For Sale - 1939 LaSalle - Project car
My brother in law started a restoration, but was unable to continue due to illness.

So I have a partly disassembled LaSalle, that needs a home and someone with the interest to re-assemble it.
He had pulled the engine for rebuilding and sent it to a machine shop where they stripped the engine down. He also purchased the following parts for

the car including;

-new distributor, spark plugs and wires
-new brakes
-rebuilt carburetor

Asking $5,000 or best offer. Please contact me for additional information.

 

That Studebaker looks like the deal ! Git in'er and drive !


I never understood why people chock their car's wheels. Is the transmission inoperative?
E-brake doesn't work ? Engine has no compression? Looks like a pretty level floor.
And… why 4x4 s, when 2x4 or plain bricks would suffice?

OK, done with the rant.

 

Pesky kid's sneak in, move shifter..?

 

Not a car, but a real deal for a guy wanting a different period correct engine. I've kicked myself a couple of times for letting my good running 289 go.

 

That rudabaga coupe is really a sweetheart. Too much on my plate now, but I have always liked those things

 

$1500...fulfill your gasser dreams.

One thing that reading this has pointed out to me is there is a vast difference of opinion of what is inexpensive.

 

No shit partsdawg. When this thread started, the cars were low priced. Now, it's just another sale sight.

 

It’s interesting

Yep.
I’d cruise it

but I’m
Trying not to buy anything until I get one going

 

Looks like something based on a Crosley Hotshot. Or maybe not . . .

 

It’s even smaller than that. Although it was sized the same as its contemporary microcars, it was built as an amusement park ride.

 

When Disneyland opened in '55 the Autopia was a very different attraction than today. The cars were very AC looking with a couple sorta 50s Studebaker looking. One of them was a tow vehicle they actually used to retrieve broken cars. There were CHP cars too. The cars weren't on a limiter strip. You could actually pass slower drivers. It didn't work out. Like so many others of Walt's early ideas. They were based on people that behaved.

My folks took us to Disney Land in 62, I was 7. You had to be taller than a pole at the gate to be able to drive those cars, I was too short...cried for days it seemed.

 

Beetle ?

 

Definitely in my price range

At a local amusement park my nephew solved the too short problem. He stuffed his shoes with mulch.

No shit!!! My convertible was way worse than this car and dad paid a lot more for it that $10

 

59 drop top I rebuilt for a guy I know

 

A friend here bought the rustiest '60 El Camino I have ever seen. I asked him "why?" He said it is a '60 El Camino with a clear title. I've wanted one for years. He then bought one of the nicest '60 station wagons I've ever seen. In a year he had one of the nicest '60 El Caminos I've ever seen. He got it for cheap and just a year of his life.
