    Back to the program instead of towing discussion, both of these projects are of the desirable kind. Being on the north side of the USA/Canada border I can't really make an offer to buy due to massive exchange rate and covid-19 closures. 

    BUT if anyone is willing to get them into Canada at the Port Huron Mich./ Sarnia Ont. Canada I'll buy the Cadi flat top for $6000 Canadian dollars!

    That's tempting.  Not exactly sure how I'd set that up though.  I might have a prospective buyer more local, but I'll keep you in mind.  Thanks.

    Just south of New Smyrna Beach off US 1 ? The Turkey Rod Run in Daytona is on, that would be the place. You have a month to get sorted out.

     

    ps big thing in Florida: do you have a clean (unbranded and no lien) Florida title in your name for both ?

    That's the place.  I grew up there and still live about 30 miles north of there now, but I work 70 miles away from home in the OPPOSITE direction.  That, coupled with having 3 kids, I have NO free time.  I've been to the Turkey Rod Run a few times when I was a kid.  Might be a good resource.  I have a clean Florida title for the Cutlass.  The one for the Caddy, I have not found yet.  Still sorting through paperwork from my parents estate, but it's been really difficult to find the time.  Since it sounds like they'll be worth less than $10k together, I think I'd rather just get them off my hands and get the house cleaned out and sold.  I'm leaning towards Steve's idea, "say 3 grand on each and take your first offer".

  3. Ah, OK, thanks for the info.  The Biarritz was my dad's dream car, and he ALWAYS referred to it by it's full name, his "1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible"... A real mouthful to be sure.  He had the convertible, in great condition for a quite some time.  This was his project. 

     

    Any ideas where I would go to link up with collectors that would be interested?  I don't even know a ballpark estimate of what these may be worth... $2k?  $5k?  $20k?  No idea.

     

  4. I recently inherited these two cars.  I want to get rid of them and I don't know much about cars.  I doubt either one even runs.  Anyone think they're actually worth anything?  Or should I just either scrap them or sell them cheap locally?
