So I am on CL all the time. It's like an addiction. Today I saw this:

It is a 4 door, but it seems like a really good deal. I wish I had the money to buy this right now. I sure hope who ever does buy it doesn't chop it all up.

Must be a true California car - no heater! Seems to have rust in the usual places, though.

Looks pretty good for the price but I wonder how the floor rust is? Here in Canada it is Kijiji that draws my interest every day. You never know what is going to show up there. Like these Offenhauser heads.

Be careful with how much ($$$) some of these "honest" folks are asking for these heads. DD

There will someday be a 12 step program for CL addicts. Look at my post just above on truck based woody.....

I'm glad I'm not in the market for this one, as it would be tempting. Is there any chance that is original paint?
One thing that would make me 'pause', is that it is a very 'base' model. If it's been living in Huntington Beach all its life, it should show at least as much rust as I see in the pictures. And, it could be 'sound' underneath?

Right where it belongs, next to the brake pedal.
