  1. Trying to stay under $10,000 This ad leaves a lot of questions unanswered. Driven 50,000 miles Automatic transmission Exterior color: Blue · Interior color: Black Rockford, IL Clean title Motor needs rebuild. Been stored for many years. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/681084780666004/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks
  2. Where in the world do they come up with these prices? 🥺
  3. These cars are cute in an insect sort of way. But not a $30,000 sort of insect.
  4. It's gone! That was one of those "look twice and your out of luck" deals.
  5. Not only is the split head an advantage to work on but having the distributor on top of the engine made keeping these engines in tune a much simpler task.
  6. Anybody ring up the Clampetts and let them know this is available? In their neck of the woods.
  7. All things considered I don't see this as a good buy. Too much money needs to be spent to bring this back to an acceptable daily driver.
  8. I just saw a rear window for one of these on market place for $600. I've never had to work on one but that's one piece of glass that looks like it would be a handful to replace. I was rear ended in mine twice totaling both the other full size cars. 65 Ford country squire station wagon and a 58 Ford Fairlane 4 door. I drove away both times and the rear window wasn't bothered in anyway. Just shows how strong a well engineered unitized body is. This is after being repaired the second time.
  9. Another $10,000 and under car. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/789707322916711/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks Driven 16,000 miles Manual transmission Exterior color: Green · Interior color: Fuel type: Gasoline This vehicle is paid off Clean title This vehicle has no significant damage or problems. Seller's Description This is a 16,000 mile original. It was painted probably sometime in the 60’s. It has only been restored as needed to keep it functional. It starts and drives just like it should. I have owned it for 30+ years now. Nice overall condition. Leave message.
  10. I don't think there is dual carbs hiding under that air filter. As the former owner of a 66 Formula S Barracuda I'm not aware of any coming with dual carbs from the factory. They did come with a dual point distributor though. I can tell you that you can put a lot of groceries in the back of one of these. Also I don't recall it ever getting particularly hot under that large window.
  11. I agree on the above assessments. The tires are easily reversed and looking good. I can understand the bias verses radial thing but its hard to beat the ride and handling of a quality radial. '
  12. Another under $10,000 car https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/940850100547803/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks I took this car on trade. It’s a super rare 2 door sedan version of a 1938 Chrysler Royal. It’s all original runs and moves. It does need brakes. $8,000 obo. The car is located in Quincy, Illinois. If interested please DM me or call 5seven 3 4 zero 6 seven 5 seven 3 thanks Randy. See less
