    This one's been on craigslist for a year or two now, same price. http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/cto/4500274096.html

    If it takes you that long to sell a car you might as well kill yourself.

      P.S. I decided to pass on the Henry J so let there be no guilt if someone else wants it.

        Agreed.

        A few weeks ago, I posted up 37 advertising banners I had collected over the last couple of decades, mostly from Kansas City International Raceway. The bundle included stuff from Weld Racing, Aeromotive, Bassani Exhaust, etc... Anyway, I listed them all for $10 each. I thought it was a fair price and I wanted to SELL them, not haggle over them or have to store them any longer. I had buddies telling me I should ask $20 each for them. Oddly, I don't have a single banner left. They are gone, I got my cash and I am happy.

        Thinking the old addage about the bird in the hand is appropriate.
        It's really no different than trying to glue them back on after she has her way.

          I blame it on all these god damned TV shows Ron, they're corrupting peoples minds and the only ones that are actually making money are the people on the show.

          This one goes totally against everything I believe in but I'll post it anyway because it sounds more like a cry out for help... http://palmsprings.craigslist.org/cto/4536547634.html

            I'd look at the Volvo but I LUST for the Henry J. Not enough to actually consider buying it, but I DO lust after it. It looks pretty much totally complete (I wonder if the headlight rings are in the car) and one could either bring the Continental back to life or maybe install something interesting like the Nailhead I have sitting out in the shop.

              The Henry J needs rockers, they're gone and it doesn't look like there's much to attach a new rocker to.

              Here's one Ron might like... http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/4539779797.html

                That charger would be at least another 2 grand in NY as it sits. You guys dont know how good you have it.

                    I don't think Casper has a grasp on exactly what constitutes a stupid price for a car...I see nothing outlandish about the price of that Charger OR the Volvo wagon.....

                    Fast back or not...IMO this guy is effing nuts...


                    your for only 6200 bucks



                    this cream puff is yours for just 6K

                        this is another that has been for sale for a few years...this guy is way out of touch with reality
                        5500 for a car that would cost 35K to restore that would only be worth 18K...He would be better off parting it.

                          If I lived in your area Joe that Charger probably would have been in my backyard before it ever hit craigslist.

                                I thought about $300 for the Cougar, and I love those things. The only freaking way its worth close to ten grand is if its a 428 or a near mythical 427 side oiler car. Chargers, Meh. The Henry J would be cool, but my shop isnt even started yet.
