Vicki 812 630 5924 Please, if you are bidding on any of my listings, be genuine in your plans to purchase it. Reserves are not disclosed pre-listing end to ensure fairness to all bidders. Bid your high, and all is fair in the ebay motors world. Please bid with confidence and I will work with you all the way to you picking up the item you have purchased. Vehicle Transportation: I will work with you on all transactions, shipping is always at the cost of the buyer. I recommend that you shop around before you commit, and get the company to give you a guaranty that the vehicle will be picked up by an acceptable time so that you aren't waiting for your car ... 6 weeks later. It does happen. Recenlty, we are having success with Auto Transport Direct – call and ask for Heather at 800-600-3750. I stand tall in being sure my clients are well protected in the transaction of selling their item. We will verify all cashiers checks that are presented and verify cash also. So the ebay scammers need to just go away. Everyone else who plan to make this an honest transaction … thanks for your interest. I do my best to accurately describe each item. I also spend a lot of time taking pictures and finding the right ones to put in each one of my auctions. I know your purchase of the item I list is based on these pictures, so I do my absolute best at describing and listing the vehicle. Many times other pictures are available, so feel free to ask if you would like to see others. Please remember, as we can not possibly list every flaw, we can not list every positive either. We do not plan to discount the sale once the deal is made. Unless there is an obvious issue that was unwarranted. We will be fair, however. This is a final sale with no written, express or implied warranties. We do our best to accurately describe the condition of the vehicle you are interested in. All vehicles may be viewed pre-listing end and we encourage all buyers to inspect the car at pick-up to ensure there are no disappointments after the sale. Once the bill of sale is signed, the sale is final and any chances you had to inspect the car prior to completing the sale is waived. You are then making the purchase as is.

If you are concerned about a professional inspection being performed, we can work with you to have this done on any vehicle we have listed. This is another step we take to insure the buying of a car we list goes smoothly. Classic cars are tough to list, many owners do not know all of the issues a car has. Similar to new cars. There are no warranties. With deposits, payment, etc. – plan to follow the listing exactly unless you have permission prior to the end of the auction. Payment must be made within 7 days, pick-up can be put off, but please let us know your intention at the time of purchase. If you have any questions, please email me before bidding. I answer email within 12 hours generally. Questions sent the day the auction is ending is tough … call me to notify me if this is the case at 812-630-5924. See my positive feedback! I am a serious seller, looking to do this for many years down the road! On Sep-23-10 at 18:45:28 PDT, seller added the following information: Yep .. this is a manual transmission. Sorry .. vic
