Pretty sure this is the same wagon seen three years ago in Detroit, although the old photos from the previous thread are expired.

It's a nice one, or at least it was.

 

Transmission no biggie for 600. From one photo

 

If this is the car listed from 3 years ago, original listed in Detroit, this 1's in Flint - same area. read what the original listing stated, need a ton of work without mentioning trans. Average price on transmission replacement $1500. (not used) plus everything else from original listing - you'd be well over 3 or 4 grand by the time your done. even if you do the work yourself I think you' be at 3. plus the cost of the car and transport to where ever.

 

Apparently someone liked it as the ad is gone.

 

sold, my friend contacted them about this and was 4th in line

 

deep pockets

 

Not necessarily. In February I had my '78 Toronado, which did not run but could be pushed around, transported from Georgia to New Mexico. The price was $950 and was broken down as follows: $800 for the transport plus $150 for the fact that it was non-operative. It's more, yes, which is to be expected, but it doesn't break the bank.

 

jaunty
sorry I was referring to the repairs

 

How's that going by the way?

 

Progress is in fits and starts but generally moving forward. I've posted more info here:
