Default Here's one for the "Darksiders", found on the side of the road.

We were coming back from St. Louis this afternoon and stopped to take a few pics of this car. It's been for sale along the side of I-67 just north of Godfrey, Il. for the last few weeks. Not much info on the car and it's priced out of my budget right now. According to the "For Sale" sign, it's a 1962 Bonneville that is original with power steering, power brakes, and A/C. It looks pretty straight with no visible rust. The interior looks ok except for a couple of rips on the drivers seat. I assume this would have 389 power, but I did not open the hood. It looks like a nice driver, but for the $10,500 asking price, I'm not too sure if that's in the ball park, especially for a 4 door.







I have a few other pics, but they wouldn't upload to photobucket, including the phone number if anyone is interested.

Odd way to put the For Sale signs on. He must not want scotch tape marks on the glass.

Nice looking car.

The price does seem a liitle high but it sure looks solid. There are some four door fans on this forum, hope they click in.

Very cool car.

And it has the early-production plaid cloth interior, too!

IMO, the price is too high...but it is a heck of a road machine.

It looks very similar to the cloth used in '61 Bonnevilles.

There is a dead-ringer for this on ePay right now...it's gotta the same one, although it says that it's in Nebr.
