Took my car out one last time

[Harlow]

Well I'm listing the satellite on ebay tonight. I took the car out for one last cruise and took some really great pictures. I also made a video for the ad that I thought you guys might want to see. I made it as if the person was inspecting the car. Heres my favorite picture I took yesterday:

I thought that was awesome!
There are only a few things that go better together than ZZ Top and cars!  (divorce papers and ex-wives)
I wish everybody offered a video when selling their car.

Very Cool!!

[Silver R/T]

[70charger_boy]

Good luck on the car, Harlow 

[TUFCAT]

[chargerman68]

Yeah I'm sure I'll be sad when I see it go on the trailer

That is an awesome picture! 

[Harlow]

That is an awesome picture! 

I'm surprised no one has noticed the puddle under the gas tank yet. The hold down ring on the sending unit came loose and when I crawled under there to fix it a bunch of gas came pouring out all over my shoulder....

[chargerman68]

[Harlow]

And good luck with getting a Charger after the sale 

[70charger_boy]

Wow!!  Your auction is going pretty good. 

[69bronzeT5]

At $3,713.13 US already. Looking good man. Good luck!

[supserdave]

Good luck man!

[chargerman68]

looking good so far...

[PocketThunder]

looking good so far...

Ya $4000 already with 3 days to go.  you're getting a pretty good price for your Plymouth Harlow.. 

[Charger-Bodie]

looks like it ends soon , do you have a charger lined up yet? is it going for what youd hoped for so far?

[Harlow]

I'm already making money off of it, but of course I'd like to see it go for more. There is still 4 hours to go, hopefully it will heat up. I know of some cars around here, but I haven't asked about anything, waiting until I have cash in hand.

[Rolling_Thunder]

I would have made an offer but I just cant swing it right now...     looks like you'll be doing very well for yourself though   

[69bronzeT5]

$5600 with 1 hour to go

[70charger_boy]

I just like to say that you did a great job with your layout and description on your auction.  I hope the high bidder goes through

Deffintley agree with you on that. 50 mins left

[justin1987]

Congrats man. 

$6750 seems like a good price.

[69bronzeT5]

Congrats man!! That should get you a decent 68-70 Charger project or a good 71-74 driver.

[Harlow]

I'm very happy.  Now the fun part begins. The hunt. I'm hoping to track down some cars during thanksgiving break. The buyer is a very nice guy from Canada. I'm hoping to buy a late 70's or early 80's Mercedes turbo diesel for a driver.

[70charger_boy]

Congrats man!! That should get you a decent 68-70 Charger project or a good 71-74 driver.

Or a really nice '66-'67 Tempest or lemans

[69bronzeT5]

Oh okay.........if your car is a P.O.S...then why did you get it

[Harlow]

I've got both a 68 charger and a 66 tempest tracked down...we'll see what happens.

I think I've already posted this picture of the tempest, but here it is. No picture of the charger.

[70charger_boy]

If you look at the Tempest.  Check to see if it is a post car or hardtop.  It appears to me from the pic that it is a post.  You can lowball the seller.

The 2 door post, (sports coupe) is rarer and llighter but most people prefer the hardtop.  Racers, however, prefer the Post car.

buy the charger

[six-tee-nine]

A friend of mine has a Tempest but it's a 4 door.

I dont know man i still think the Charger is way better looking....

[69bronzeT5]

BUY THE CHARGER!!!          BUY THE CHARGER!!!

[Harlow]

The nice thing about the charger is it will always have a good resale value. The tempest is just like a satellite. Take my car for instance. Its a number matching big block car with a ton of rare options. Its basically a road runner with GTX options. Well due to the VIN number it was not as desirable as a road runner or GTX. If my car were a GTX it would have brought WAY more than it brought as a Sport Satellite. So I'm thinking hold out for a charger so that if I do decide to sell and move on to another project I will be able to get my money out of it. Chargers and GTOs in my opinion are the two best looking muscle cars. By the way chargers copied the GTO's sail panels.

I've owned and restored two GTO's (64 & 66) and one Charger (68) Both are awesome cars! But when you go out cruising, or to a car show, or at the race track IF?? you see one Charger then you'll see 5 GTO's. Built a lot more Pontiac GTO's then Charger's. Just my  but after restoring both cars the Charger looks cooler and they had the Hemi, but the GTO's were built better!

[Charger_Fan]

Congrats on selling your Satellite & good luck on your upcoming car...Charger.

[chargerman68]

good price on your car if you dont mind did you make your money back from it...

[Harlow]

I made money off of it. But not a whole ton, a little more than a grand. It was that rusty roof that killed me. At any rate it was a great introduction to restoring cars. I had almost no idea what I was doing when I first bought it. I learned a great deal about engine and body work.

[chargerman68]

r u going to get that 70 that u posted pics of

[Harlow]

No. He wants 12,500. I (and lots of people on this board) thought it was way overpriced.

[chargerman68]

oh ok then its that  70 shell i was asking about

[Harlow]

That car had a decent body, but thats all it had. No dash or interior at all or engine.

[chargerman68]

oh ok
