3macboys Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 I couldn't quite decide where to post this but it's too good/bad not to share - It's not quite cars for sale - not mine, I can't say that it's parts, maybe the ultimate low rider??? Anyways I just stumbled across this listing this morning. If a picture is worth a thousand words.... https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/8476604505688439/ All this can be yours for a mere $3500 Canadian! But wait there's less! 1 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Dave Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) Great Crusty Critters....Call the scrap man. 🤣😂🙃 Put that poor thing out of it's misery. Looks like it sat in a pile of salt. Edited May 18 by Dandy Dave (see edit history) 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryankazmer Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Windshield, top bows, trim around the top well, any little stuff you can remove. The rest is somewhere between scrap iron and compost 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Skelly Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 "1960 impala good for 4 door to convertible conversion. Will not separate selling as a whole. No tags" Selling as a whole what? It would be interesting to find out the circumstances as to how it ended up like this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketraider Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 This Impala has unseated a 1969 Camaro Pace Car as the most overpriced piece of crusher bait I've ever seen. The Camaro (in similar condition) was for sale at a Charlotte AutoFair back in the 90s, priced at $2500. The only salvageable parts on it were the VIN and body data plates indicating Pace Car replica, which were what you were buying. And damned if it didn't sell. So, somewhere in this world, there's yet another bogus high-dollar 69 Camaro running around, that didn't start life as what it's claimed to be. Y'all ARE lining up to buy the Impala, right?😛 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryB Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 You guys up north should cut some of that extra salt out of your diet😀. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
60FlatTop Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Never deny the potential buyer the opportunity to make his purchase. Those who throw out what they call trash usurp the buyer's right of that opportunity. That philosophy has worked well for me. Even though I am the one who gets stuck with paying for coffee when I meet with certain friends. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusty_OToole Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 As a Canadian, this looks like a typical Ontario used car that has been driven on salted roads every winter. Also the price is comparatively reasonable. If it had fenders, wheels, floor, engine etc you could tack on another zero to the price and it still would not be as high as some I have seen.

plymouthcranbrook Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 That “car” reminds me of a Kruse auction I attended in the mid 1980’s where the main tent had a pile of parts in similar condition. Apparently a rare sports car from the mid 1930’s. The owner turned down an offer of $60,000 US and as far as I knew toted it back home. I thought at the time it was a $100 parts car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Wells Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) Yard art! It would look great in Phoenix with lots of rocks and cactus placed around and in it. Edited May 18 by Dave Wells (see edit history) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldcarfudd Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 For that price the house should be included. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank DuVal Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) I used to attend the City of Richmond abandoned vehicle auctions around 1980. They dragged in a 1960 Impala convertible that had been stolen very early in its life and driven into the canal in Shockoe Bottom. I remember it sitting partially submerged as a child. That car brought a whole $10 in the auction, and I would say way more restorable than this one! At least all the parts were there....🤣 And the auction would give you paperwork to get a title too!

Billy Kingsley Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 How is the dashboard in such good shape compared to the rest of it?!? The chrome "airplanes" on the side also look in remarkably good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you get barnacles, coral and sponges to boot! Billy, Impala side trim was stainless steel so not surprising it held up fairly well. The aluminum used on the lower series cars wouldn't have. Hmm. 1980. Wasn't that about time Shockoe Bottom was being reclaimed by the hipster gentry? Can't have a finny old derelict car detracting from the view, can we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
