Re: No market for my 57 in Austin area

Sometimes being honest seems a bit brutal.

The Austin area has probably got just about as high a percentage of people who like old cars and old trucks who also have expendable money as anywhere in the country but at the asking price they want a truck they can climb in and drive home and then take to a cruise night that night. Possibly with full documentation on all of the mechanical parts and pieces showing that they were new and fresh and what had been done to them rebuild or performance wise would have helped.

48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
