If you don’t like a no hassle, no games type listing you will not like my listing, so no need to read on! PICTURES: It was snowing outside so I took the pictures inside, the car is better than the pictures, I will take more Monday if we don’t get the big snow storm that is predicted. I’ll also get more of the underside. That is if the car does not sell before then. VIN : 138176B136710 and it matches the title and VIN plate on the car. MILEAGE: 88060 : HISTORY: My friend Danny Pryor traded a car and a pocket full of cash for this car. It was restored and nice, but the paint job was not the quality we like. Danny had it painted by and I promise you, you’ll not complain about the paint job. TITLE: Clear Maryland title in hand, it is signed of correctly. IS THERE ANY RUST PROBLEMS? None that I can find. IS THERE ANY ACCIDENT DAMAGE? None that I can find. WHY AM I SELLING THIS CAR? I’m a classic car restorer, but when I find a car I like, can sell for a fair market price and make a few bucks, I buy it fix a few things and resell. PAINT: New and nice, it’s a deep burgundy/maroon and is show quality to my standards. The door jambs, lips, underside of trunk and hood are all painted slick. PPG brand paint was used, it is base coat and 3 coats of clear over the top. It was water sanded and buffed to a brilliant shine. This car is straight and the alignment of parts is as good as factory. CHROME & emblem: New or looks new! INTEROR: No wear, no marks, it’s a lot better than the pictures I took. UNSERSIDE: Not detailed for show, but no problems, no rusty holes or wired up brackets. GLASS: New windshield and all other glass clear, the side windows roll up and down good. ENGINE: The 396 engine is 350 horse power and strong, it has no blue smoke, no rattles, no knocks, no pings and good compression. Past owner thought it was original to the car and I think so, but can’t prove it. EXHAUST SYSTEM: Dual exhaust with the loud and deep Muscle Car sound. TRANSMISSION: Turbo 400, this is a 3 speed automatic that shifts as it should. REAR-END: 12 bolt rear-end, I did not check the ratio, it feels good on the road and I think to be the original. BRAKES: Power assisted brakes, drums all around and they stop good. STEERING: Power assisted steering, the car drives and handles great, I found no loose parts. WHEELS AND TIRES: New red line tires mounted on rally wheels. LIGHTS: They all work, even the dome light. GUAGES: They work, even the gas gauge. ORIGINAL AM RADIO WORKS SPEEDOMETER WORKS! WIPERS WORK! GAS GAUGE WORKS! Clock IN consol does not work! HOW DO THE DOORS AND HOOD OPEN AND CLOSE? HORN WORKS! I think they open and close good! TRADES: Please no trades, they never work out and are just to hard! MY BUY NOW PRICE IS THE PRICE, THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE IS THE EBAY FINAL SALES FEE OF $60 FROM EBAY. To do this you have to not hit the buy now button and deal with me direct. I use ebay listings as advertisement and don’t put my cars up for auction. I’m old and can do what I want to and most people like a direct and honest approach to selling, not the have your buddy bid the car up thing or ask a inflated dream price. The rest of the information is boring unless you are really interested in buying the car, its just buying details like shipping, paperwork, who I am, where the car is located and how to pay and contact information. If you have to ask your wife, borrow the money, sell your car or want to trade: Please don’t waste our time, I work hard and don’t have time to waste! I will be very happy to answer any question about the car if you have real interest. CONTACT INFO: my cell is 423-506-8987, I do not answer when driving, while meeting with people, after about 8:00 PM Eastern Time or on Sunday morning or Sunday nights. Please leave a voice mail and I’ll get back. I do check my emails several times a day. cell 423-506-8987 email: dreamcar@live.com THE GAME: I don’t play the game like most sellers! I tell you who I am, how to contact me, where the vehicle is located, lots of details and welcome you to come and look at the vehicle. I don’t put my vehicles up for auction because it a big joke, most sellers just have their buddy’s bid the auction up to what they want. Read the who your buying from section, I’m 64 years old, I have been a auto mechanics instructor, was an instructor in the US Army aviation school for Chinook helicopters and sold a good business to retire and play with classic cars. PAPERWORK: I know what to do! We are just a father/son 2 man operation, but we are a Tennessee licensed/bonded car dealer and have sold cars all over the US and exported many. THIS IS NOT AN AUCTION, THIS IS A FIXED PRICE LISTING: I reserve the right to stop the listing at any time and sale the car “come look”. I RESERVE TH RIGHT TO STOP THE LISTING AT ANY TIME. THE CAR IS FOR SALE ON THE LOCAL MARKET. WHERE THE CAR IS LOCATED: The car is here at my home in Athens, Tennessee. Athens is in east Tennessee, we are 50 miles south of Knoxville. Look at a Road Atlas and follow interstate 75 south from Knoxville. I live one mile and one turn from the interstate exit. My zip code is 37303. The closest large airport is Knoxville. Athens does have a good small airport, but has no commercial flights. I WILL ONLY PICK YOU UP AT THE AIR PORT IF THE CAR IS PAID FOR IN FULL, I HAVE MADE TOO MANY WILD GOOSE CHASES! RENTAL CARS ARE AVAILABLE AT THE AIRPORT FOR A VERY REASONABLE RATE! WHO YOU ARE BUYING FROM: My name is Ron Watson and I live in the small town of Athens, Tennessee “Athens is called the friendly city”. We are located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains in east Tennessee. I am 64 years old and work with my son Keith who is now 38. I am now retired and living my dream restoring, selling and improving classic cars. For 12 years I was an auto mechanics instructor at Tennessee Technology Center here in Athens. I am also a veteran of the US Army; I served as a Chinook helicopter mechanic, crew chief and instructor in the late 60s, I did spend a year in Vietnam. I’m Southern Baptist faith and proud to be an American. I’ve been married to the same good woman for almost 41 years. LIFE IS GOOD IN THE GREEN HILLS OF EAST TENNESSEE! TRANSPORT: EBAY MOTORS gives 3 instant transport quotes if you click on the link on my listing. US TRANSPORT: “No problem”, I can recommend a very large company, McNutt Auto Transport Service 800-755-2324. “open carrier only” US OR EXPORT “the best”: Classic Car Transport, LLC: This is a very good company that will handle any type of transport in the US or overseas with the white glove treatment. Call Steve at 913-749-0948 Email stevens@classiccartransport.com MY AREA CODE FOR TRANSPORT: The area code for Athens, Tennessee is 37303. I live 1 mile off a major interstate (I-75)and 35 miles south of interstate 40, so transport is usually very fast. PAYMENT: I require a $250 deposit for a Buy Now or to hold the car. Option 1: Pay the old school way face to face. Option 2: Pay by check, I will wait till the check clears, I have had a fake bank certified check. Option 3: The safest is to let our banks handle it, my bank is a member of the US Federal Reserve, this is called wire transfer. Option 4: Pay Pal is good, but it cost a lot. It cost me around 3%, I will take it, but you will have to add 3% to the price. WILL I HOLD THE CAR UNTIL YOU GET HERE TO LOOK OR HAVE IT INSPECTED? Not without a $250 non-refundable deposit! I have held too many cars that people promise me they are going to buy and they never show up, their wife won’t let them buy it, they can’t get a loan or they just back out. Before you drive or fly a long distance you need to make sure the car is not sold. “The way I look at it is until you pay a deposit your just looking and dreaming”. INSPECTIONS: Please come look and be happy. All inspections are required to be done before the end of the listing. I listed this car as I see it as a 64 year old car restorer, please come and judge it for your self. I judge the car to my standards, this may not be yours. Paid inspectors are unpredictable, you might get a good one, but most of them do not impress me at all, most really don’t know what to look at, they make a good car sound bad on the report. They have to be very critical to cover their back sides and all their concerned about is getting paid. I understand how hard it is to buy a car without looking, but I think you should come look yourself. I don’t like paid inspectors, I like for the person that is buying to inspect for themselves. I think its fine to send a friend to inspect for you. To make it clear, don’t hit the buy now button and then inspect, come inspect first! TRADES: Please no trades! BOTTOM LINE: My firm price is $24,850 and I will be asking more at the big spring car shows. The game is not rocket science, ask a price and come down. It’s not fun to bargain over the cell phone all day long with people that live 2000 miles away and are not going to buy anyway. My firm price is the Buy Now price. I have sold every car I have ever tried to, so I’m not motivated to be bargained down. PLEASE!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!! PLEASE!!!!! Come look at this vehicle. Please don’t hit the Buy Now button unless your ready to really buy it! Do your research, call me with questions, read my feed backs, I am ebay verified; this means they say I’m a real person in a real place. I WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO SELL YOU THE VEHICLE WITH-OUT AN INSPECTION; YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE A LOT OF NERVE AND PLEASE DON’T BE A CRY BABY. Read the ME section on the upper right hand part of the listing marked seller info. Thank You, Ron Watson cell: 423-506-8987 email: dreamcar@live.com IS THERE A WARRANTY? No!
