Got some more info on this one Just In Case...
http://knoxville.craigslist.org/cto/3598410741.html

Runs, All interior in boxes, runs and drives good but needs new front and rear window seals and the front windshield is cracked

77ChevySharkBite 02-27-2013 03:49 PM

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
 
not too shabby looks like a good car, overall but we all you know BEE so we'll hope for BEE before anything else happens.

JRANGER 02-27-2013 03:50 PM

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
 
Yes sir!!! Just keeping my eyes peeled for decent deals

Guy said no rust from what he can tell and he believe it has some bondo on the hood but in good shape for its age

77ChevySharkBite 02-27-2013 04:08 PM

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
 
Definitely man!

It looks pretty straight if you ask me I just wish people would be more honest with cars and stuff when it comes to things like this, trust me I've found what I believe to be a little bondo only about 2-3 times on my truck and minimal bondo used so it gives me hope. Went out on a limb on my truck and got a steal in my opinion though I was ripped of a 350 oh well I got a running truck its the way I view it lol

JRANGER 02-27-2013 04:21 PM

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
 
Yeah, just checking in with him and he doesnt seem like he would budge on price much...Asked him if he sell for $4000 cash and he said he already dropped it $1500...Im pretty sure he would go down more but im just posturing in case BEE falls through.. Bet he would take $4500

77ChevySharkBite 02-27-2013 04:26 PM

Re: Project 78 High Sierra
 
If he wants it sold bad enough he will, the way I see it is yeah you want to get your moneys worth but in the end sometimes you just have to cut your losses and take what someone is willing to give you.

Yeah might be trying to see if he could get me to up the price as he threw in "Others are talking to me about it" and that he would keep my # and consider it..

Doesnt really matter unless BEE falls through anyway lol
