Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
I was looking through Craigslist and I saw an Old Panel that I used to own, It was not the ad, but the guy said he would sell it to me for $150.00...This thing still runs and drives? My problem is I have two projects, and just drug another Parts Suburban home this weekend. I feel like I am starting a Bone Yard. I got rid of it once, because I really wanted a Suburban. Well I have two now. Would you pick it back up? Thanks for your time.

Re: Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
You have any emotional ties to it? I would for that reason, but not much else. I only have one project and can't afford any more! More power to you if you have the time/room/money to keep three projects around! You married?? what does the wife say??!!

Re: Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
Nah, I don't get to attatched to cars, I was just thinking it would be good for parts for the Suburban(s). I don't need it, just thinking that it is almost too much of a coincidence to ignore, and pass up for $150. My Girl is amazing, of course she thinks that the Suburban is Really hers...she lets me do about anything I want, I am a lucky guy

Re: Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
For $150 and it runs and drives? I would jump on it, but that could be because i'm a pack rat.

Re: Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
i'd buy it back, just to flip it.
You could sell it sight unseen any day of the week and double your money. |

It's hard to loose $$$ with a deal like that.

Re: Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
You're asking people on this site if you should buy a truck??
That's like a crack junky asking his dealer if he should smoke a rock...

Re: Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
If you can buy a running driving Panel for $150 I'm moving.Where are you?I wouldn't part a panel out unless there was absolutely no saving it.They are too rare.Besides I might be partial.

Re: Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
It rained here, the panel is in a pasture....bad combo, as soon as I get it out I will post pictures.
The funny thing is that I asked my friend that I gave this truck to about 8 years it was with the understanding that I would have first shot at gettting it back if he wanted to get rid of it , He sold it to his Brother or Cousin or something instead...well he lost the title, and it has just sat. I hope I can find the guy I bought it from, if not i will hav to get a bonded title. That is if I ever title it? |

Re: Should I buy My 1969 Panel ? W/Pix
You cant' go home.....At least I have a little closure. My 69 Panel that I remember has gone to a better place, but it won't be my garage. the let it set out and die, and anything worth saving when I had it was either beat up or missing. Still was a good feeling to see it again. I even found a few old things I left in it.
