If anyone with a 59 here is desperate for parts and wants to fund this nightmarish endeavor, let me know.

I could get it dragged home to my place and pull stuff for you.

 

Diamond in the rough.

Its sad that people store cars that way.

 

Once the frame sits on the ground for a couple of years, you can kiss it goodbye. Probably need a fork lift to put it on a flat bed.

J, if you take it home, you may have to adopted the mouse colony living in the car too.

 

The Dynamic came standard with the 371 2bbl engine. 500 would be ok for engine trans rear etc but it looks like body is shot as well as any chrome but maybe bumpers would be a good core. Its worth something to somebody and preferrably wont see the crusher...

 

I don't really want it. It's a heap of crap.
I called the guy up trying to convince him to join the site and part it out. He was disinterested, and wanted the $500.

I don't have a 59, so it's only worth about 13 cents per pound to me, but if someone on here needed something badly, and wanted me to save it for them, I would because I love these old(s) cars.

 

JUST A HEADS UP...IT MAY BE WORTH 500 TO YOU.....BUT

LOOKED AT THIS CAR. GUY WILL NOT TAKE LESS THAN 500.00. HE WON'T SELL PARTS OFF OF IT EITHER. I WALKED AWAY...HAD A TOW TRUCK AND HAD CASH ON HAND. JUST TRYING TO SAVE OTHERS TIME.
HE WAS PLEASANT TO DEAL WITH BUT SEEMED LIKE HE DIDN'T CARE IF IT SOLD OR NOT, SINCE HE OWNED THE PLACE. I WAS GOING TO BUY TO PART OUT...BUT WAS AFRAID OF DAMAGING ANYTHING GOOD TRYING TO LOAD IT UP. ALSO A LOT OF THE COOL PARTS WERE PITTED/WEATHERED. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SAME SPOT FOR 15YEARS......

SUNK INTO GROUND TO FLOORBOARDS WHICH ARE NOW NON EXISTANT. DOORS DON'T CLOSE. DOORS/FENRDER/TRUNKLID/FRONT BUMPER ROTTED. HOOD ROTTED AND NOW BENT BECAUSE HOOD HINGE FROZEN.

GLASS: REAR WINDOW, L/R QUARTER GLASS, DRIVER'S DOOR GLASS GOOD......ALL OTHERS ARE CRACKED. ALL TRIM ON GLASS PITTED UP
.
TRIM: FENDER TRIM BENT, GOOD F/R GLASS TRIM, GOOD GRILL/TAILLIGHTS, REAR BUMPER BADLY PITTED UP. ALL EMBLEMS ARE THERE AND IN OK SHAPE.

iNTERIOR: PANELS JUNK, MANUAL FRONT SEAT JUNK BUT TRIM GOOD, REAR SEAT JUNK, DASH CRACKED BUT ALL COMPONMENTS ARE THERE IN GOOD SHAPE I GUESS. STEERING WHEEL CRACKED AND HORN PITTED.

NO POWER OPTIONS FOR INTERIOR

PS PB THOUGH

COMPLETE ORIGINAL ENGINE LOCKED UP I GUESS.....I THINK IT WAS A 4 BRL....COULDN'T UNDO WINGNUT DUE TO RUSTAGE TO BE SURE....HAD ORIGINAL WHEELS AND 2 PC HUBCAPS IN WEATHERED CONDITIONROOF AND FINS ARE WORTH
SAVING IF THEY DON'T GET DAAMGED BY LOADING IT UP. CAR BODY LOOKS THAT WEAK.
MY TOW GUY FELT IT WAS GOING TO BREAK IN HALF WHEN DRAGGING ONTO FLATBEAD.

THERE'S NO HARD FEELINGS, JUST COULDN'T PULL THE TRIGGER AND FIGURED I POST A BETTER DESCRIPTION SO OTHER DON'T WASTE THEIR TIME.

 

pics of this heap......i couldn't pull the trigger at 600 w/a tow.....i had a guy wanting interior stuff but all that stuff is marginal-good at best.....









i offered 300 then 400 he said no way.....

 

i posted this reply ad.....

 

Guess he wants to be buried in it.

- Eric

 

Did anybody else notice the optional Safety Sentinel? That would be worth saving.

 

yes i noticed, he'll be buried in it......300 i would've dealt with the bs......600 w/tow....not really worth it i don't think

 

Did you see the movie "Christine"? Maybe the car will repair itself
