Pretty unique as far as clamshells go. Love that interior.

You should plan on the rust being a bit worse than what is showed......

Currently at $12,100 with a little more than 2 days to go..... This might hit $18k or so....

 

I like the slicksides. It makes the car design look clean and uncluttered. I wonder if this car saw service at a funeral parlor? Reason I say this, back in the 80's early 90's when I lived in PA a funeral parlor had a slickside Buick wagon with the similar treatment as a go-fer car for supplies, flowers, etc.

 

…and pick up bodies from the hospital!

 

You would think....BUT I think there was a state law that was something like if you pick up a body, it has to be in a purpose-built vehicle...Otherwise, you'd have people picking up Uncle Harry in his favorite Packard or T-bird.

 

This probably varies from state to state depending on laws…but here in NJ my wife has family members who own a funeral home and they do “removals” with an ordinary mini van with rollers in the back for the coffins. Windows are tinted so not always blocked…but I do remember station wagons being used years ago before window tint and had black vinyl with landau bars. Many homes use windowless cargo vans.

 

SOLD for $12, 100.

 

Well bought I feel.

 

I would agree.

Not perfect but we are talking a 50 year old car this point.

The good points outweigh the flaws.

 

Rare auction that NOBODY came along to bid it up in the last hour........

 

New owner got his car
