I would love to have it. Of the 111 did any of them come with a/c?

I know some of the 104 S code auto cars had A/C. Not sure how many, but it does appear on some of the Marti Reports I have. Nothing on S code 4 speed cars yet.

Price reduced - again!

Well the third time on e-pay was about as exciting as the first two. I'm reducing the price to $40k and that is the final offer. If I can't get $40k for this amazing GT/CS, I'll just have to keep it for now.

Thanks!
Lee

Kinda a bad time of the year to sell "fun in the sun" cars. In my experience Spring seems to be the hot time. The Portland Swap meet in April attracts a buyer who likes to see in person and deal with cash. And I mean lots of cash! I have seen purchases with stacks and stacks of bucks changing hands. A buyer who hates the internet and is old school.

My brother and I just did a purchase of a new driver vehicle for him. Cash on the barrel and a chance to meet the seller and see the truck. I don't know how people buy cars sight unseen??

...Couldn't have said it better! At the very most, do a nice colorful ad sans many details and instruct them to call you for questions, emailing more photos and an appt.... then answer the phone when they do!
This will also minimize online (armchair) nitpicking and maximize serious inquiries... It's better that You explain your high price (and standard) than some tire-kicker purist on the web.....

Lee,
There are a few errors on your car that may be raising questions in the minds of potential buyers. Most are easy to fix.
- The armrest is incorrectly attached
- There should not be a stripe between the door and the scoop
- The tail light covers, inside the trunk, should be black.

Something that is a little more expensive to fix is the installation of the side scoops. There are no screws visible, and the scoop shown in the eBay auction photo doesn't look correct..

I'm not trying pick apart the car, just offering suggestions that may help you sell it.

I've seen the tail light covers in Black, and body color. I've also seen & used these cardboard panels that cover the area:

IMHO they actually were a blue grey color originally. Here is a picture of a original and the ones restored for the HCS.

Thank you all for the inputs.

The side scoops are from a 67, as are the rear quarters. The PO had wanted to make them functional so that is what I ended up with. The rear panel needs the filler and the armrest were just a screw up:embarass:!!


Thanks again!

Sorry, I was talking about the round metal covers. They should be flat black, or satin, or semi-gloss.

Marty, do you know what the finish should be?

Lee-
When you install the filler boards, dampen them to soften them up, so they won't crease. (Ask me how I know) When they dry, they will hold their shape.
