[b] Those slicks caught my eye also, I thought they would make some fine garage art -
but they went for $230. Much more then I was willing to pay! - - ![]() -

[b] This big block '55 Nomad went for $700.
It had an inspection sticker from '75 and a tree growing off each front fender! - - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - - This was a fine car at one time - check out the pin striping under the hood. There was evidence of it all over the car. - - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() -

[b] This '54 Vette - no title / no vin tag was the second highest seller at $6300.
- - ![]() - ![]() - - The buyers came all the way from Indiana - with a trailer with no ramps. I thought they would crack the body in half trying to get it loaded. Some people tried to help by picking up the back - but the body just came right up off the frame. After an hour it was finally on with no noticeable damage. - - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() -

[b] This '56 went for $4400. It must be me, but I don't get it. This car was in such sad shape, pulling it out
of the mud could break it into pieces! Another example of a car that probably was real nice when it was parked. - - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() -

[b] I think this entire row of Sting Rays went for $5. They were stored in a bus and were not that bad.

[b] One of my favorites was this '60 Sedan Delivery. It was an old race car - still wearing cheater slicks
and lettering on the sides. It was in sad shape selling for $225. Check out the heater delete plate. - - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() - ![]() -

The buyers came all the way from Indiana - with a trailer with no ramps. [/ QUOTE ] A quick stop at a lumberyard would've made things easier. A couple of 8 foot long 2X10s can't be all that expensive, can they?? Even if you break an "organic ramp" I can still find uses for them. I had to dig a little, but (using a 6' 4X4 post as a lever and a 6X6 chunk as a pivot) I've levered a car high enough to slide a jack and a plywood pad underneath. Doing this solo I simply stood on the end of the post AND maneuvered the floorjack into place. |
