Selling HLS30-07291 mfg 7/70

[mckkm]

I bought this car 7 1/2 years ago. Drove it into my pole barn and havent had time to get to it yet. Stupidly I found time to completely salvage 2 parts cars (a 73 and 75) so I have all of their parts also, along with other parts. Anyway I have come to the conclusion that if I havent touched it since I've bought it I should probably let someone who will really appreciate it have it. I am attaching some scanned photos that I took when I first bought it. If you want more details/better pictures let me know as I now have a digital camera. Overall it is in pretty decent shape very restorable vehicle I think, battery area is good. Rust around the rear wheels/dog legs dont think super bad though. Missing rear vent covers and some rust holes on back hatch ledge which you might be able to see in one of the photos. PO had put in a 5 speed and signed off on 47,474 miles as the actual mileage when the title was transferred. Can't say if true or not just they signed off on that number. Probably less than 47,500 on odom as all I did was drive it home, park it and remove the battery. Guessing originally a California car by the AAA sticker in the window. PO said it had been parked for 15 years before he started driving it (he was a college kid and needed the money). Asking $2800.00 for it unless you guys say that is giving it away. You can reach me through this site or (269-353-2814). Car is in Michigan.

I also have a Black 72 with a G-nose, whale tail, and fender flares. Rougher than the 70, was thinking of turning it into a daily driver. No photos at this time. Asking $800.00.

Thanks

You need to take clear photos showing the details of the car if you want to sell it. You would have to get the car up on a lift and take pictures of the floorboards and framerails - especially when the car is located in the North, Mid-West or North Eastern States...

With the pictures you posted, there is really no way to even guess if $2.8K is too much or far too little.

FWIW,

Pretty close to mine -- 7273, but one slooooowly moving project at a time. Maybe I'll have mine ready before my 50tb Bday. Good luck, looking forward to seeing some more photos.

Please post some pictures of the actual "areas of concern" (floors, frame rails, doglegs, rockers, rear hatch ledge area, doors/hatch bottoms, spare tire well, battery area, interior shots (seats, dash, carpet, headliner, vinyl coverings) as well as any damage from accidents) as well as panel by panel exteriors depicting the true condition of the car.

I will do this and get them posted by this weekend. I had been planning to do that with the first post but time didnt allow it. I got sent out of town and wont be able to get photos for a few days. Should have them by the weekend though. Thank you for your replies.

If the girl in the picture is included I would pay $2,800 without even looking at it.

TRtom.....Did I see your car at the Z Doctor's shop a couple months ago......Is it a Florida car?

[TRtom]

Yep, that was mine. I bought from a guy in Florida who was a little misleading as to the condition so I had the Z-Doc do some work. He is not the fastest guy in the world so it was there for sometime. Really does know what he is doing so it was worth the wait. Got a good deal on the car, so even though had a few issues, I can live with it.

What brings you to see the Z-Doc in Roanoke?

Sorry it took so long to get these posted. Got sick and then the Thanksgiving holiday. Tried to post them yesterday but couldnt get the picts attached. Anyway, battery tray and spare tire areas are solid, interior vinyl and carpet look great maybe replaced at some time(?) it looks so good. Let me know if I can answer any other questions and I will do my best to get you the information.

Oh, it appears the car was originally yellow and was oversprayed orange at sometime in the past.

Here are the picts.

:stupid: Need help with getting the pictures uploaded. I keep getting an error message that says a security token is missing. Is there a better way than just attaching the files. I have 30 pictures and it looks like I can only attache 10 at a time? TIA for your help.:stupid:

I'm not sure that a post with 30 attached pictures would ever be considered appropriate for the "Open ZCar Discussion" forum. People trying to sell cars often have better luck posting a URL to a proper ad such as on eBay.

[mckkm]

I guess that is what I need help with; is being able to post a URL, as I see that is one of the options here. I agree that 30 attachments is probably out of line but I dont know how to get the information people were asking for in the appropriate format/method on the site. Sorry but don't have eBay or other experience so don't know what is needed. Thanks.

I found it easy to create an account on photobucket and paste a link there.

Just my 2 cents.......
