He has a habit of not going and looking/missing good deals?

I havent heard from him, so chances are he did NOT go look at it, and passed up a great deal AGAIN.....

I just looked at that one, looks like a great deal to me. Hope he can get it.

What's that they say about "assuming" . . . ?

No, chances are that I've called repeatedly but can't get a hold of the "owner". When you call the number, it immediately goes to a recording; "the owner's voicemail cannot accept any additional messages . . . ." and then hangs-up. But I figured a way around that.

:biggrin:


This is not the first time. Apparently he came by p-n-p looking for parts, and left numbers including his cell. I called several times but never got a return call before leaving for the convention. I get back from the east coast run, and the SHO pops-up on CL. And yes, I still have that piece of paper [looks for the "stick-your-tongue-out" emoticon] . . . .

At the time I didn't realize it was the same SHO. I called the number James gave me, shortly after we spoke. After "several" attempts, some other guy answers, said the owner was not there and he would have him call me. After asking a few more questions (like, where is the SHO, can I see it / do you want to take my name and number / etc.), he tells me it's not there and was towed earlier. When I asked if he needed my name and number so the owner could return the call, it didn't sound like he wrote it down . . . .

So last night, in going through my "things to look for that someone wants but none of the yards have" print-outs, I find the number matches the number from the CL ad. I called both numbers today, getting a female at the number in the ad, and his girl friend at the cell number. Neither mentioned it being sold, but I still haven't received a return call.

And what's this "AGAIN" shit ?

Oh yeah, that $900 blue 94 ATX the kid was selling because he lost his license, well, it wasn't in bad shape. I mean, the cladding being held on the doors, fender with sheetmetal screws didn't look too bad . . . .

Ask Eric VerValin about how much you could NOT see in the CL photos of the SHO we went to look at last week.

Then there was the $2500 Florida 1992 MTX, that while it had no rust, had paint that was much worse than mine (ie. multiple various shades of "white" to "yellow-white").

Outside of that, most of the others have been wrecks people have pieced back together with various colored Taurus parts. Not to mention, you can't buy what you don't have the money for . . . .

Yesterday, I realized that one of the 94 Sable wagons was the same moonlight blue color as the Fort Wayne SHO. The hood was cherry, both fenders were in excellent shape, both front doors excellent and no rust along the bottom door-skin seal. It was pulled and crushed this morning before the front door opened . . . .

Oh, and I went to look at the White 95 SLO at Riverside with 68,000 miles on it, to consider buying the rear clip. Gone and crushed. Went to Taylor's to look at the White 94 ATX. Gone and crushed.

I don't know, maybe it's just me, but I think someone is trying to tell me to wait . . . .

Yeah, that was another of the "ah F-CK, where'd that go?" things when I got there this morning.

As far as the door handle, the interchange only listed 1996-2000 Sebring. Of the five there, both handles were gone on three, the fourth car the lifting-portion of both handles broken off (car appeared to have been vandalized), and the one remaining Sebring has both handles (or it did when I left this afternoon). The driver's side had two spots where the burgundy paint had been rubbed-through to the white primer-coat.

Sorry I didn't call, but I was trying to get the item shipped today before 5PM cut-off, and then to get to where I could get internet access.

And now you guys are keeping me from weeding through more *** to delete . . . .


Keith. Guy I asked about the hood for already had it painted and on his car last night. He did grab the one from PnP.

I don't know what happened to the 94 but that nice looking 91 gained 100,000 miles since I last checked it. And what is it with all the GEN3's?

I went to Taylor's today. There's a red 1994 ATX with Dynomax in the trunk, grey leather, and the wheels were painted black. Seems oddly familiar. Anyway, it arrived August 6th and is a pretty nice complete car.

Thats the same car listed on CL, that was sold today :rofl:

Hopefully Keith will go make a deal on that SF 95 I looked at today. It was too rough around the edges for me, but for Keith swapping everything from his it will make an excellent shell!

Go Keith, go!
