Re: Old Newspaper Ads

Here is the first 1970 SS I bought from 1984 with it's original Autotrader ad (Mike Smith was the owner I bought it from).
Had the car from 1984 to 1997.
The bottom ad is my own ad I did in 1997.

Bought the car for $6800 in 84 and sold it for $13500 in 97.
Canadian built Oshawa Plant SS.

Re: Old Newspaper Ads

I especially like the C-28 for sale. You can tell these ads were taken over the phone by folks who didn't have a lot of car knowledge.

Reminds me of all the "radio arm" saws for sale.

Re: Old Newspaper Ads

I know it's not a muscle car but a great pro street non the less. Iv had this ad hanging on the wall for 20 years I'm a huge willys fan ( however will never own one because of the price of them) read the last sentence how the owner describes his car it's perfect

I think he traded it in after multiple engine failures early in life. I wondered if it somehow ended up in AZ, seems unlikely.

'
Both being Phoenx, the Harrell car is most likely the Turquoise '68 from the Courtesy Chev ad back on page 11?
Same w/ the the Pittsburgh Deuce above painted by Chip, probably the competition paint Deuce from page 12 but a year later/different owner?
Sorry for any duplicate posts as '69 L72 'Vette & L72 Biscayne ad above also prev' page...just juggling too many pics at once... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]
Stay tuned, lots more to come!
