no one has posted, nor can I find an active link to, a 1969 Chrysler 300 on Craigslist/Spacecoast - so I'm assuming it was deleted shortly after it first appeared it might have been this link: https://spacecoast.craigslist.org/cto/d/cocoa-1969-chrysler/7718382316.html (((but this post is deleted)))

And the seller description (Not Mine)... quote Beautiful 1958 Buick Century,4dr no sedan, outstanding original condition with 1 older repaint. Original green mist metallic color.

You copied the Link to the post - well done... You should always clarify the car/post is : NOT MINE You can edit your post - in particular the title, to add the price and the location of the car (but you have it above - so well done...) I have captured some of the pictures - not all - the original post has close up shots of details and imperfections - but not great overall (current) pictures of the car (I presume the interior front seat is more current - owner did not move the car out of the garage). Thanks for posting!

Just for the records... Bid to US $18,401.00... Reserve not met

Unfortunately, for WW2 and older vehicles, there is a decreasing population of veterans with an interest in, ability to own and regularly drive such a car. And, in my experience, most veterans want to drive what they used in the service, so jeeps and trucks (and ambulances) seem to have a larger following. Looks like a lot of pride and attention to detail went into trying to keep this vehicle looking like it did when it was in service. To all veterans... thank you for your service!

Not Mine https://www.ebay.com/itm/266659395060?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5337851298&customid=697205&toolid=10001&mkevt=1 Seller Description: There is an adage that they are only original once. There is a tightness to this car that cannot be explained. Those who have owned survivor cars know what I am talking about. I have seen many of these cars resurrected from rust buckets. That isn't this car. A quiet effortless cruiser would be the best description. It is from my understanding likely one of the most original rust free caribbeans left. I’ve driven this car down the freeway many times and it is amazing. In fact I drove it down to the Keels and Wheels show every time I showed it there. Incidentally the car won when it showed there. One of 400 built. Extremely low miles (33622). Rebuilt ultramatic transmission. Original 359 straight 8 engine. Upgraded powergen 6 volt generator. Completely functional and driveable. New clothe soft top. The convertible top mechanism was professionally repainted when the top was redone. It is a power top and functions well. 100% European leather interior with wool carpets. No expense spared on this interior. The paint is as it was when I purchased the car 10 years ago. It is driver level and it looks to be the second paint job of this car. The radio worked when I purchased it but stopped along the way. It could be something extremely simple but it was not on my priority list. The chrome is original and presentable but could easily be sent off for plating if the next owner desires it. Why am I selling it? I am liquidating all of my classic cars. It is time for someone else to take the wheel. Not Mine - Auction ends in 3 days - - - More pics in the listing

Just 10k?

FYI - It's listed on the Dealer's website for $29,500 with about 20 more pictures at this link https://www.classicridesandrods.net/inventory.html?VID=96778605

Most of the cars I'd love to own exceed my budget, so, how do I summarize my 'bucket list': classic lines Why the clover icon, I've always had a sixth sense to quickly see these four leaf beauties' in the wild

Video of the find... https://www.facebook.com/AmericanPickers/videos/rare-1929-packard/719060145826437/ Was fitted with a tow truck in it's history - interesting video

The ad could be legitimate, but, the pictures being used are from 2018 or earlier. Evidently the car was sold circa 2018 and resided in the Midwest at the time. The sale was televised during an Americans Picker episode on January 2018. The current video is just shots of the same pictures appearing on the Packard Forum in 2018 - at this link: https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=20672 If you go to the AutoSeller website, it says the car is in: Louisburg, KS, 66053 AutoSeller is a residence in Omaha, NE Definitely a 'buyer beware' website.

That was quick: "This posting has been deleted by its author."

The original post asks: "Why can't there be at least an even mix of asking prices, low, intermediate, high, and ridiculous?" Some will interpret this as a complaint; some will see it as an attempt to influence future content of the site; and etc., etc., etc. Each person is different and each will have their own opinion of what the 'poster' meant and their own unique reaction to it based on that opinion. To me, I think the answer is fairly simple, but, it took more than three years of observation and participation on this thread in the forum to reach my conclusion (ok I'm slow). The answer: this is the Antique Automobile Club of America forum. Many on this forum are very knowledgeable about one or more car marques. In general, they prefer their cars to be as close to original as possible. Non-OEM modifications, enhancements, do-dads, etc. are frowned upon and simple things like continental kits and fuzzy dice appear to drive some members crazy. However, I happen to like hearing everyone's opinion, as I learn immensely. But, back to the answer to the question. Many of the 'low' price cars available have already been "messed with" (i.e. modifications, enhancements, etc.). If someone posts one of these, forum members highlight the deviations - some with finesse and some with fervor. As a 'poster,' it doesn't take long to find yourself deciding not to post a low car because of the easily anticipated forum reaction. My point is, what we see here cannot help but be influenced by how we react to what is being posted here. It costs hard-earned money to maintain highly original and well-maintained cars and owners do not see the other highly modified cars out there as an apples-to-apples comparison. So, should we be surprised to see that we 'err' on the side of posting better than average cars? I don't think so. As other replies have pointed out, we are all free to post whatever interests us, but, our collective reactions will either reinforce or dissuade whether a person posts again. Long live this forum
