So, I was very intrigued by a car listed on the Inland Empire Craigslist last week. It sold this week, and was wondering if anyone here bought it.
As with any old car, it had pluses and minuses. The biggest plus was the color - L65K Ravenna Green. Although I am very happy with my Bahia Red car, I really want a Ravenna Green one someday. It had also been "in the family" since 1985. Seemed to be relatively rust free. Long list of work done, including rebuilt engine and transmission, and lots of new parts. As promising as that sounds, there were some significant concerns that I had. Lastly, the pricing model: it was listed as "$12,500 or more - highest and best offer." So, basically an auction without knowing what you're bidding against. I reached out to the seller via Craigslist email, but just got back a form email saying they had an interested party coming to see the car, followed by another form email saying it was sold. So, apparently, it generated enough interest that they didn't bother with individual replies. So, anybody here the new owner? Would be interesting to hear "the rest of the story." Here are some pics from the advertisement:      |
