TexRiv_63 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Also pretty but only one picture? How does anyone expect to sell a car with no information and a very high price? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 By 1960 there were a lot of attractive makes & models of any kind of car available in a wide range of vibrant colors. A plain black 4-door sedan at a premium price might be a tough sell. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am the 3rd owner and the previous owner had it for 37 years and only put 900 miles on it. It sat in a garage most of the time in a old farmhouse. Black exterior with red interior that is in perfect shape. I am in the process of getting a new gas tank put in it as it has gas in it for years and i had the original tanks cleaned out and coated but decided to get a new one. I have been running it since last year to car shows. It gets a lot of attention. It has the Wildcat 445 Torque motor with the 401 Nailhead 325 hp. motor in it that is rare. Only thing it need is the wipers fixed. I never take it out in the rain so i never messed with them. May need a new wiper motor or maybe a fuse or a hammer to the wiper motor to get it working. The car only has 38000 original miles on it. Price is $21,995.00. Edited August 10, 2022 by 6T-FinSeeker (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buick man Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Late to the party but fellas, come on your a tuff room to work ... The car is a dedicated survivor and at 30k to boot. Many bonus points here throughout the car with minor fixes required. If you want a car with a max of replaced parts and items then buy a fully restored car but then again it wouldn't be a 30k survivor. The car is not selling cause no one in this market has disposable cash during these times and are hunkering down. Go over to bat and that crowd has too much disposable cash and love to buy such things like 7k trunk luggage sets and 4k timer watch sets and an assortment of shiny plastic European rides ... so go figure. Just my little mini rant 🤔 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancemb Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 I love the car. Great colors, IMO. If it was a flat top it would be long gone I think. Such high originality should command a premium to the right buyer, but not quite this much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_S_in_Penna Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 The price has bounced all around, from $20,995 to $27,995. The seller must be taking some bad advice. However, I think he's still in the wrong range. It should be in the 10's, not the 20's, and if he priced it around $12,000, he'd have a good chance of selling it readily. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
