So some dude came by lastnight to look at the car and said it was a fake 442 because it had the cutlass emblem on the glove box.
So i had to give him a lesson on 72's.
He said he just got finished looking at a 69 396 chevelle 4 speed finished car for 10,000 i said sounds like a great deal ... but i dont think he was buying any car at all just a tire kicker.
I knew it from our phone conversation that it would be a waste of time. The car was advertized for $10,900. so he says oh i cant pay $9000. for it so i told him im not selling it for $9000 anyway.

 

Not sure where on the Island you are, guessing suffolk by your 631.
but I would go to the Bellmore show Friday night and put a for sale sign in the window..

 

Yeah i hear ya i get so many tire kickers in person with the sign and everybody knows your business.
if i'm in the mood i will use the sign i think we maybe rained out this friday but i go down now and then.

Johnny check out this thread

 

if the weather is good i will be there, would love to see your car and kick the tires!

 

I will be at Massapequa Train Station if weather permits.

 

I'm going to Oakdale tonight if it doesn't rain.

 

Put a sign in the window for $18,000 and let someone talk you down to $10,900.

 

- OP

Yeah but I wouldn't put it past anyone to actually do it though =/ I wish I had the cash I'd grab it from you. I'd even drive to pick it up and drive it home. I'd have to sell a bunch of cars to be able to set aside that kind of money......I'm in love cos it's w30 heads. =D

 

lol

 

Price drop $10,000 must move

 

Yer killin me! That car is worth that all day long. Can't believe someone hasn't bought it.

 

Johnny, this is really befuddling. Its a big block car in resale red. Is it that nobody is coming to see it or people have issues when they look at it. I know some people's expectations are just too damn high, no matter where you price it.

Good luck.

 

i had two people come down so far one guy said i cant pay that price the other guy said he would get back to me still waiting.
should i do more work on it first maybe new paint and ask $15k?

 

I agree! You just don't run across a good running driving car for $10k. IS it perfect, no, but with a lil tlc it can be a great car!

 

Only way I can explain it is that a lot of people are hurting for cash, even more than I had thought.
Cash is king, and ANYTHING you are trying to sell may bring far less than you had feared - especially when it comes to nonessentials.

Not a comment on this car, you understand, but the economy.
IMO, this car is well "worth" way more than $10k.

 

That's when I say, "that's YOUR problem, not mine".

 

The response I'd favor is, "You are right, you CAN'T pay $9k for it!"

 

Last price drop $9800!!!!!!!!!

 

If only I had room for a 3rd Cutlass...Johnny you are making this incredibly tempting.

 

You can bring the silver one over to my home Stephen lol. Then you would have the room for it.

 

Nah, I wouldn't want it to sit outside Maybe I should just move to San Antonio and we can all get a ranch and build a 10 car shop with a lift in every bay

 

Johnny, where are you located? I should probably look at this car already. I wouldn't be able to buy it unless some miracle happened, but at least I could vouch for you. Let me know if that's cool for you!

 

Why have we seriously not thought of this before.... TOTALLY in. And there is an empty spot in the garage right now lol

 

I have room for it in my garage =P

 

Just because there's an empty spot doesn't mean it'll be safe. I've seen your garage lol! Besides, it needs a nice clean spot of concrete to show off how well it DOES NOT leak a drop of ANYTHING...I'm not so sure it will get that at your place lol!

 

West babylon 631-707-1056

 

I saw you drive by Bellmore this past Friday night... car looks nice!

 

 

My dog loves cheerios too! Car sounds beast dude!!! I'm saving, if it don't sell by the time I get this money together I'm coming to buy it

 

I'm shocked too that it hasn't sold yet. It looks like a real beauty for the money. Are you going to bring it to any local shows?

 

I though the last price drop would do it got a couple bites locally but nobody pulled the trigger.
$8900 gotta go wont be at this price long I have a 2010 challenger forsale also if it goes to the dealer this car will not be forsale no more and will be painted then sold for $12-15
Thanks all!!!

 

Email sent on possibly working something out

 

PM sent.

 

that makes perfect sense!

 

Where in New York are you? Do you have an email address?

 

pmed you..........

 

Nice car. I can't believe that it has not sold!

 

I might have to take a trip to come look at this. It's a 4 hour drive, but it may be worth it.

 

Believe me I know. Trying to get my dad off his rear so I could raise the cash for the car. Need it like a hole in my head but but what the hell.
