Default Re: You see the darnedest things on Craigslist

I have no idea of the worth of those things where they are located,but i can tell you exactly what I would actually get for them where I am.Street rod builders or at least wanna-be rod builders would pay $900-$1000 for that bunch of iron.They may or may not ever get built,but guys here will pay that to feed their dream.They will collect a bunch of parts like that,then at some point wake up to the fact that it ain't gonna happen.Then they'll unload for next to nothing,or,if they're patient,advertise and sell to another dreamer or even to a serious builder.I find a lot of these TV show dreamers have no patience and get the,get it out of my yard attitude.I've never seen any of those TV shows,I don't have cable.(I can't see paying $25.a month to watch a TV)but I do hear lots of stories about car building TV shows.

I remember the 1960's when tv was free and we were told pay tv was coming some day and it would be better because there would be NO Commercials.
Now we pay 85$ a month and have 10 times the number of commericals that there were for free tv!
They keep that up and none will subscribe to tv anymore.
