For personal reasons, I am putting this out there before I put it on the road. If I decide to go ahead and tag it, the price may change depending on how it performs.

good looking parade car at an affordable price

 

Thanks. When I first started on it I was thinking low rider! But it was moving along slowly and costing so much I had to change direction, or it would not have came this far.

Before Pic.

 

Price reduced to $7000

 

Has to go.
Price reduced to 6000 USD cash.

 

Wow Patrick that is a screaming deal!!!! If it was on the west coast it would be gone by now. Even at your original listing price.

Put an ad up on your local craigslist, then post it on EBAY with the comment "listed for sale locally, reserve right to end auction if it sells first"... it will drive buyers to your craigslist ad. Basically free national advertisement for the car.

Good luck with the sale. regardless of your reason for selling, you should be very proud of how far you've come with this car!

Cheers!
Ben

 

Thanks Ben. I hate selling stuff. On the west coast the Low riders would love it. I prefer it goes to a good home, someone that knows points, drum brakes, carbs, not someone that will toss out the original stuff for 20s, maybe some one that would at least offer the original stuff back to the old car crowd. (N-93 rims), but maybe my hopes are too high.
