What did you buy yourself today - PART 1

[Zet70]

If you dont mind sharing, what was the purchase $?

Got her for $2850. Supposedly the entire driveline is brand new. Brakes, cooling, wiring, suspension. He says he'll provide $8k in papers to prove it.

The dash is complete, seats are trashed but the rest of the interior is ok. I'm thinking some 90's linc leather seats from the junkyard and clear coat on the patina. Then just drive her.

Watch for more pics next week

You guys are killing me. In 1974, I was 16; my buddy and I bought one of those for $50. It ran quite well.

Happen to have the air filter/ assembly for her still?!

Not a bad price at all, and even though there's patina, it looks really solid and rot free.

Crap......



1952 Plymouth cranbrook. Completely restored driveline and brakes. Over $8000 in receipts. We shall see how she looks in person next week.

Are they going to float it on inner tubes from Cuba?



For a mere $16K more you could have bought a 49 Merc from that drunk guy on Fast N' Loaded, er, Loud.

Sig E2 grip kit (grips, different decocker lever, mainspring strut and support) and a couple of 14 round magazines

Sadly no. Neither one of us saw the investment potential. My next car was a 1971 LTD with a 390. Then a Charger w/440. lucky I survived both of them.

Picked up my AK-74 today too - what the heck, it's Friday Just ordered a great wood grip to match the furniture.
All my parts come in next week for the AR 7.62x39 build - life is good ..............

Nice score!

Too bad Taurus' bluing doesn't look like that anymore.
