around before, I recognize the hideous "parking lot ding preventer" molding that runs the length of the 1/4 panel...whomever installed that should have stopped it before the rear wheel opening. Other than that.....schweeeeet.
|
Yeah...
I seem to recall it,as well. Shootin' for big bucks last time I think. Probably one of the nicest ones left. I like the "no air" thing! Ron

I don't ever recall this particular car being for sale before. The 4,800 mile example with the bodyside molding up for auction a few years back @ BJ was a 403 car..

The car had evidence of some interior restoration work, but was very nice.
|
Replacement hose clamps, and a painted dipstick stick out on a otherwise dirty underhood area.

Same car on E-BAY:

This was a nice car
IMO: I’ll take a dirty engine compartment and incorrect hose clamps every day over a “correct” rust bucket.
Money ahead….but ultimately don’t care, currently not in the market for a CA. Opinions are like…. (Yes that applies to my IMOs too!) |
A few of my personally viewed and recorded (using my cell phone camera) images of cars started on the 1st day before the auction action began. FWIW: I drove car #1 throught this inaugural event – a 1976 Buick Convertible Pace Car.
Also: It was good to see “4door GTO” aka: John Chung (Mr MEGA CAMERA) and TABob aka: Bob Wicker at the Inaugural Houston Mecum 2012 Auction. Noted a lot of other “local” Poncho peeps throughout the auction days…. http://www.tachrev.com/MecumHou2012/CanAm1a.jpg http://www.tachrev.com/MecumHou2012/CanAm1.jpg |

as advertised
|
I guess someone wanted it bad, the auction was ended early.
|
This car is on ebay now
|
|
$29,500 seems a little steep to me, I may be wrong. What should this car sell for?
|
Tad strong for this economy, but it is an extremely low mile original car. Not a whole lot of them around with such low miles and some desirable options.
|
I made the guy a nice offer but it wasnt enough. He wants close to $29500
