46 Ford woody. Not sure if this is considered cheap, though. $6,000

This is a really good price for a woody!!

 

Holy crap, that car is already gone!!! Someone here buy it up?

 

Not me……​

 

I thought so.

I saw a similar year but very tidy woodie at GNRS earlier this year for sale for US$120,000 from memory. I figured that means that they cost a bomb to restore.....

 

@gene-koning I've contributed a number of the listings and I can tell you they were all from searches, not personally known unless specifically stated. I've tried listing a few of the things I'd like to move here and elsewhere, but wouldn't take advantage of this thread to bypass the normal classifieds. I know you weren't pointing at me specifically but rest assured I am just posting things I've found that I felt were low priced and interesting.
If I had more positive cash flow, I'd be looking hard at hauling the trailer out thru Vegas and up into Utah for that Model A.

 

It is probably a good thing I'm really not looking for anything.
And that I have no extra money.
And that much of this stuff is too far away.
And that I no longer have a means of dragging anything home.
Other wise I would probably be collecting a bunch of "stuff" my son and daughter would have to get rid of after my time has passed. There is already enough junk here for them to have to deal with then. My sister and I spent a good share of the early part of last year cleaning out my mothers house when she moved into the nursing home and passed a couple months later. She had less stuff then my wife and I have, we have started removing the things we no longer need. I sure don't want to add more to our collection of stuff that my son and daughter will have to deal with.

I do enjoy looking at this stuff that I don't have the ambition, or the knowledge, to find myself. This is a great thread for us lazy people! The old saying is "Looking doesn't cost anything, its buying stuff that costs you." applies to me these days. I have lots of reasons for just looking.

1942 Ford Army Field Ambulance Project - $1,950 (Central Phoenix)

 

Ephrata Pa??

 

Nope, Washington, between SpoCompton and Seattle. Just a few hour drive from me.....I need another truck like another hole in the head, but it sure looks like good daily beater material.

 

Very cool - somebody needs to get this thing

 

About a 1940 Plymouth 4 door sedan. At the very least, the steering column is not original. Looks like a lot of stuff may be missing as well. More complete versions at nearly the same price are around.

 

An hour away from my house, maybe I should go look.

YOU GUYS THAT SAY IT'S ALWAYS A DODGE (OR PLY OR MOPAR). YOU NEED TO BRUSH UP ON YOUR CAR ID.


It's a 1947-8 Ford. Check out the gas door and the dash.

 

Uh, I think that's a joke.
An inside joke...

 

FUN FACT: I used one of those trunk lids for the rear wrap-around on my homemade Hot Tub body, virtually untouched by a hammer and dolly. I even left the hole for the latch mechanism intact on the inner structure.
Food for thought for anybody wanting an easy rear panel for a tub, RPU, etc.

1950 Dodge 4-dr Lincoln, NE
$3500. (side note; I drove one exactly like this except for the hood, and lack of WW, for 3 yrs of HS in the 60’s….hated it with a passion
but it was a hand-me-down…so no cost)

Dang that dodge looks clean. It's even got the visor. Heck of a start to a project for someone.

 

On the ford a couple of pictures back id number will be on frame rail drivers side around the steering column.
