Never fails, Car looks good, decent price, sells before you can blink
Reminds me of when I'm talking to friends about cars I'm intrested in. They just smile and change the subject :D Sometimes wisdom has to be...
Another one that's crossed my desk
Hello all So looking at a potential set of wheels for the summer, and it's not one I've seen too often. Found a '46 caddy convertible for sale...
Sounds like a friend of my dad's. Guy's fortunately still alive, but forty years of painting and body work at GM made it so he's borderline on...
Where has this thread been all my life? Here's two that I'm looking at. It's a bit snowy here for test drives, but doesn't hurt to dream, right?
Looks like a comfy Sunday afternoon
Oh for sure. I did a very quick look through hemmings last night and pre 30s cars can be quite affordable, which surprised me. I think I just...
So this looks wild, but I'm just picturing these old cars going on trails where I take my Jeep (or any trails up here really), and I'd be on edge...
Found it listed on the local facebook group...
Good question. Tried calling but never got a reply. Will try again tomorrow if you want to know.
Ok so I wasn't crazy that the top looked really off. AH well, so much for a possible deal.
Damn I thought it looked weird. Anything that gave it away it wasn't an original convertible?
[ATTACH] In a nutshell, I have no idea what it is. I assume from the style it's mid to late 30's, and the v8 emblem on the hubcaps that it might...
Those thin red line tires are so 60's!
Every won battle gets closer to winning the war!
Just wanted to say this is great advice.
My godfather used to own a RT/SE (I forget the model, but it was rare as hen's teeth). At my sister's wedding, he rolls up in a brand new Nissan...
Regarding the VIN had it verified with the Ford v8 group and the Canadian Auto Museum (they were crazy helpful), so I'm pretty sure that's good....
True that. Keep trying to get enough cash to get off this merry go round, but ya. Some of them. The '40 Plymouth sold like that week so that was...
It reminds me of how things were when cars were first coming out, all the different options for fuels and what not. Granted I don't recall...
Way I look at it, it doesn't matter if anyone else thinks your cautious or paranoid, if it works for you, that's all that matters.
So confirmed that it is original across the board thanks to the folks at the Canadian Auto Museum :)
So just fyi that number sends you to a weird sounding spammy auto person. Dailed 1800-565-3673 instead (Ford Customer Service), but they had...
I actually found a few more like it. All are Canadian. All of them are F1 trucks from the same era. And of course, no translator.
I included what I found on the passenger side of the firewall in one of the photos above (I think someone mentioned that's where it was.). Still...
Think they had a hot wheels that was like the original post?
For me I always found the "Ford is better! Chevy is better!" type of things to be something that was cringe in high school. For me, I'll take any...
The layoff notice that I received on Friday (I have some offers Im waiting for next week so I dont think that will be an issue for long.). Once...
Bout 20k USD
