Richard, your wagon does look nice and if I did not already have my 70 Flattop I might be interested but I just do not need another one, but thanks for asking! If you sell yours and/or you are still interested in my wagon, let me know as I will be down your way at the end of the month and could help with delivery!

Thank you, I always like to think any nice car I sell goes to a good home although that may not always be the case.

I know what you mean, I like wagons as well. I have had a lot of people, I am talking dozens, that say they want this car very badly but then I never hear from them again? As soon as it sells, most of these people will say the same thing, DAMN, I should have bought that!

Well Andy, if one the several dozen guys I sent pics to and says they want it really bad doesn't buy it, I may put it on Ebay. I just hate dealing with all the BS trying to sell it on Ebay.

Sign of the times..No one has money and those who do are paying down debt or holding it just in case....

Its not just your car...all brands are going real cheap and some still cant find buyers..

I hope it sells for you. It's a good-looking car.

Yes, the market is bad and even people that have money will not spend it. I also need the money as I already have medical bills from my tumor on my pituitary and yesterday coming home from that doctor we got rearended and I had to go to the emergency room to get checked out and now I have bills from that and the painkillers! When it rains it pours, such is life!

I'm assuming this was the other guy's fault. Shouldn't his insurance reimburse you for these expenses, eventually?

Maybe you can arange a deal between Lady72nRob71 (Rob) & gearheads78 (Richard). Richard wants your car, Rob wants Richard's 72 and they both live in TX.

Rob could buy your car and trade it to Richard for his 72.

Richard, I have gotten more interest in this car than almost any other car I have had for sale but when it comes down to letting go of the $$$, all I hear are crickets! I also wish that everthing was not the way it is for you but hopefully everything will get better. I would like to see you with the car because I know you would do it justice and I would also probably be able to see it in person later because I make it down your way quite a bit. I have some recent interest so hopefully it happens this time!

You know you have to have something to work on in your new WORKshop...
I notice you keep leaving the 'work' part off of the word...
