too good to be true?

idk if you guys remember me talkin about buying that pink(ish) 67 cutlass. Anywho needless to say i did not buy it but patience was a virtue on my behalf.
if you remember later on i said i would love a burgundy 69 cutlass muscle car


OMG I FOUND ONE!!!!!!!!!!

This better be real or i will be pissed. and if some other person buys it out from under me i will hunt them down.... just saying

Dude, that looks like one sweet ride. Love the dash/gauges and the way it looks at the back. If you get serious about buying it, ask for receipts of the work done... got burned in my last purchase from false claims.

Good luck!

LOOKING AT HER TOMORROW!!!!!!!!! guy emailed me today and oddly enough it is like right around the block from the president of the olds club for my chapter, so going to call him tonight to see if he can look at it with me and all that. owner said he uses it as his daily driver and the only problems is the one turn signal and the speedometer needle popped off. Let you know how it goes tomorrow afternoon when i get back

been emailing the guy today and hopefully next week i will have pics up of me in it

things i would need to do to it right away is get the turn signal fixed and then look at getting the fenders repaired/repainted. talked to the olds president today and he said he has seen it running around town and it seemed nice. he is also going to help me look at her as well.

and thank god for idiots who dont know about there car and dont post the bad pics on CL. kinda a waste of my time TBH. interior was not good at all and there was something wrong with the acceleration on the car. needless to say i offered him 5k and he wouldnt take it. but on that note i was totally generous. will post pics of what i took for you guys later

So...sounds like it was too good to be true. That stinks, sorry you went through all of that. At least you knew what to look for, and realized it was not a good deal. BTW you posted a video a while back in the Hurst Olds doing a big smokie donut, then the engine quit. Did you ever figure out what the deal was?
