Odd racer Good name Commiecar 3/4 scale 1949 Chevy "a recognized AACA Historical Preservation candidate" This could be one too White and cute Not for the shy Fanciful restoration claims, but didn't spend a few hundred bucks for the steering wheel... 70s futurism Patina The tires are a bit much Where does this guy get all these things? Flashy last ride Why? Uncommon Fuselage preservation And its richer identical cousin Bleak days Yet another from the king of malaise barges |

Replying to: fintail (Jan 09, 2009 6:19 pm) 51 Buick Roadmonster Sedan -- bid was a little light by about $1,000. $4K--4.5K should do it. 56 Desoto 4 dr -- good god man let it go for $20K if that's the bid. If you got your $26K, that would indeed be a HOME RUN. I would have bid $15K tops for it. Not bad lookin' for a 4Door though, I have to say. 58 Edsel Bermuda -- these can bring strong money, even as a #3 car like this one. I'm guessin' $25K on this one. 1958 Lancia Appia -- you know, if it weren't refrig white I'd be tempted at $4,600. These are such sweet little jewels, very well made cars. Had it only been that lovely slate gray with red interior, I would be *sorely* tempted. Check for rust, natch--we see many with crusty floors. 1978 Toyota Celica -- that'll run for another 200K miles.
