  2. Still for sale, slightly reduced (now $23K) https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/denver-classic-1942-lincoln-zephyr/7511787562.html Contact number: (303) 915-8036
  3. I do the same but generally stop at year 1951...most cars beyond that date are not of interest to me. The sad part is that hot rods and otherwise molested cars out number the ones we here are interested in by about 10 to 1.
  4. Soo French! It's rarely remembered that in the period between the end of WWI and the mid thirties, the French held the position in the automotive landscape held by the Italians in the 50's and 60's.

  6. I was impressed until they mentioned the repaint. Now I think it's about $25K High. Also, for $40K I'd expect hub caps! https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/d/norco-1940-dodge-business-coupe-low/7515096531.html All original 40 Dodge straight 6 flatty Business Coupe in excellent operating condition showing very low mileage for a car of this vintage.Owned and loved by the present owner for many years.This has been completely gone through to include all runing and driving gear.It's only repaint is showing an excellent shine against its unmolested interiorThis 3 on the tree flier comes with plenty of room for 3 across on the front seat and a trunk that would accommodate all the luggage you would need for a classic costal drive weekend. (910) 751-2372
  7. Probably high given what it needs but it would definitely be a fun car! (bad pictures!) https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/d/gilroy-1939-plymouth-convertible-rumble/7513787932.html 1939 Plymouth convertible with rumble seat. Car is mostly original except for new convertible power top. The car also has an older paint job and drives well. Car does leak water from water pump which I just ordered. Has New cloth wiring. Title in hand $40k 408206146seven
  8. I doubt the upholstery is correct but at this price it can be overlooked. https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/d/concord-1933-pontiac-economy-straight/7515224331.html 1933 Pontiac Economy Straight Eight Series 601, 2 Door Touring SedanAll original No modifications Mileage 75,000 Yes engine RUNS Drivable yes, locally (925) 788-0809
  9. That's what I'd try too, and you can set a reserve. I've been to most of the big auctions at Scottsdale and Monterey, your car could go that way too, but it's higher cost for sure!
  10. Nice looking cars! I did have a Model A in the past, and I am the care taker for my city's '25 Chevy, which allows me to participate in the local vintage Chevy club. An "A" would be a consideration, but it has some deficiencies; very high brake pedal effort and lower cruising speed. I've seen cars that are modified to eliminate both of those (I attended a "Hot for Hot Fours" meet a few years ago) so that is a possibility.
  11. Not Mine... https://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/cto/d/elmira-1940-packard-custom-formal-sedan/7514977602.html 1940 Packard 180 Formal Sedan 180$30,000 · 93030Rare and desirable top of the line for 1940 custom super 8356 straight eight Club sedan or formal sedanAll originalCar was known for years in Ohio as the Elephant because of its original metallic grey color rare in this body styleLoaded and complete Car was a running driving car before storage 2 years agoI shipped the car to Oregon to begin a restoration but the restoration shop Forman had a stroke and thankfully hadn’t started the restoration Car is as seen here when I bought it 2 years agoHate to sell this one but 2 many other projects force sale30,000 obo email: 62c2f6489f12393086ea5667a0436b12@sale.craigslist.orgCar comes with rust free front dual side mount fendersAnd lots of trim Car is in Oregon

  13. Not a fan of the paint...something tells me the upholstery might not be right either.... https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/d/el-sobrante-1941-packard-110-business/7514511490.html 6 cyl, 3 speed transmission.

  15. OHV Cadillac was a popular swap circa 1950. Briggs Cunningham ran Cadillacs at Le Mans in 1950 (finished 10th) after the governing body wouldn't allow his first choice: Fordillac ( 50 Ford with Cadillac engine). I agree it would be blasphemy in a pre-war Packard. Some cars are OK to modify, some are NOT!
  16. In the dim past I had a Model A. Now I'm thinking about another car for similar vintage, something between 1925 and early 30's. We're partial to the style of the earlier cars but we have two requirements: My wife must be able to drive it and it must be capable of travel in the slow lane on the freeway during light traffic conditions (cruise at 50ish). I'm interested in a driver, not a show car, and although we wouldn't want anything that looked like a hot rod, an "improved" Model A (better brakes and maybe overdrive) would work, plus the Ford has an active club which meets down the street. On the other hand a Buick or a Chrysler product seems much more car for the money. Buick also has a local club, but Chrysler has supposedly better brakes. A '30 Buick 46S that might fit the budget (+/- 20-25K)... We don't want a sedan but don't require an open car either. Smaller is better in my wife's opinion. I'm not against thinking "outside the box" ...we currently own a '51 Simca Sport. What do you think?
  17. Perhaps in another 6 months the price will be adjusted (although to get real it will require a big attitude adjustment by the seller)
  18. Certainly has a lot of "presence"! I edited the ad copy...use original from link to treat insomnia https://austin.craigslist.org/cto/d/rockdale-1929-packard-640-sedan-very/7514324044.html This car was owned for the last 53 years by a older car collector, where it was stored inside with his other cars. In 1990 the previous owner replaced 8 exhaust valves, 1 intake valve, 2 valve guides, block gasket, water jacket gasket, pan gasket, intake/exhaust gaskets and replaced the head studs and painted the motor, which there are pictures in the folder of all the work and receipts. Also replaced the complete wiring harness. The tank was sent off to be cleaned and sealed and it looks new. There is a folder with tons of receipts, parts, work, and old pictures of the work and the car. Still have the Packard's owners manuel and books. The transmission shifts like new and the brakes work good as well. This car is still 6 volt and cranks instantly and everything still works. The interior was redone back in the day and looks great. All the woodgrain in the car is in great shape and the interior light still works. Suicide doors for luxury of getting in and out easier. The inside is extremely comfortable and has tons of room. Rear luggage rack with suitcase trunk still there. The running boards are in great shape but the material on top shows its age a little. It's also got there lights added on the bumper to make it even brighter at night, they just need to be hooked up real quick if you want them to work. All the glass is good and the windows role down good. All the tires look great and also has the two spare tires. The hooga horn still works. This car has a amazing body underneath and all the way around. Its very straight and the blue looks pretty good but the black paint on the fenders show its age by having chips. 512-760-566FIVE I don't email or text much just call me.
  19. Do all the work yourself and you'll only be $10K in the hole
