definitely frustrating when you're interested in an advertised car, but you can't reach the seller - like they don't even care if they sell or not. brings to mind the ol' "honey, i have it listed! that's all i can do." scenario. looks extremely nice and you won't run into a twin of that one at every car show.

That 1968 HPP cover car was mine,. I sold it in 2011 and it went to Australia. Motor detail was done by the Glascos. Man , I miss that car. Original color however, was beige.

I will say this about the one on Craigslist. At 38k, being a 4speed with air, with 53kmiles and correct colors, its on the money.I see why you like it. My old car was previously owned and restored by Mark Amonti from Rhode Island, and was advised by Quint Stilles. Mark was a great guy to discuss the car with , and helped me out considerably after the 40k 2007 purchase.

I think it's safe to say the ad is a scam. No phone number or real email address. Plus its under priced for the condition and pedigree. Seen ads like this too many times.

There's no way that ad is a scam. That not under priced in my opinion. Remember it is a 68. Get into the 40's and were talking 69-70 cars. Any higher and then that's Judge money. Nice car though. Sometimes craigslist replys go to spam box.
