1969 Bradley GT - $6,500 (Jerome, ID) not mine
Leif in Calif replied to f.f.jones's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
Porsche heads won't fit a VW, and even if they did they'd be worth too much for little hp gain. -
1940 Ford Flower Car $140K F/B
Leif in Calif replied to Hudsy Wudsy's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
I used to live in a small town in the mountains. There was a mortuary, but with the small population, it wasn't a full time job, so the mortician also worked in the meat department at Safeway. He rented out the large garage at the back of his space to a mechanic, and that guy used to chase parts in the hearse. The bed in this vehicle would be pretty handy at Home Depot. -
Lots of pre-war cars here! I think it's about 1950 because at about the 3:15 mark, a Studebaker Commander goes by. One thing I found interesting is the complete absence of Stop Signs! https://www.facebook.com/daniel.swan1/videos/594105344953805

1917 Buick D45 Touring NOT MINE
Leif in Calif replied to Leif in Calif's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
What year did Buick start running an oil supply to the rockers? Did all GM change that year (Chevy is a similar design). -
Armored Brinks truck $9,900 not mine

Plus, if you restore the signage, you can park anywhere you want! They always park in the red zone. -
It says "Owner died, lost storage space". At first I thought this was really sad, but then I thought.. "Hey! he was still "in process", that's the way you want it, you don't want to run out of things to do". I probably WAS really sad for who ever has to deal with all he left! We've told our kids "Just get a dumpster".

I love the exposed valve gear, but I can only imagine how difficult it must have been to keep clean when nearly all roads were dirt! https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/cto/d/aromas-1917-buick-d45-touring/7430019913.html

'28 Chrysler 72 in Oregon $16,900 Not Mine
Leif in Calif replied to Leif in Calif's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
Well, that's quite interesting. Seems like a very nice car for reasonable money, but I guess this shows the lack of interest in 20's sedans. -
1920 Buick K45 Touring $7K Not Mine
Leif in Calif replied to Leif in Calif's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
Everybody says California is the worst, but I bought a '51 Simca a few years ago that had the wrong VIN (serial) number and wrong year on the title. It took a little effort (I had make an appointment for the Highway Patrol to inspect it) but the information I printed off the internet was sufficient to get it straighten out. -
