Looks like some nice cars, that Silver 71 W30 is gorgeous.

Now, lets see how the bidding goes.

The one with the added spoiler?

I would hope that a car of that caliber wouldn't succumb to such a bonehead move, but I guess I didn't offer enough hope.

Yes, seems to be the latest fad, right up there with faux W30 stripes on everything.

Same here. One of the wife's friends was surprised that we weren't driving up to Scottsdale for that.
She doesn't know me very well.

Yes, but it's getting so that no W-30 is a driver anymore. Especially a convertible.

Those W-30's are nice indeed.


BTW, I actually had a 69 442 ragtop that looked just like yours. I doubt it's the same one but I guess one never knows.

Emblems of course are way off. Has to have the never available wing

Sure is. Incorrect stripes. Crooked emblems etc. All for the insane price of 170 grand. Does anyone care what they are really buying anymore?

It's funny to look at the sold prices. Suckers. I do not get why people drop mad errr stupid money on incorrect cars. I just don't get it. Thank goodness I don't. 143 grand here. Emblems again look off. Towel rack. Etc etc.

No, I'm in the U.S.

Those are indeed nice cars but I do remember I did have one heck of a time getting that top frame straightened properly on mine,

Forgot about this Olds powered beauty, looks pretty nice. But of course the Coke decals are in the wrong place
