  1. ps there is a 30 Graham eight on ebay motors as we speak. Might want to watch for somewhat of a comparison, though I doubt it will reach reserve, due to who it is listed by. an eight has a bit more desirability.
  2. I agree Auburn, but do consider that a model A has a great mkt for resale and availability of parts. A Graham? not so much. When your manifold cracks, where do you find one? You must fix it. Beautiful car..................................... for 15-20k, I would consider a Buick first. Parts are out there.
  3. thank you! very nice. With a little luck, Ill be getting one soon..........
  4. 12-15k cant go much higher, because it is an orphan car and you wont be able to find many parts for it. restoration could be far more regarding cost. Is this the car you really want? ask yourself that before buying. Looks nice.
  5. Restoration Specialties sells various styles of board mat-very reasonable. they are in PA
  6. cash cash and then cash.......................... wire next for long distance. no checks of ANY kind. they can ALL be easily forged. ps and meeting at any bank is an xlnt idea. safeguards you and the buyer.
  7. to the top........................................ another roadster in 850. coupe 650. sedan 450. rdz69@aol.com
  8. so Randy, brought the VT car home. there are good and bad points and in the end, it isnt an all original car, but-it will tide me over till I really find what I want. wouldnt have found it wo you. please pm me your full name and address and Ill do a search this week of some lit that I should have in the garage, to send your way. lost the right windwing on the way home, because whomever installed it, didnt put it on tight. also had a couple of snaps for the top pull out, because they used plastic glue on the wormwood, when installing the top. top was installed by Lebarron Bonney.
  9. Using any but the major transport companies I would want to know with absolute certainty that they carried insurance. be smart- carry your own. ask me how I know..............
  10. Ive used uship 3-4x and exlnt results and cheap too! I find it important to give good lead time for the hauler. Pricing ends up being better.
  11. That is an interesting idea that I'd not thought of and I'll look into doing just that. 20. sawzall from Harbor freight, couple of hand tools and an extension cord. Have done it several times............
  12. for starters.............. only 48 of them.........................
  13. fly in- rent a pickup one way and pull everything you want off for the day. head on home.
  14. so I just heard back and head is leaking.......... engine looks tired and VT would be fine, but the price would have to be in the 10k range, figuring it might need a new motor or rebuild. already have so many projects here......:0
  15. THANK YOU RANDY- THE 31 LOOKED GREAT AND I MISSED IT. JUST WROTE THE FELLA ON THE LAST ONE. I WAS JUST ABOUT READY TO THROW IN THE TOWEL. NEVER THOUGHT FINDING THE RIGHT A WOULD BE THIS DIFF. LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT HAVE A HEAD GASKET PROBLEM?
  16. just go to ebay-though the auction may be over at this point.............
  17. try the Ford Barn................
  18. dyna talking about the one that went large...................................... gold once hit 1900. for about a day................ not getting that today.
  19. an auction car sells for 50k...................big surprise. did you add in the auctioneers cut???????????????
  20. stock dropped below 200 yesterday............................. from 350 a yr ago.
  21. If I couldn't drive it I would sit and look at it ............. i CAN DRIVE THEM, BUT GET IMMENSE SATISFACTION FROM JUST LOOKING AT THEM DAILY. so many variations in this "hobby".
  22. Posted 9 hours ago A happy point to ponder: One of our local AACA region members had a big sale and dispersed most of his car collection. However, he lived well beyond that, to 100, and he and his wife even celebrated their 80th wedding anniversary. He regretted selling off his cars too soon! In the end, it is only money and in most cases..........................extra.
  23. drive sloooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! lol
