HCS on eBAY in Vancouver, WA

[BroadwayBlue]

Needs work. No mention of a Marti report but VIN is listed and seems to be a very low sequence number I don't see any this low in the online registry - 8R02C102378

This one looks in prety bad shape.

IMO a Marti is a must.

HC Bob, what do you think?

Correct me if I'm wrong

Weren't all of the HCS made at the end of the production run? I remember reading that somewhere. If you look at the car the only thing that might be HCS is the rear deck lid and tail light set up. Shelby gas cap, Shelby hood and nose piece, open side scoops.

High Country Bob where are you?

Hey, guys, gals, and Arlie, you're right June 8 and lowest # now is 165224 with this same date and is/was in Texas. But this ebay car is way BEFORE even a Cal Spec.

Interestingly enough the tree air freshner has survived intact. Check out the picture of the dash and it's hanging underneath

I'm here. I emailed him thru the ebay listing this past week about this so-called HCS and he never let my question go on the listing He emailed back and said because of the deck lid bla bla bla and even the console (what's that got to with anything?) he THOUGHT it was a HCS but he has never added anything to the listing to the effect that he does not have a legit car. As of tonight he has had no bids yet, thank God, or someone is not going to be a happy camper one day. Bob here.

Based on that theory ... I wonder what made him think it was an HCS as opposed to a CS.

John, I say don't drive over to Vancouver. It's a phony. Save your gas and time and spend it cruising on 6th and Callow (sp) or around 9th and Constitution where I grew up. It was Route 3 and Box 771. How's about the NEW Admiral movie house in 1948 or '49 whose first film was "Duel in the Sun". Wow, wasn't that a no no in those days? Bob Teets here. email me your phone # and I'll call you one evening soon.

Bob,

This is the second time this seller has put the car on ebay. The first time I emailed him and explained to him that the V.I.N. was to early to be an HCS. He emailed me back simply saying thanks for the info, but never posted a correction on the auction. I was very surprised to see him list it again as a HCS. Maybe he needs to hear from more of us so that nobody is deceived.

I emailed him before I found out Bob did ... no response yet.

Auction was ended

It looks like he got the message because the seller ended the auction. We'll see if he revises the description and puts it back on ebay.

I don't believe it ended early. I think it was scheduled to end yesterday 10/3. There was only a few hours left when I emailed my question.

My bad, I just noticed that the auction had ended without looking at the rest of the screen. There was a buyer and I hope that they didn't buy it thinking that is was a real HCS.
