Hey Jeff, sorry again to see you're in the situation you are. Have you already sold your convertible? Did you get what you were hoping for the wagon? Do you have any spare parts you're looking to unload? A lot of parts from all 3 of your cars carry over to my 98's.

HOPE you mean this in a GOOD way?? (Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not; but from what we know of you Jeff; that's not your way typically...) How much do you want/need for that sign and toolbox? I'll help out if I can and if the other guy didn't beat me to it...

Sorry to see a piece of humongous American cultural heritage leaving our shores though.
I'm going to lobby congress to enact antiquity laws to prevent the pilfering of our historical automotive artifacts by evil foreigners.
Remember the Camaro!!!
The Netherlands?
Those Netherlanders love American cars.
Still remember when Hot Rod magazine put the Netherlands price on the cover and wondering why.
Is the new owner driving that boat back?
He's lucky the car wasn't on the west coast if he is going by sea because that thing would never fit through the Panama Canal.
The added weight of the car will depress the Earth's crust and the Netherlands will be even further below sea level.

Sorry to hear about your house, but that's good you got $50 for the sign!
I liked it because I've never seen one for sale before. I have it hung beside my buick sign

Just a quick "Thank You" for the mirror. I arrived today safe and sound. I now have a matching pair. When I redo my interior I will put these on both of my visors. I have all the stuff to do it except time. Thanks again.

hey guys and Sandy - sorry I missed this for some reason - all is going ok I guess all things considered
selling lots of stuff on ebay, really lucky I had a house full of very collectible stuff, including the convertible and the wagon, both are gone. My sole car is the Toronado, and what a pleasure she is - exactly as I suspected, she is the one I would never let go, and although I drive very little (to the UPS store mostly) she makes me smile - just had some oil leaks fixed and a new axle so hopefully when the sheriff comes to get the house, I will have sold everything and just have the Toronado and a box of cash - so far going according to plan, but the attorney says "don't start packing yet" but it all needed to go
I still have that very cool tool box, I got the sign back (UPS folded it for me so back up on the wall hahaha)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...%3AMESELX%3AIT
I have a huge stash of NOS emblems and logos and side marker lamps, not all NOS but some - hood ornaments, stone guard emblems, all from the 75 88 I believe - need to get that sorted out and online
been lazy
thanks for all the kind words people

Nice stuff Jeff. I wish I know you were selling 98 emblems before you listed them. FYI, I'm 99.9% positive that the trunk emblem for a 76 98 is different than that of a 76 88. I think the 88 looks about the same but is smaller. Really nice parts you have. Let me know if you come across anything else that fits '76 98's if you can. Thanks!

hey John happy to end any of the auctions early if anyone here wants anything - just sold the box - the emblems are all Ninety-Eight I think - bought them for the 88 but never used them - I have other non NOS stuff too I need to sort out - just dozens of emblems but hard to ID
let me know if you want any of this - will end auction
