ragtop4two Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Vl2, I noticed in one pic an antique cash register behind it on a bench. I'm not interested in buying it but I do know they are worth big bucks especially if they are brass. You may want to get it appraised if you are planning on selling it.

It’s not brass, it’s a silver color. It is a 1912 Michigan cash register, which is a lesser known brand than National. I looked into it at one time but it’s something I plan to keep. It works and only goes up to like $20 I think. Thanks for the the heads up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone interested will know everything about the '55 before viewing it. Can I gather the long 1955 E Bay heading is to get the attention of those looking for a variety of '55's ?

Thank you, my buddy Tim is the reason I haul cars to Oregon. He knows his stuff! He has his own collection and manages a new car Chevy dealership here. He is a certified appraiser for old cars, is always right on the money and has single handedly saved my life on several occasions! The title is standard on eBay. It’s a category that you choose and adds it to the heading. The only difference between the 3 is trim level, so they are basically search “keywords”. I have the Bel Air trim but the vin tells me it’s a 210. I spent the day posting links in various Facebook, tri-five and gasser groups. It’s trending at 150 views an hour, even in the one. 3600 views in 24 hours, 36 Bids, currently at $5,900. Hottest 24 hour listing I've ever had.

victorialynn2 Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 I also got a call from a collector in FL who made me an offer a little shy to end the auction this early. He’s still thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victorialynn2 Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 Saw my dad today. He doesn’t remember his cars or the two 4000 sq ft garages he had, but we did have a conversation about how he needs a bigger garage for more cars while he looked at car books. ?♀️? He’s doing well and very well cared for. ❤️ Nothing else matters. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC38dls Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 You’ve done well by your pop. If he’s happy and healthy that’s all good. Now look for that bigger garage! Dave S 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Tate Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Bless you for taking care of him. I've been there and know what you are going through. Give him a hug for me because I can't hug my dad anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being born and raised in Chicago and a lifelong GREENBAY PACKER fan maybe I should get your dad a proper hat.Even a SEAHAWKS hat would be better that that orange & blue ! Miss Victoria shame on you. Here I though you were good to your pop. -- BEARS geezeeeeee! Dave S Edited February 23, 2018 by SC38DLS (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Wildeisen Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Always a market for tri-5 Chevrolet's. Very easy to move if priced right. Glad to hear you have someone helping you out with the values of your families cars/parts/tools. Nothing wrong with wanting a bigger shop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also discussed his hat collection. “Never can have too many hats”. He had one on and was carrying another around with him. I threw out a lot of old hats. They lined the walls of his office and had many on the shelves and in closets. Trucker and cowboy hats mostly. Oh wait, maybe it is a Bears hat? I don’t know where it came from. ?

So many people have been a huge help. I could not have accomplished what I have without them. I have Tim to help price, list and sell the cars, and others in Texas who have helped load cars, move stuff, get cars running, etc. Then there are the friends who have driven and flown down from Oregon to help me with the cars, go to the dump, fix things, price and sell tools, etc. So lucky that the right people have been available at the right time. It’s nothing short of devine intervention. Edited February 23, 2018 by victorialynn2 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get what you give -- and it's plain to me that your dad raised you right! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
