Hopefully the seller isn't a forum or BCA member and insulted by your post. Not everyone in our hobby has the same educational backgrounds. The "year" is correct lower in the listing. Somehow, it's not amusing to me.

If anyone has any interest, this car is about 10 miles from me and I may try to look it up Monday anyway. I wonder what the reserve is. Also, I wonder where it was parked. The front looks pretty good, but the back must have been open to drips amd standing water, sun, etc.

If you want some info after a look, e-mail me at j.scheib@comcast.net. I will see what I can do.

Okay then ,
I totally apologiz ! I really was not laughing at the guy , honestly . In fact I'm so dum I did not even realizethat he meant"compass[if that is the correct spelling!].
So if I offended anyone including you kieth I'm sorry .One of my own posts here was actually subtitled by the moderator; "some really bad spelling", so mabye me and the other guy are related!
The last thing I want to do is make anyone feel bad .
Hope you are all haveing a great weekend , I'm off to the drive-in to see Convoy and Six pack Annie .
See ya.
Paul.

That's cool Paul, we've all said things that at some point we think "now why the heck did I say that". Me practically every day
So what drive in you going to. There's none left around Athens.I watched a "good" ol' classic this morning on TV. Vanishing Point. Those early 70's movies are so funny and cool to watch these days.

Hey Lamar,
We went to the Starlight six drive-in on Moreland ave.
http://www.starlightdrivein.com/
Its about four miles south of I-20 on Moreland , seven nights a week around 365 a year , six screens with two movies per screen per night for SIX DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!
Lots of fun. And funny you should mention Vanishing point because they showed the trailer for it and a few other car chase movies tonight including ; White lightning , The gumball rally and Gator bait (though thats not really a car chase movie). Anyway it was a blast , Convoy was way more entertaining then any of us expected.
"Mondo movie night" is the old classic movie series they run on the third Sunday of the month , I can't recommend it enough .
See ya there.
Paul.

Don't know about a "cumpas", but here in Detroit we have what's known as a "copalean" [cop-a-lean]

Took me a while to find out this was a center armrest
