I still miss my Cortina.

It's pretty cool, and has the appeal of being a Gene Winfield design and the "Man From U.N.C.L.E." car's open-topped fraternal twin, but it looks like the offspring of a one-night stand between a Lotus Elan and a Deserter GT dune buggy. The coupe version with the gullwing doors was better-looking IMHO.

BaT, why do you torture me so? ;)

very nice, looks like fun.

Oh yeah. I love body color metal on the interior. This looks like the perfect vehicle for starting your own tubing or kayak business.

It would be shame to use this as pristine as it is.

not sure Chris, it's less than $10k and the floors show some wear. I'd say that's perfect. This thing will probably end up in nantucket.

Auction is at $3,550
I wonder what the final sale price will go up to.

$3,500+ seems way high for this truck. It's just not that nice of a truck. There have been a ton of much nicer 57-60 F100's on craigslist LA for under $3k.

I can't believe the money this thing is going to get. Someone tell me what I am doing wrong. I let this go for less than $2k.

Very pretty car, I would LOVE to have it.
But BMW people give me the creeps.
Much more uppity than the VW crowd....drives me nuts.

Aw, Randy. We're not all bad. Now, anyone who drives a V-10 m6 cabrio, they give even me the creeps...

I tried to sell my sister's 850i for her earlier this year...I have NEVER met so many horribly picky wiener buyers in my life.
It had one little rust bubble the size of a quarter on the roof and that "scared" one guy away "Its all rusted out!" he says.
Im used to old VWs... ALL of them need welding somewhere...its not "rusted out" until it folds in half!

I've always told myself that life's too short to own a British car but Hillman/Sunbeam Imps intrigue me. Rootes, rock, reggae...

a lot of british cars rule! triumph stag or the good dolly...sd1's are nice...what about a nice jag?

I've got my eye on an Imp in a junkyard near me, and I've always been a fan of them. Except for the rusted generator case, the unfinished interior and the ugly front hood vents, this is a beaut, and someone's gonna be real happy with it after they buy it.
