Crazy stuff on Craig's List, eBay etc!!!

How much was it Torch? What is the engine?

When I saw it listed last night he was just fishing for offers Eman.
Now he has a price of 5 grand or OBO on it.
Rebuilt 350. Front disc breaks upgrade. New wiring.
He says the interior needs to be redone. The only interior shot was the one I posted. Looks like original to me and not that bad. Probably needs a headliner.
Those are the stock Pontiac Sombreros on it.
I would just give it a stance adjustment. Maybe throw the set of spotlights I have tucked away on it and drive the wheels off it.
Then in the long term a complete paint job??
I could see it in legit candy apple red with a gold metallic roof.😎
Or. A non metallic cream colored roof with a candy root beer colored body . That might come close to matching that interior 😎😎
Going to be interesting to see how long it stay for sale.
A guy can dream.....

Spotted this gem on FB market place.
1928 Packard 526 sedan.
This was Packards response to slumping sales during the Depression.
6 Cylinder engine. Looks very complete. This would make a fine cruiser.
$3000

That is SWEET. Does anyone know if it would have wood body framing or steel?

And Termites most likely......
Since its so close to me I'll keep an eye on it.
Perhaps next time I'm in that area Ill go look at it.
My vision would be to leave the patina the way it is and then a haircut.
Still dreaming.........

Maybe if they had paid $91,000 for the build, they would have painted the driveshaft.

Cool car but definitely not very usable.

Cruising the classifieds during my lay up.
Spotted this little Gem.
36 Ford 5 window.
Some one did some serious old school customs stuff to it.
LaSalle grill. Filled grill surround. Solid hood sides. 40 Chevy headlights molded in. All good stuff.
All it needs is a bit of a hair cut.[cl [

Guessing there was a nice price tag on it, too. I thought about the 40 Chev headlights for my 39, but I let some friends talk me into going with the stock lollipop lights.

Only 20 K skip. Lol
It does come with a fully redone modernized chassis too.
The guy that has it now has no idea about it’s history as he bought it from a widower.
