Thanks, will check out eBay, don't get JWO any more since I sold my 56 and 58 a few years back.
Could you give me the details on that one?

The same ad appears in the May/June issue of Front Wheel Driver, the bi-monthly magazine of the Toronado Owners Association. Here it is.

He does give a price here. $25k. He gives his last name in the JWO ad (Akers).

Here's a nice-looking one on craigslist. The seller is a dealer. Asking $12,500, which is only half what the seller above is asking.

Here's one I saw today in the lot at a dealer here in town. It's not a typical used car dealer because they don't just sell their own cars. They'll sell a car on consignment as well.

Anyway, here's their website.

Here's the car. The cars are behind a chain-link fence, and I took the photos from the sidewalk, so I couldn't get around the car nor up real close, but you can get a good idea of it. Looked pretty good to me.

No price was listed on it. You'd have to call them.

Here's another one that just popped up on craigslist. Not quite as nice as the others as it apparently needs interior work, but it's cheaper than the others ($6800) and looks pretty good.

Thanks guys, I'll check 'em out. The blue one was on SF CL before, all dusty and at 2x the current price! Guess they checked around, cleaned it up, and came to realize these don't sell for muscle car prices. Wish it were closer to NY, transport proces are killer nowadays, probably another $2k.
