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. |

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: tjc78 (Jun 28, 2009 4:45 pm) I gotta admit, that '79 New Yorker has me drooling! Oddly, the base New Yorker with optional leather seats comes off looking plusher than the standard leather in the more expensive 5th Ave Edition. And a lot of customers noticed that as well, so for 1981, Chrysler switched, and made those pimpy, button-tufted seats the 5th Ave seats, while what had been the 5th Ave seats (more of an "X" pattern) the optional leather seats for the base model. I had always been under the impression that my '79 5th Ave stickered for around $12K new, but if that blue NYer stickered for $11,937, I wonder if my car was more? That '82 New Yorker looks really nice, too. I really like that "Nightwatch" blue color. It's non-metallic, so it stays shiny forever (although my Nightwatch '79 NYer is oxydizing) I saw an old beast at the GM show in Carlisle this past weekend that really caught my eye. 1972 Buick Centurion 4-door hardtop. White with a green top and green vinyl interior. Supposedly only had around 8,000 miles on it, but if so, it hadn't been stored very well. Carpet and package shelf were shot from water damage, and there was some surface rust here and there. Seller wanted $1800 for it. I thought it would've been a neat beater, especially with the 455-4bbl! I took a pic of it, along with some other stuff at that show. I'll post a link to it all once it's uploaded.
