Brenden used to be active on this site and I've talked with him through email. I believe he did restoration work on this car through his High School auto shop class, including rebuilding a 1962 394. As happens to many of us, life changed and hes wanting to sell his car. This is a sweet deal for someone interested in a land yacht. He's got receipts showing close to $9,000 spent on the car, but has been dropping the asking price for about a year and is now down to $2500. Located in Klamath Falls Oregon, dry high desert environment. Check out pictures on the Craigslist ad:

Holy chit! That saddens me that, that car has not been grabbed up for that, steal of a price! I have a 64 Starfire that is in a little better condition than that, and I wouldnt think of letting it go for less than 10K. Wow, is it that rough out there?

GAOldsman

That is a steal for that beautiful machine. I'd buy it if I were on the left coast for sure.

2blu442

Oldsrick, if you buy this car please let us know.

64OldsStarfire, yeah the economy is bad. But it seems like someone should have the extra money to pick it up. I'd use that as a daily driver in a heartbeat if I didn't have the 1967 Cutlass moredoor that I'm using now.
