I saw that too. It looks like it was someones nice driver.

I like the 80-81 Bonnevilles. They still had a unique dash and front lamp arrangement to tell them apart from a Chevy.

 

Thats Fred The guy in Waterloo, NY who holds the Wagonfest. He is a honest guy to deal with, everyone in the Impala SS Forum is inlove with him. If you wanna buy a car from someone off eBay, the rumor is, Fred is the guy to look for.

 

I'm not so sure I agree with that.
Anyway. This car has a quickie paint job over some chipping underneath. This car shows its miles under that paint. Not that it's the seller's fault in this case. The car should go cheap and if Fred is the one that had it painted he may take a bath on this one.

 

It clearly states, "Newer" Paint, not New. From what I have heard and seen of Fred's cars, he doesn't do much to them except safety issues and clean them up. But thats your opinion and you are entitled to it, I know I would trust Fred without a problem.

I wouldn't mind the car for a second beater, but I wont own a wagon that only seats 6, its absolutely useless to me. A car that big without the extra seating capacity is like having one of them stupid buttass ugly FORD SportTrac things or the Nissan Frontier 4 door pickups with the 3 foot bed, nothing but wasted useless space in the rear!

 

Yeah...this wouldn't be a first and foremost car for me either. But if he were closer and it went cheap enough I might jump it.

 

Now I REALLY wish he was closer...I would have bought that rig. It sold for $729 & change!

 

I actually mentioned this one to my wife and it would have been OK with her if I made a reasonable bid on it. Just listed the house, though. Not the right time to be buying more 'stuff'. Another one will come along........

 

Figures, I tried to put some trust in ya about Fred.

 

Hey, KK...you are right next door to Fallbrook! Nicest box wagon on the net!
Makes this one look like a junker.

 

Very nice! I think I spy a Roadmaster in the background too!

 

Pretty nice! That was a steal for $729.81! It looks like there is a couple 90's GM wagons in the background, a woody on the right and a steel-side on the left.

 

Fred has one of the largest collections of wagons you will find for sale on one lot, thats what he specializes in.

I can't get that video to work. Says error occured. I was going to ask you about pix of his lot and why he didn't post some over on impalass. Glad to see this if I can get it open. He should post periodic shots of his lot. If I saw a few I liked I may take a trip.
