1955 Century Convertible $13,500 Wisconsin
B Jake Moran replied to B Jake Moran's topic in Buick - Buy/Sell - Not Mine
Wow. I followed that car until it said SOLD. There was disagreement on this forum regarding value/will it sell won’t it sell. -
We disagree. There are 56 Chevy convertibles that have sold for $100,000, now more like $50,000 to $75,000. This Packard is likely priced about right, a little high. The issues have more to do with an aging group of potential buyers. Packard fans are loyal and I am sure 56 Caribbeans are/were on their bucket lists. But this seller misunderstands the greater market if he thinks pointing out obvious 56 Caribbean facts will draw in a salt and pepper haired recent retiree looking to scratch a collector car convertible itch- most don’t care.

1947 Packard Clipper - $55,000 OBO
B Jake Moran replied to Leif in Calif's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
Yes I think it’s a re-post which is okay. -
It's hard to tell in the changing landscape of old car values whether $73,000 is high or not. Obviously, if a person is going to drop $70,000 then a personal inspection is in order. It qualifies as rare on many fronts. Last year for a true Packard. The flagship Packard for that year, and a rare color combination. Being yellow and black in the Hawkeye state would be a win. But light yellow, despite rarity, is not a great color for this year. That pink, some reds, dark blues are why this is so rare. Most high end luxury makes from 1956 still draw good dollars I believe but must be among the best restorations or originals and well sorted. I can see a 1956 Cadillac convertible going for $55,000 to $80,000 but $80,000 better have receipts and be flawless.

Easy pass. Sorry for the car.

Those aren’t silly at all. -

To me it’s a very attractive car that has seen a lot of care. I am one of the few out there that like tans and beige cars. Look at how the chrome and stainless pop. -

Thanks Steve! I did not know that but it makes a lot of sense. Early postwar anything a manufacturer made sold. And why bring in an 8 cylinder ? Number 2 is my knowledge that Nash’s bathtubs were all 6 cylinders. -
For Sale on eBay - 1949 Buick Roadmaster Sedanete
B Jake Moran replied to Dan O's topic in Buick - Buy/Sell - Not Mine
No doubt you may be correct because it does not appear to be body color of green but I recall my Roadmaster and many more I have seen to be almost a “hammered” metallic grey. But admittedly it’s been maybe 10-12 years since I have seen a 49 Roadmaster. -

Looked at the additional photos, it’s a 6 cylinder. Lose the stupid headlight brows. -

Depends on if it’s a 6 or 8 in my opinion. $20,000 is too much for a 6. $20,000 is likely too much for an 8 but to a Nash collector maybe not. -
(3) Marketplace - 1920 Dodge 30 | Facebook If the ad is up, the car is still for sale - tis a 1920 Dodge Brothers touring car model 30. Restored in the late 1980s with a full documented engine rebuild, new interior, new roof, new paint, tires and tubes, and all body work done. The car has sat for a number of years and although it starts and drives it does need a carburetor rebuild. The horn also is tired. I am out of space and need to sell the car, but this would be a great parade car or cruising car for anybody. Very solid and complete, clean title. Rarer version of a 20's classic to challenge the Model T Ford

I love it too. My favorite color in a rare car.
