    Perhaps I'm a bit late in saying so but I do think it's a nice color/wood-grain combination on the car.

    Looking at your pictures there is one from underneath left side by rear door, look closely at the left rear door and it's VERY apparent that the lower edge of the "pinch weld" has rust streaks bleeding down the lower edge of the door and the lower lip. But, I am VERY wrong. You don't have to be so "smug". You sold it, great for you. Now another person is trying to double down on what they paid, he is even more vague on his description of the car.

    Either way , doesn't really matter to me. I made an offer ALONG time ago for a car that had not been pulled out of a storage building for pictures, when I asked about getting more pics I was informed the car was over an hour from you, I thought about having my nephew drive it home, and you responded very rudely that you wouldn't trust a 30 some year old car to drive that far, and on top of that the title wasn't in your name. BUT, you were the one being heckled by the guys on this forum. You further proved how much of a @"'. You can be by your responses later on about "all you tire kickers". I would have to say you must be related to another member on here from Texas that has clam shells that has now been banned. So, your story, tell as you want. Your post tell the story of exactly the kind of person you are

    Sour grapes STILL, eh, Swanny the Big Spender?

    Kick YOURSELF for being too lazy to make the drive to look at the car and too cheap to boot, but don't kick ME.

    Well, the car's now available from a person who's much nicer than I am.

    Bid on it and put your money where your mouth is.

    We'll watch.

    Pretty sure if you go back and look. I have bought 7-8 driver wagons in the last 2 years on here. And why would I overpay for a rusty Pontiac wagon? I was on the mark for a NON RUNNING wagon(which it was when it was first posted). Sour grapes? Nope, I work with people that work with me on deals.

    And pretty sure if anyone does buy this car off the current sellers description they will be very unhappy. No mention of missing woodgrain, no mention of dent in the right fender, no mention of rust on the car ANYWHERE. And actually if you zoom in on the pinch lip on the right door you can also see the rust starting on the corner of that door. There are dents in the hood, many imperfections for a now once again changed price on ebay of $10,000. It's almost like your still involved in selling this car, maybe that's why no one wants it

    Failed to sale today on eBay day at $10k. Go figure. Bets on how soon it'll be back?

    I am not a buyer, but I emailed asking about the fender missing the woodgrain, and about any rust. His response..............nothing

    Expect the current owner will have it awhile - not a $10k wagon at all.

    $7600 at eBay this time. Reserve not met. The '76 Buick Estate Wagon at $4500 was a MUCH better value. :2_thumbs_up_-_anima
