Replying to: explorerx4 (Jun 25, 2009 3:41 pm) Me and him used to work on our cars, usually in my dad's garage. And of course, we always had a couple of cold ones handy. Well, one day we were bleeding his brakes and he sat the container of brake fluid down right next to his bottle of beer. Without looking he reached over, grabbed the first thing his hand came in contact with, and took a swig. Yep, you guessed it - brake fluid. Luckily, he was no worse for the experience. |

Replying to: ghulet (Jun 26, 2009 12:57 am) The way I post a link is to use the "URL" button below the dialog box. Click once to start the process, then paste your link in after it. When you click the "URL" button a second time to close it, there is a piece of text added that says "link title". Highlight and type in the text you want to show up in the finished message. EDIT: The sentence Highlight and type in the text you want to show up in the finished message. should read Highlight and replace the text "link title" with the text you want to show up in the finished message. |

Replying to: ghulet (Jun 26, 2009 12:57 am) The wire wheels on that 53 Buick seem a bit garish for a wagon - I can't imagine it having those when new, seems like a convertible option. 12 grand for an air horn system from a 61 International? The 62 Chrysler could be saved easily enough it looks like, and it's a shame the Buick with claimed celebrity provenance (I would like to see the proof) was modified like that. |

Replying to: lemko (Jun 26, 2009 6:47 am) '57 Caballero -- not a bad car, but not a #1, so the price now offered, in the low 20s, is close to being correct. I'm predicting around $25000 top bid. If he's looking for $30K, he should be doing more detail work on the car---especially the engine bay, which is deplorable. He's already painted and re-upholstered it, so let's not plead "virginity" here. International Ambulance --BIN price is sheer lunacy. Somebody is way out of touch.

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Jun 26, 2009 6:56 am) I liked the 57 Buick wagon. Good thing he wants too much.

Replying to: fezo (Jun 26, 2009 11:43 am) Well, you're just the buyer for the OTHER '57-the rusty one out in the weeds.  How much can that guy be wanting? 'Reserve not met' - he's gotta be smoking something...
