MrEarl 9,373 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) OK, let's try this again since some of the pics from the previous post weren't showing up. These are Photobucket pics and if seriously interested in seeing higher res pictures I can email them to you. While visiting Bob Coker last week he asked me to post his parts cars for sale for him. He doesn't feel well enough to do a lot on the computer etc, so he also asked that I help with answering questions etc. I will copy and forward any questions I don't have answers to or offers for purchase to him. What you see is what you get. I would not consider any of them to be project cars nor any of the engines as runners. There are no titles for any of the cars.Bob does not want to part the cars out but wishes rather to sell as whole and be removed from his back yard as soon as possible. They are located in Winston-Salem NC.I have no financial interests in the transactions and am merely helping Bob and Linda disperse of the cars. Please PM me with questions and offers. Serious inquiries only please.1956 Century 2 dr ht - $500 $400 $300 $200 SOLD Edited March 17, 2016 by MrEarl (see edit history) Link to post Share on other sites

MrEarl 9,373 Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Sale pending on the 4855 owners, are y'all missing the fact a couple of these cars have factory AC. If you ever considered adding AC to your car, the best way to do it is to buy a parts car with as much of the unit present as possible. That way you have a go by which is a blessing when trying to figure our all the routing of the various parts and tubing etc. I buy every '54 AC parts car that I can and have resold the AC out of all of them, typically for as much as I bought the whole car for. The 56 Estate Wagon has a lots of good parts. Pretty sure it is a dual exhaust car and those left side manifolds can bring half the asking price of the car. And the 4 BBL carb and intake the other half. Well maybe not quite but you get my drift. Edited March 22, 2015 by MrEarl (see edit history) Link to post Share on other sites
MrEarl 9,373 Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) BTT the 48 is still available. It does not have a 3rd memberdoes have a cool dash. Edited April 10, 2015 by MrEarl (see edit history) Link to post Share on other sites
smithbrother 605 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 That 48 dash would make a great BOOM BOX, encase the back, install a new small radio in the case, make a giant shoulder strap, and off to the car shows. Or hang on a wall after it has been restored, cool piece.I have a like new 46 grill I am presently making into a BOOM BOX. Dale in Indy Link to post Share on other sites
NC-car-guy 3,177 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 If I still had my 55 I'd be all over one of those parts cars for the A/C. Winston Salem is close to me (80 miles) and I have 3 acres. I would be willing to help if anyone wanted one but needed somewhere to hide the thing for now. I also know where there's a 55 special 4 door hard top, not far from winston salem, cheap with a title. Link to post Share on other sites
MrEarl 9,373 Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 how solid is that 4 door hard top Matthew? Link to post Share on other sites
NC-car-guy 3,177 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I've not looked in person (too scared the money would fly from my pocket). But I posted it just now on this forum.http://forums.aaca.org/f117/not-mine-55-4dr-special-391336.html Link to post Share on other sites
MrEarl 9,373 Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 Back to the top.I'm thinking of buying the 48 for the hood (sucker is a half mile long) to use as an awning on my barn man door and the dash as wall art with speaker. But surely there is someone who needs it whole or for spare parts that are bound to be getting scarce. Link to post Share on other sites

MrEarl 9,373 Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 I hear ya Matthew, 600 miles/10hrs/$180 round trip for me or else they would already be in my pasture. That coupled with low salvage metal prices sorta kills any deal for me. Link to post Share on other sites

56buickinga 56 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Somewhat interested in the 56 wagon Mr Earl can you repost the engine pic on that wagon? Matthew what would you charge to pick up that wagon and how long could it stay on you property? I'm in cleveland ga and it would take me a bit to get up to WS. Link to post Share on other sites
NC-car-guy 3,177 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I can't haul it directly, I don't own the equipment. It would have to be towed. You can store it for no charge Link to post Share on other sites

NC-car-guy 3,177 Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Never mind, I am mixing this wagon up with that one we had a thread on - on the Buick General forum. Wonder what ever happened to that one? I could use some 55 Buick A/C parts or at least someone should grab them, but I can't use the 4000+ pounds of Buick around them. LOL @ "the 4000+ pounds of Buick around them" And IF I get this 4dr hardtop later today I may go after one of these parts cars. Maybe we can work a deal on some A/C parts for you Link to post Share on other sites
