Search engine

This search engine gives you all of the Craigslist for the topic you choose. I typed in "Buick Riviera" (Buick keeps all of the Riviera water skiis out of the search) and the radius of the distance I wanted to look. The search engine goes from your zip code and give results from your location. (I found out that some places in Western Kansas are farther from me than some places in IL.) I did not limit the radius and quit before I got to the end. Lots of stuff out there, parts and cars. Happy hunting. There's a really nice '68 GS in Omaha for a good price.

I check through searchtempest every other day (still hunting for a nice '15 summer cruiser); have you noticed that 67 Riviera GS in Pocatello, ID? Posted already 22 days ago and still for sale; wonder what's wrong with the car cause it hasn't been sold yet.

Found it again:

Could be partially the remote location. Just not a good time of year to sell a classic in the snow belt. Proves that decent cars can be found for reasonable money if one is patient. Winter in ID can't be fun and with an asking price of $6500 or BO one might obtain that car for $5k or even less if they showed up with cash in hand. Probably needs some interior work. If the body and floors are solid that could be a great deal for someone willing to go get it.

The seller is also advertising only in the local market that Jason references. Pocatello, ID has a population of just over 50,000. Not much of a buying market. Makes you wonder what might happen if the seller went national like on eBay. Or, better yet, advertise to a specific interest market such as the membership of the ROA. A classified ad in the Riview could turn up a buyer in the south who'd love to have it.

Who knows?????
