Typically cars trade for 50-75% of the public asks.

Nice car!!

Project cars are the very hardest thing to sell these days. Even the rare and desirable ones.

Hmm. I can't see to find the link on Mecum's website anymore. Wonder if it was withdrawn?

I think we might have this already somewhere. But it is cool enough to get another thread. https://www.prewarcar.com/314068-1932-lincoln-kb-v12-custom-coupe-coachwork-by-judkins Chassis #: KB 1635 Engine #: KB 1635 Mileage: 42,612 Transmission: Manual Exterior Color: Ford Dark Tan over Black Fenders w/ Brewster Green Reveals For offer is an elegant 1932 Lincoln KB with custom coupe coachwork by J.B Judkins. Judkins first came to the market as a small carriage builder in 1857. Judkins produced custom bodies for several prominent manufacturers, but Lincoln was their primary client. Less than 30 examples were built of the ‘32 KB Coupe, with only three still known to exist today. This Coupe is believed to be the only example in existence with a rear-mounted spare tire. This unique styling offers graceful flowing fenders from front to rear, a completely different look than it’s side-mounted companions. The fit and finish are impeccable including a padded leather roof, foldable windshield, and roll-down rear window. The doors close and latch effortlessly. From the Greyhound mascot, all chrome finishes are in perfect condition. The luxurious cabin is accented with wool broadcloth, burled hardwoods, a black leather button bench seat, and is suitable for a 6 foot+ driver comfortably. Unique features include an optioned full-size trunk with golf bag storage, overdrive, and Lincoln's power-assisted braking system! The Lincoln underwent an extensive restoration to Concours specifications roughly 10 years ago. It has been meticulously maintained ever since. The undercarriage is as nicely finished as the exterior. It has been praised for its originality and correctness by numerous Lincoln specialists. This Lincoln was noted for its smooth and extremely quiet engine. One expert even went as far as to say, ‘At idle you could truly balance a quarter on the engine block’. Under the bonnet is secured a thermostat that automatically controls the beautiful louvers stretched down either side of the hood. Notable mentions include a debut on Wayne Carini’s ‘Chasing Classic Cars’, and a first place Senior Winner judgment at the Classic Car Club of America National Competition. This is a unique opportunity to bring this immaculate 12-cylinder Lincoln to the Concours field for the very first time.

The 32 Light Eight is attractive with any of the bodies. Compare with some other 32s for sale recently:

The 15k seems unrealistic, but somewhere under 10k it would be a worthwhile musclecar project (if it is as clean as it looks). As a general rule, I believe nothing about a car for sale that is not documented reliably.

Far be it from me to disagree with Ed on a Pierce Arrow question, but I drove this up and down the driveway and it feels very different than your typical 1930 ish big Classic to me. Still very cool, and probably a ball on the back roads at 30-35 Mph.

So after replacing the entire shift harness on the Cord, replacing the interlock switch, rebuilding the clutch switch and selection switch, I've narrowed things down to either me being an idiot, or the problem is actually in the solenoid bank. I sleep at night knowing that all the previous work was probably worthwhile given the restoration was done over 50 years ago. Then shifting to 3 or R with the interlock switch in the middle spot I should be seeing the vacuum gauge on the right showing 45 and I'm getting zilch. Good vacuum on the left gauge going to 4th. The positions of the shift lever are , Left side: 4th on top, Middle:2nd on top, Neutral, 3rd on the bottom, Right: Reverse on top, 1st on the bottom.

Agreed. I like the longer look of the 66/67 and the engine options on the 66.

Nice. Congrats.

Your blood should be thin enough that 90 feels like 60.

If you haven't already done so, join the RROC, sit on top of the newsletter each month and do an introduction and want ad in their forum. Become buddies with the Silver Cloud guys so that when a private one is gong to spring free they think of you.

In my quest for a 66 GTO Convertible that started when I was 15 I've looked at a lot of cars. This one is indicative of 95%. Ignoring that it is a 65 for a minute, you can get excited by the pictures (although I'm not a huge red fan) and will be let down somewhere in the details. In this case it is when you get to the 455 engine. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1965-Pontiac-GTO-/303964981993 1965 PONTIAC GTO CONVERTIBLE TRUE PHS (PONTIAC HISTORICAL SOCIETY) DOCUMENTED GTO!

I'm wondering how many besides the red one have survived? Here is an Alvis with a Vanden Plas body.

Nice! Good luck. Typically I like to see 3 paragraphs of history about the car company and only a sentence about the actual car for sale.

My stream of consciousnesses echoing some of my friends above: 1. Stutz is cool and has a sport element to it. I think you can get a decent AA or BB for under 100k - but not a M, SV, or DV. For a small club the guys are fairly supportive. 2. I was fooling around with a Pierce Model 80 doctor's coupe for Ed so I have a bit of experience. It is not as big or high end as what you commonly expect from Pierce, but you should be able to get one for less than a similar Stutz or Packard. It is a relatively simple car and the club is supportive with lots of activity. It won't be as fast as something from 5 years later. 3. Size matters and the point about fitting in the car was a good one. 4. Much like buying IBM, it is hard to go wrong with Packard. If roll up windows are not an issue, I would aim for a 33/34 Standard Eight Packard. 5. Again with the roll up windows, that 32 Caddy Conv Coupe that was for sale on here for a long time was a great car - I think it finally sold on BAT for around 60K. I think Ed will say avoid the earlier Caddy as they are technically a challenge to maintain. 6. Another good option is a Studebaker President Roadster. You should be able to get a decent 31 for under 100k. The 32 is made of unobtainium. In the non Hyman market, you can find one of these for under 100k and you get a OHC straight eight. https://hymanltd.com/vehicles/6640-1928-stutz-series-bb-two-passenger-speedster/

Don't see many that are not Red or White. https://www.ebay.com/itm/265136439479 Purchased from original owner. Was in storage 25 years. Took it to a resto shop and asked them to make it safe, reliable and clean. $20,000 later it’s in my garage. Have three pages of work done. See pics. New top alone was $4500. Could use another paint (2nd paint was done 30 years ago) and reupholster the seats. Or, do as I do, drive it and have fun! Frame, floor, have no rust, body is 99% rust free. Just a tiny area by one wheel trim. Car is kept in a garage when not being used. Car is all original except for one repaint and new top. This car floats down the road. You can drive it 500 miles and not have a problem. I have over $25,000 in the car.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/154434905198 I would try posting this up in the general for sale section.

I hate that feature too.

Assuming the story is true every town has a car like this in the 70s. Ours was a 65 Vette that sat next to the parents garage in to the 80s. I like that the car looks rust free - not sure where the interior photos are. https://www.ebay.com/itm/254955286440 This car belonged to a U.S Navy Pilot. He never made it back defending our country. RIP #HERO. It’s been stored at his parents farm in California since 1978. I recently purchased that property and found this 1968 Javelin in the barn. No joke! The China Lake Navel Base stickers are still on the bumper. I cannot afford to do the right thing and restore this rare, American mucle car, back to it’s former glory. An American fighter pilot left this car behind to serve his country! WOW. I know it’s only worth 15k in its present condition. I will sell it if I have to. My goal is to have a show on cable tv or someone better off than I am, do the complete restoration for me. I will auction the car off and donate the money to a charity of our choosing. Come on car guys.

I was trying to see what were good parts on this. The spoke wheels? Looks like it might have cooked. I like the last sentence. https://www.ebay.com/itm/233987063149 This is a very rare car. Needs a Complete Restoration or make a cool Street Rod. Does have a clean California title, But there was a misprint in the ID.# title reads 2075099 , should be 207099. Will come with a Bill Of Sale. Being Sold As Is. Has rust has dents, don't know if motor turns over, missing carbs, intake, starter Ect. What ya see is what ya get. To be paid in full in 7days. This baby is begging to be restored.

You will see a raider for sale once in a while. Looks scary sitting in it. Most fun in the world is 13 year old in a snow storm at 10PM at night gunning it down main street in the pre 4x4 days.

Looked exactly like this. And the Artic Cat in the background looks just like my buddies.

A knew a kid in HS that has one of these. And no, he didn't drop a 260 or 289 in to it.
