64avanti Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 There is a 55 Chevy Belair 210 Wagon in Clarkson Washington that I am interested in. However, I am on the East Coast and the Car is on the West Coast. Obviously, I won't bid on or buy the car sight unseen, so if anyone out there is willing to check it out for me or recommend someone in the area who could I would greatly appreciate it. I will, of course, be willing to pay for your time. Thanks. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JACK M Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Clarkston is Right across the border from Lewiston Idaho. I am a few hundred miles away, so not practical for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Carl Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Ben, (Beemon on the Buick forums - 1956 Buick) is sometimes in Pullman which is what ? 35 miles or so North. I just sent him a heads-up P.M. asking which side of the mountains he is on. Told him of the need for an evaluation in Clarkston. He may be awfully busy, but really knows his stuff. - CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark's contact emailed me, then we spoke at length. He was out of town, but knew a fellow in the area who could go take a look at the car. The car checked out fine; apparently, the fellow who checked out the car knows his stuff, and he even provided an estimated value for the car. The auction is over and the car is not sold, as the reserve was not met. I must say that I am very impressed with how great the members of this group are!! I got a great deal of help from people whom I have never met. Mark's contact was friendly and extremely helpful. Everyone involved was great and no one wanted anything for their time! I will gladly pay it forward. Anything I can do for anyone, just ask. A huge thank you to everyone !! John 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trulyvintage Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 (edited) Back in 2010 when I was pulling an open trailer - I delivered this wagon to that same town .... I have a photographic memory for most hauls. This wagon was used as collateral on a business loan that defaulted - it had a lot of money invested in it. I picked it up in Pennsylvania - it sold very cheap. Jim Edited May 29, 2019 by Trulyvintage (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
