Again, in my travels I came across this car while prowling the streets, okay I was driving by after returning from a job.
I mentioned to y'all I saw this car and would stop, knock, and roll.
Well, I did today, and I will tell my story.
This car is owned by a very extremely nice, but elderly gentleman.
I told him I saw his car on occasion and finally had the chance to stop and inquire about it.
I asked him if it were for sale and he indicated that it is now.
I offered him $1500 and he said he was thinking more along the lines of $3500.
I did not want to insult him or act like I knew much more than him about the value of his car, but I did tell him that he should not expect to get more than $2-k out of it in this condition.
He does not have internet access, but will answer phone calls.
He asked me to list the car for him to try to help him sell it.
Guys, I will post all the pics I took of it and let you decide what it is worth.
If you are interested , shoot me an e-mail to [email protected], and I will give you his phone #.
Please look, and if it is not for you, please, out of respect, do not turn this into a personal opinion poll or I will simply delte the pics and the ad.
He said the car runs and drives, but has not started it for about 1 year.
It is a slant-6 /auto on the column, with less than 100-k miles.
The worst parts is of course, what ever rust is hiding under the vinyl top, and the cowl area under the windshield is cancerous.
I am posting theese pics and info to help this guy sell his car.
He is very elderly, so if you do get in touch with him, please be respectful as I know you will.
I am just trying to help the guy out as someone may want to do some better bargaining than I had the time to do.
keep in mind, I was able to knock on his door and pursuade him to let me take pictures of his car with the promise of listing it for him as he has no internet access.
I did not want to further impose upon him with any high pressure bargaining.
I figured I got this far, I better not push it with him since he seems pretty fragile.
O'kay guys, that's all I got.
Maybe with some friendly bartering, one of you guys may get him to come down on the price once he realizes it is not really worth his asking price.
I told him to expect some phone calls.
P/m me or email me with questions.
Spaz.
