    Mark, that seems to have quite the history. Curating is not my speed, and I'm more of a rod than custom fella. I understand that you have no more room at the hacienda, but it seems to be more your kind of car or perhaps Galpin. There are a few other roadside museums that might be a good home, but the market has got to be pretty thin for those that would be willing and able to be a caretaker for such a machine at any price.

    Selling my 1952 Super Riviera 2 door hardtop. It's very complete and highly original. Runs and drives, but the engine has a knock and trans leaks. Great documentation to go with the car (build sheet, owner's manual, registrations, 1st birthday card from the dealership, photos from '52, the list goes on and on). Originally bought by a woman working at Bob Irvin's Buick, in Lacey.

    Hoping to find someone interested in restoring the car. Body is solid, but the floors are shot. Upper grill bar (mustache) is missing. All the spare parts I've collected over the years go with her. Clean title, asking $4,000.

    Someone’s losing some serious cash here. Probably a sad story.

    1955 Dodge Royal Lancer
    fuel: gas
    odometer: 100,000
    title status: clean
    transmission: automatic
    This rare 3 tone painted, 2 door Hemi car runs and drives. You can drive it now. It is complete. Memorabilia items included with car. The Hemi engine runs great It is a two door
    It is price low and not at 30,000 because yes it needs restoration
    For details on work it needs please send your number and and I will call you. Please no tire kickers. This is a complete running and driving piece of history capable of of driving across country or use as a daily driver BUT IT NEEDS RESTORATION WORK AND THAT IS WHY IT IS PRICED LOW

    COME DRIVE IT HOME


    The car pictured is NOT the car for 12,100 but is to be used as reference for what the car can look like restored, that go for over 30,000.00

    1962 Chev C10 Short Bed Fleetside. This is a non-complete, non-running project truck or parts truck. This rather rare pickup could be a good start to your next project or be a great donor vehicle for converting your long bed Chevy truck to a much rarer short bed model. No engine, transmission, or seat, but lots of miscellaneous parts are with the truck. Comes with a complete long bed to provide the structural parts that are missing on the short bed. Washington Title in Seller's name. $1800 or offer.

    Are you ready to do some cruising? You'll get a lot of "thumbs up" in this ride. This car is very reliable. Just jump in and drive it anywhere. Lots of custom features including air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, power lift trunk, tilt wheel, intermittent wipers, leather interior and a real pretty paint job.
    This is not a trailer queen. 289 V8 with auto tranny. Brand new carpets and gear shift.
    Health forces sale.

    Sounds like a good deal until you get to the last line. If they won't show you a picture of the actual car, my rule is stay away.

    "The car pictured is NOT the car for 12,100 but is to be used as reference for what the car can look like restored, that go for over 30,000.00"

    Fuck this guy. Fuck him right in his ear. The only picture included in the whole ad is not even a picture of the car you're buying, not a single actual picture of the car. That is bullshit.

    Yeah! If that isn't bait 'n switch, I don't know what is!
    Chrome and stainless alone will bankrupt you on that car, if it all needs replacing.
    "go for over 30K" Really?

    Here's one for about the same price.
    https://www.hemmings.com/listing/1955-dodge-royal-lancer-999561
    which also has historic price data chart

    very nice for 24.5K
    https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/listing/1955-dodge-royal-lancer-milford-mi-2764359
    This does want 40, but modded (discs)

    Those last 2 are dealer cars, too.
