Is there anyone in or near Myrtle Beach, SC that could look at a car I'm interested in? I'm in MN and that's a little too far to drive and look at it. I could pay you something for your time. DON'T NEED HELP ANYMORE. Thanks to those that offered.

Not mine. Maybe someone here would want it. 3rd Generation heirloom - Barn find!! Sleeping classic prewar 1923 Maxwell (Touring). She's a beauty just waiting for you to get her running and drive in a parade or car club perhaps?? ☛ Engine manually cranks easily and has been turned manually on a regular basis ☛ Have letter written by my grandfather including his wishes, with photos of him and my mother ☛ Have a classic advertisement poster ☛ Original parts including tire tools, glass, even the original wood floors ☛ In incredibly well preserved original state ☛ Slight surface rust only ☛ Extra original crank lever ☛ Needs new tires (rubber) which run around $200 a piece. Negotiable on how we might handle the tire situation. I know of one particular brand which is commonly used but felt I should give the buyer a choice, as I am no expert.

The J198 may be for 1978, not 1968. I believe the 010 block was cast/used through 1979 & I think there is a KS suffix code is 1979 also except it would be CKS.

Wrong. The Z28 302 was an 010 block, but the engine ID suffix code for the Z28 engine is DZ, not KS. He may be mis-reading the code - HS instead of KS. In that case it's a 255 hp 350 in a Nova or Chevelle.

The no title will make the Studebaker more difficult to sell. It would make sense to me that the family or their attorney apply for a title or claim "lost title" and get a new one. It will make the car more saleable and the actual sale of it far less complicated to the seller and buyer.

Yes, but it's all original & nearly complete iron oxide.

Brian, You must be watching your post here since you replied to SparkEE above. I'm curious as to why you haven't replied to my post/request. For your convenience, here it is: BrianBuckley , Call me a skeptic, but how about a little proof of your story. Post some photos of the rare GTO you bought & of this car, cleaned up & running. In a previous post, you started out "you won't believe this". No, I don't & I'm sure others here don't as well. Prove me & the others wrong. Thank you, George Smolinski

I thought you'd like my reply, Jack.

Questions - Are you Art Miller since your ad says you purchased the car? Or are you selling it for Art Miller? For $105,000, can you post better photos of the car? The ones posted don't do it justice.

Price is the biggest factor with location right behind it. The reasons for fixation on the two are some sellers think their car is worth way more than what it really is so why waste time dealing with them and I sure as heck don't want to get all excited about buying a car only to find out it's 2000 miles away from me or somewhere in S. America.

Sometimes you don't know it's an Ebay ad UNTIL you click on it. Here's an example I just found: 1913 Reo Roadster (barn fresh) There isn't even a link to Ebay, just the item number.

I realize some posts are from members that don't own the car, but put it on here in case someone here is interested. Sometimes you can't tell one way or the other due to so little information. If you're posting because you don't own it & spotted it elsewhere, there are 2 little words that will clear that up - NOT MINE. I've used them numerous times. I like the suggestion Ronnie made about CL ads. I suppose Ebay ads could be handled the same way.

The "Cars For Sale" forum here seems to be attracting more Ebay sellers than previously. Post 1 photo, include the link & don't supply any other information. It would be great if you couldn't post without price & location. I've seen other sites where that info is required; no info, you can't proceed. I've also seen sites that delete ads with improper or missing information. Can we petition the admin to change the posting rules so price & location are required to proceed with your ad?

This guy emailed me about parts I have for sale. I Googled his company & it appears he's a scam artist. His company & email are: FUAD TRADINGS LLC <wert8hvhhlll@gmail.com>

Looks like it is done very well. Probably has crowds around it at shows.

Does anyone know who this guy is? I've not seen any post other than of a car he has for sale & the link to Ebay. All his posts are like this, no price, one photo, no information. It appears he is another dealer on the site.

Tom, I sent you a PM.

Nick, More information & a photo or two would be helpful. What make and model, how many miles, engine size, etc. A '68 Mercury 4 door with a 390 engine is probably not worth the effort, but a '68 Mustang with a 390 may be.

The name Rube Goldberg comes to mind when looking at the photos of that contraption.

That collection I posted about before is now posted on MPLS CL. https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/cto/d/collection-of-classic-cars/6701617273.html

How about this one for $16,500? Ad says: "well-documented and maintained through the years" Supposedly 31,400 miles. Or this one for $5500? Ad says: "1941 Packard 110 Business Coupe, Series 1900 with flathead 6 cyl engine and 3 speed on column."
