Sounds like one I saw on the HAMB (I think, might have been on ebay or the Ford Barn) this morning.  He had a tag of 2250 or 950 on the one I looked at......Iowa if I remember......

I will be adding a requirement similar to the HAMB soon to list your price and location in your ad.  Im not interested in another car myself, but a fellow emailed.me the other day looking for a project car, rust was ok with him, just wanted a cheap tudor.

James, I have the black custom that I'll get rid of or the green 500 h/t if your guy is close enough to come look at them.

shortcoupe..where is the car located?
Also you can resize your pics easily so they'll post here....when you click on the photo you want to post, it should ask you which program to use to open with...chose PAINT..(you may have to right click to get that option..it's on almost all windows op systems...when it opens you will probably only see a portion of the pic.), in the top menu,click on image,then resize. change the 100 % that it opens with to about 20 or 25% both horiz and vert...click enter and the picture should be small enough to see in it's entirety in the PAINT window.save before you exit and it should be small enough to post here.   Rich

You didnt mess anything up, no big deal.  I hate to see a useable Custom go to the crusher.  I wish you werent so far away from me, I'd buy it just to keep that from happening.  Hang in there a couple more days, it should sell....

where is it??? Shortcoupe..like James said hang in there..these sedans are getting hard as hell to find..and as far as your posting...everyone struggles with posting pics..don't worry bout it. You never said, but I'm guessing from your user name that it's a custom 2 dr, not a fairlane.


We still need to know where it's at though.

I am sorry, but I find your attitude a little puzzling.  You say you want to sell a car.  People on here obviously want the car.  Why in the world would you crush it.

All people are asking for is some contact information and a price. 

I find the ease at which people crush these cars troubling.  When there is such a short supply of these cars in the world, why destroy them when someone wants them?

It just makes no sense to me...

I would agree, why not post the cars location from the get go? This could be close to someone on this website. A whole bunch of posts and I still don't know where the dam car is.  c'mon man
