But with that, no, walk away. A) You already have one. So if you don't need something to do to keep you busy you don't, why? B) Why are there two ammeters on the seat?

He does not want you to think about it or do any research (guess he does not know about us). What will happen in 25 hours? The Gas Monkey crooks sold one in much better shape for the same money.

Tell the old guy you want some of whatever he's smoking as he must be high on something.
But let the hot rod guy buy it maybe it will make our cars worth more money............ |

Get it to run/drive around the block. Price it at 10,995 or a little more at it will sell quickly. You can see this was a nice car at some time.70's restoration? |

Re: Need a value. Quick! 1931 barn find.....
Maybe we should all chip in and buy it so the rod guys don't get it.. We can then sell it in OZ and make a huge profit

What I see is a lot of hard to find parts and a great project but I would sure wave a much lower stack of cash under his nose .

Re: Need a value. Quick! 1931 barn find.....
A lot in price and real market value depends upon where these things are located. Here is the heavily populated northeast, stuff usually sells for more than in the middle of the country.
And too . . . 'Hard Cash" does really talk loudly. As crass at it might be, carefully un-pocketing a wad of tasty Ben Franklin hundred dollar notes has quickly dislodged many "firm prices". Never be afraid to walk away! Also too . . . "he who speaks LAST looses the better deal." Make the real offer and then remain silent. At least that's what I was taught long ago by a couple of pro antique / junk dealers. Most times the procedure worked. |

Thanks everyone for their reply. I just left the gentleman's house. He would not budge from $7500. We walked away.

eBay prices mean nothing unless it is a completed sale where reserve was met. They can ask anything they want, but the important price is what did it sell for? Wayne |
