63

nice deal

Just try to sit down and watch Glen Beck, read the papers and watch the news about $5/gal gas and then tell your wife that you want to buy a $16K toy. Hard to do that. These are HARD and CRAZY times.

I got a call today from a dealer in Ohio who has been trying to sell a really nice red 63 max wedge plymouth for six months and he was just calling the people who nibbled at the ad to see if they're still interested. Yes, but not for $26K. That's not a bad price for that particular car, in better times it would be $35K. Not now though. The owner needs to keep it for 10 years until all this blows over and then try to sell it.

As bad as the old car market is, Florida real estate is even worse. My wife's mom has a condo in Bradenton that her family needs to sell to keep her in the rest home and my wife went on the internet last night and saw that prices are STILL dropping. The real estate agent down there said it will be a decade before home prices rebound.

The problem is, the old retired union guys in Toledo and Dearborn want to sell their homes and move to Florida but, guess what, the real estate market up there is as hot as a dead mule. Sooooo, no one is buying in Florida.

So the basic problem is that this car, and others, are fairly priced, it's just that everyone is afraid to write the check. Personally, I think maybe all this gloom will pass somewhat when Spring comes and the snow, ice and mud are gone. Then cars will start to move again. It'll sell.

I stopped listening to Glen Beck a couple of months ago, he has become almost suicidal with his doom and gloom predictions.
I only listen to Laura, Rush and Savage now and I feel a whole lot better.
As far as the real estate market in Florida, it just depends on what you are trying to sell, where it is and the price, in Cape Coral for example, things are moving at a very good pace right now and I am not talking about junk for $60K like you could buy a year or 2 ago, quality stuff up to around $350K is selling very quickly with multiple offers on most properties.

Sorry Ken, didn't mean to hijack your for sale thread but I just had to tell it like it is by clarifying a few facts for those that need a little positive input.
At least this brings it up TTT

 

[pmsjaw]

Gorgeous car. If I didnt have my 63 that one would be in my garage.

 

[6t4polara]

Is the car still available.

 

[pmsjaw]

yes

 

[2323]

how hot does this car run in the summer heat?

 

[pmsjaw]

Awesome.

Still for sale. Looking for a buyer in the upper $16K's.

Where you been? we haven't seen you at Fosters or anywhere else for that matter.
People are asking: "where is the guy with that bad mofo mopar"!

Mother-in-law has been here with us for the month (insert your own joke here).

I took her home to Arkansas yesterday, now I'm in Green Bay in a 17 inch snow and ice storm. (I'm still in my flip-flops, though).
I'll be in Milwaukee this afternoon picking up another of those 102 cars and bringing it back home to Florida.
Haven't decided which one yet..... ;)

I'll be at Merchants Crossing Monday, Fosters Wednesday.

Hi Ken. Looks like you always pick the wrong times to go to Wisconsin.:cold::cold:

That's easy: the Marauder:headbang:

 

[pmsjaw]

LOL...
I'm bringing back the Marauder the begining of April.
I have the bumper with me. I need to get it chromed and put it back on when I pick the car up. Then put the AC back together, and it'll be done.

Instead, I'm bringing back a 1966 Marlin 327 4 barrel with factory AC that works. Nice car. Just loaded it up, took it to the car wash, and I'll be heading back with it in the morning. Pretty peppy little car. Looks like a 1966 Charger (sort of).
I'll post some pics in the morning.

 

[Redpolara]

Bloody Hell!!! I thought this 63 would've been long gone......go figure.:dontknow:

Here's the 1966 Charger, er, I mean Marlin...
