Location: little rock, AR		I had it listed on ebay and the pics are still up on ebay. I thought someone would want a RARE project car but I've been wrong before. I guess I could crush it.

Location: Perth Australia		I thought it would have gotten higher than it did

I have watched a lot of cars go through ebay and not reach reserve and not reach where I guessed they would get to either.

Can you still contact the bidders? I was thinking that perhaps you could negociate a price with the highest bidder?

I hate seeing cars like this one go buy, but not worth it for me to try to get a project car from over there, the shipping is to much.

Landed over here, at 5k buying, that car turns into at least a 10k investment (read gamble)

Location: little rock, AR		The car is worth more than $2100.00. I have some wiggle room to a prospect. There are very few of any verts around in the FL line. If someone wants to make me a REAL offer I'm a phone call away. Thanks for looking!!! By the way that pic of the Red Phoenix shows what one of these cars looks like finished. Thats one fine ride. Thanks for your pic.

Location: little rock, AR		I was just kidding about crushing. I throw a decent Convertible out there and I get a $2100.00 bid. And people think I'll take it. I at least got it out of the outside elements and stored inside now to keep it from going down hill any further.

good we had a guy around here crush better than 40 cars 60'2 and 70's stuff tried to save a few but he was so bull headed he wouldnt take $100 over what the crusher would give for parts cars. tons of good parts went to waste because of is PRIDE. sad sad sad days to see that. Best of luck maybe a lottery ticket would get it for me

Thats a darn sight more than the $300 you'll get at the crusher.

You make zero sense.

Location: Orlando		That seems like a very fair price to me. The car doesn't look to be in bad shape at all. But it is still a major project. I think this is one where it's not about the money, but about finding the right person to take on a very worthy, but very involved project. That take time, I guess.
Good luck. I wish I was looking for a project right now, but I'm already in the middle of a big one Any Forwordlook convertible that is salvageable is an extremely rare and worthy opportunity.

I've seen how hard and how long you've been looking for that stoneshield. I got a whole bunch of them laying about. If you can send me at least one good pic (to my private e-mail address only please) to show how it looks, you'll have one for free if I find the right one, and if you care to pay the postage

Location: Fredrikstad, Norway. (Europe)		Yes, mr. noname "Finsinthemirror" aren't we all amazed why an old project isn't sold for less then 10 K today. Cars that you could have for 1000,- to 1500,- bucks just a few years ago. A model that is often called "the ugliest car in American automobile history".

For a very special car, you have to find a very special person. I mean, since most people today do not seem to have an opinion of their own. It's what's "in", what's popular among the crown that counts Like the '55 to '57 socalled classic Chevys and the 15 to a dozen Mustangs.
