    Hey you point me in the direction of a 3 grand hearse and I'll be there with the money in my hand.

    Perhaps its cause of AZ, unless your up north cars around here just do not rust.

    Go on Craigslist and go to different states. I just had over 10 to post here but I accidently hit the red x and closed the post. Don't have time to do it again. They are literally ALL OVER THE PLACE !!!!!

    I see nice hearses all over the place. Most want big bucks for them but they aren't getting it. Not even close. A good offer on a nice hearse should buy it. I don't happen to like them. At all.

    My wife wouldnt let me get a 1975 2 door impala (my first car) because we just had a baby, but she found my 76 clamshell on line and said that i could get that instead. I didnt even know clamshells until then. Now I love it and want more....

    This one is just sitting in the junk yard here in AZ - no price on it. It needs a lot, but its solid being from AZ. Its actually an Ambulance body... but its pretty much the same as a Hurst.

    And dont forget this one that I posted a few months back.. BIGGER is better!
    How about this 9 door.. had a 455 - no motor (I think).. but they only want $2500 if I remember right.

    How cool would it be to see this thing go down the track... the rear end has a different zip code than the front end.

    Us West Coasters (at least down south and in Ariz / Nevada / New Mexico) for the most part don't realize the problems owners in other parts of the continent face with rust. It's rare to see a 'rust bucket' driving around on the street. Small little spots here and there, but no big cancer.

    I have hijacked the thread sorry about that.

    That is a classic right there, a tad long, but still nice.
    I am a craigslist junkie myself, the last one I saw they wanted 5k for it and it was without a motor and tranny.

    I'll quote my wife with what she just said to me....

    "No lawn art."
