Beautiful car and for $29k that's a great deal!

Why pay $80K for a 1971 442 W30 convertible when you can buy this? 99.99% of people would never know the difference between a factory W30 and this car. Plus it's a cruiser, not a trailer queen. I hate trailer queens.

If I had the money, I would buy it!

Bump!

If I’m reading the asking price correctly 29,000 Canadian, that’s not much over 20 K USD. Quite a deal!!

You are reading it correctly. Hopefully there are some more Canadians on this forum or the border opens soon. Thanks!

Is your car a 344 car (442) made to look like a W30 or a 342 car (Cutlass) made to look like a W30 442?

Chances are you will not be successful in uploading a video of any length which demonstrates the vehicle running. We are limited by 10MB - which is about the size it would take to upload maybe 5-10 seconds.

Suggestion: Upload your video to YouTube and paste the link to the YouTube video you created/uploaded.

That's a nice rig Mr.! FYI for any of my fellow Canadians.. I bought and shipped my 2004 suburban from Surrey BC to Markham Ont. for 1500$ by rail. Was way too easy.

Thanks for mentioning the price of rail. Good point. I shipped this car from Quebec to Alberta for $1100 on a car carrier. Worked out well for me. Rail might have been even better.

If you can believe it, I bought this car without seeing it in person. Just lots of pictures, texting and a FaceTime call. Car was priced reasonable for what it was and the shipping worked great. Figured what I spent on travel I could spend on repairs. Worked out well for me.

Great car for cruising on a sunny day! I get a lot of thumbs up.

Why am I selling? Just time to focus on my 1985 Jeep CJ7. The jeep needs a bit of work. Also the wife is @$!* that I have too many vehicles.

Contact me if you are interested. Thanks.
