  4. Early B-Bodies have been drying up. Are you looking for a sedan or a hardtop? You are going to have to look a lot harder for a sedan, and pay twice as much.

    My dad just bought a '63 savoy on craiglist in cali, and no, they don't grow on trees out there anymore, like they did 15 years ago. He hangs out with more mopar guys than I do, but mostly the early B-bodies are on ebay. You might try the 62-65 mopar website, http://www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/welcome.html I don't know if they still have for sale ads. moparts also, maybe.

    On a recent drive to Kooskia, we travelled hwy 12 through SE Wash, and somewhere along 12 I found a 64 Polara 500 parked behind a house. It was clearly visible from 12. Just cannot recall the exact location, and no, I did not take notes. Just one of the many little hamlets that dot the map.
    Wash hwy 12 is not that long of drive so get going.
    Actually, I was amazed at the amount of old iron on that stretch of road including a 30's something parked next to a house in Pomeroy. Again, spotted as I drove by.

    Soon to be leaving on another road trip, I'll take notes and maybe pics.

    For multiple posts,you have to change the "wording" of the ***le and the "body" of the post.
    1964 Savoy wanted
    '64 Savoy wanted
    1965 Savoy wanted
    '65 Savoy wanted
    '64-'65 Savoy wanted
    1964 Plymouth wanted
    '64 Plymouth wanted ,you get the idea.

    Is there a "finders fee"? :D:D:D

    If you want to search more than one city on Craigslist try using www.searchtempest.com
    It allows you to search within a mileage radius of your town. You just put in your zip code a mileage radius of say 500 miles and what it is you are searching for. The results are arranged closest city first to farthest last. Hope this helps and happy Mopar hunting :)

  17. And hope someone doesn't come after you and flag posts from home and work, we have one car that every time it gets posted no matter what city it gets flagged for no apparent reason other than some ***hole has a beef with us.

    There are a lot of auto trader publications out there, Hemmings, Cars & Parts, plus a couple of books I see that run photo ads cheap, hit the newsstand and check them every time. I know it's 2009 and all but some people still aren't into the internet thing yet.
