you can't say it's one owner and then also say the previous owner did xyz...

This car has had multiple owners though, at least 3 documented owners, buyer beware

Shocked ...Well, at least it has a "BANGO" steering wheel, and "SPINER" hub caps to fetch this asking price!


I wanted to see the duck head shifter but no photos of that? <cry>

Is that a more modern washer bottle in the trunk?

Doesn't look black to me, looks like a wood steering wheel.

I think there is a decimal point missing. Punctuation can change the meaning as in: I helped my uncle Jack off a horse. Adding a comma in the right place is needed... unless it's not.

Maybe Marilyn Monroe farted in it, that would make it worth a little extra wouldn’t it? Cool

This one doesn’t seem legit at all, especially with a 67 only rear bumper, and zero interior shots…

The shroud is correct, it’s the last of the stale air, and the beginning of that shaped shroud. This car was built in July of 62, so it’s literally the last of the 62’s.

Just removing everything that's RED on that car would be an improvement.

The engine looks clean to me. But:
- The front fender are showing a different location for the peanut turn signal.
- wrong catch for the deck lid lock
- the outside paint looks new to me
I could imagine a low mileage car regarding the interior including the rubber mats and the carpet and also the door gaps and alignment. Perhaps it had early repairs after an accident?

Take off a zero in the price?

Guy has a lot of super expensive stuff but I looked at his older ads and he got emails on some of the rare stuff that seems crazy to me so maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe $40 for the face plates and knobs, the rest is junk


I thought he was joking, that's why I responded with my stupid comment. Truthfully , that radio is ready to fill up the garbage can.
