  1. When you ask me the Rolls-Bentleys till the end of the fifties are better than the sixties cars and then in 1965 they start the new model and thats to much for me .I am happy I have the 6-cilinder model and thats easy to work on .The V8 was not an improvement quality wise
  2. I am one of the few who is happy with an englisch car: a 1958 Bentley. Bought it in Philadelphia by accident .(As i was not looking for one )Took it home , new exhaust , repair brakes and power steering and since then it did not let me down .It even has a exclusive option : Pick nick table and seats on the bumpers .( Radford option)
  3. Driven 777 mls ?? Since new ? Since restoration ? Its in anyway a very good looking car .Is this model year 1948?? Rather 1949 if you ask me .
  4. Sometimes you run into a money pit with your eyes wide open and sometimes the money pit is very well hidden but in this case you can see it with your eyes wide open .But love is blind !
  5. This ad is 5 weeks old and woud still be available ?? Doubtful .....
  6. This car should have been sold at the first day it come available .This is an icon in the automobile history , if i was not in Belgium i would have done it .Imagine such a piece of history in your barn .
  7. If I was not in Belgium ans so far away i would have bought this car already at this giveaway price .Could be a scam also !
  8. D2, you should only keep it when you like to do that for 100%, otherwise its not a good idea .Its like being married to wrong girl , you will divorce one day sooner or later .
  9. BAT is the best place to sell a car , nowhere else will you get more money ,as a buyer its best to sit in your sofa have some coctails and have a bidding war with other buyers.
  10. Such hood ornament is forbidden in Belgium and other Euro countries .To sharp .If you hit a pedestrian and he is stabbed you will end up in jail .
  11. Are you sure this really excists ? I guess it owned by a person that works on a drilling platform and he will send the car to you after you have paid for it .
  12. The worst front end in my eyes is the 46-47 Hudson .If i didn't know the model i could never have guessed this was a oldsmobile .
  13. Very good price .Many people run around a car that needs paint , some chrome work and a worn out interior and that is for sale for let say 5-8.000$ .It will cost a lot more than this one and will not nearly be as good as this one .
  14. This car is to good .I would be deadly afraid to drive it on the street in todays traffic .One scratch and and its virginity is lost for ever .Long time ago i had 1958 mercedes with 28.000 km as new and i sold it because i was to afraid to drive it .Now it sits in one of the the best Mercedes collections from the world and i am very happy with it..
  15. They say converted to 8 volt battery ?? Is the generator also working on 8 volt then ? All the lamps also because otherwise they will burn out .I am confused ...
  16. You can find them everywhere : Hemmings -Traders -Auctions etc ..Of course we all look for the holy grail .
  17. There is one for sale in Belgium also.A 835 1932 4-door completely restored .They painted the motor bright yellow , i have no idea if that was original .
  18. Unbelievable!This car needs another frame ...It looks like a nice car at first sight and not much rust to see .Then i read that Fomoco products from 1965 on can have frame damage .Very good to know ! I learn everyday .At the same time i forget everyday also when you are born in 1948.I had my lesson with a Mercedes i bought that came from Canada .It was looking very good at first sight but it had very bad rust hidden in the bottom .I had to sell it with a loss as i am not such a good welder
  19. Sometimes you will see 1 stone to block a wheel but this time you find 4 stones to block all the wheels ...Remarcable
  20. Cadillac Carl ! Did he pass away ? I called him several times and had a good conversation with him .i am sorry he is gone .
