Mike, how much are you wanting for your 85??? What condition is it in???
I am looking for $10,500, and am not really looking to come off that price, as the only reason for selling it would be to get something else that I don't need.
You see, there is this car that was built by SSV, and is quite impractical, and my wife HATES it, thus I think it might just be the perfect car- hehe. If I were to go down that path several cars would have to go. No point in selling the ones I *really like* first, as then I would be upset with myself incase I did not get the needed "clean sweep" in the garage, thus the selling of the cars I *like* first.
There are a few people here who have seen the car in person, and can feel free to say whatever they like regarding Project #69. BMG has been the only person who posts here (or on the Club board) who has driven the car.
Here is a recap of my driving the car, as you can see it spends most of its time sitting in a garage:
* Bought the car in 2002 or 2003 (I can't recall) with a down payment of a 6-pack of Corona. Didn't drive the car, had it flatbedded to a friends shop for storage.
* Some time in 2003 decided to start fixing it up. Late 2003 drove it from Shop to house for storage.
* March 2004 decided to do a "last minute" resto/paint/resticker just before the 40th Show. Drove it to my brothers to work on the resto of it. Then drove it to a friends shop to paint and sticker.
* April 2004 drove it to the 40th Show & back home.
* May 2004 my brother drove it on the "Pony Trails" Cruise.
* July 2004 drove it to Performance Autosport for the 1st SCOA National.
* Oct 2004 drove it home from PA, as I left it there in storage.
* April 2005 drove it to the SCOA-MAR Spring Thaw
* Aug 2005 put it on a trailer and drove it to the 2nd SCOA National Show (didn't come off the trailer)
* Aug 2005 took it off the trailer and parked it in the Garage-Mahal.
* Nov 2005 drove the kids to school in it one day and parked it in the other garage where it still sits.
I would be happy to discuss the car over the phone. PM me your # and "good days and times" to reach you, and I will call you on my dime.
