It's been for sale for quite awhile but the economy in Ohio is horrible right now.

Not too hateful though.

Let me ask my friends Bob or Ken. They are not too far and owe me some favors.

Uh, I would buy that in a second if I had the money and was looking for another 59. Thats a bad ass deal

Looks like the car I found in Dallas. Was told it's been sitting forever and is a 4 speed car.

thats a fine lookin car!! I wonder if the wife would let me have the two door twin of my car??

Jay, thank you for that additional ad. It had an e-mail address to leave a message where mine did not. So I shot one off. Let's see where this goes. I like the idea of the stick already set up in it. Would simplify a lot of things. Mark L

I hope you get it Mark and you're welcome.

Unfortunately, I doubt my brother will haul anything that far. He's in the Dayton area and has a big, but open, trailer.

Any progress?

Never heard back from them. Will have to make a call. Hope it's still for sale. But I'm starting get really into the '40. It will be light also, so it has a lot going for it. Mark L

A LOT lighter than even a gutted 59 Cat. 40s gasser coupes are just too cool.

I got a reply from Akron about the '59. They sent an actual video with all kinds of shots and angles of the car and it looks really good. I sure wished I had the TA money in hand, I'd definitely start negotiations on it. I'll need a transport also so I hope that isn't too expensive. talk to ya later. Mark L

Mark, definitely get that thing. That thing is so bad ass

Well at this time the owner and I can not agree on a price. I'm a little worried about the "new" paint job and what it may be covering. The one pic of the trunk shows a hole through the floor so I wonder what might be hiding. I offered $4500 and he said he would not budge for the asking price. And I still have to transport it. So I've moved on and I think I'll stick to my area and California. Anything close I can pick up my self. Or just continue on the '40. If it is the '40 I can spend the full amount on the car instead of losing some to the purchase of the next one. Hey, at least I have options. I've started sanding off the paint on the '40 and using flat black primer so it will start looking better. My computer took a crapper on me and I'm usiing a temporary comp of my sons. But my e-mails are not going out?? But I have internet?? Mark L

Have you tried Steve over at pontiacheaven?

There's always another one. Keep an eye open

I believe Mark tried to buy one of Steves cars but he didn't have a title for it

You should check your e-mail account settings. Check that smtp and pop3 server names are correct (as specified by your internet provider). Also check that your e-mail adress and logon code are as specified. If your internet works, then your email should also work, unless your account settings are wrong.

Good luck with your project !!.

Gawd sedans are so sexy.

Yes they are!

just a note guys. My hard drive took a shat, the second one in 10 months. I've been off line for a little while. Bought a new computer and am creating all my icons etc but we still don't have our original outlook working yet. Working off of temporary system but have no addresses. Buit now I can get to the boards. MArk L

That's no good Mark

OK second try. Lost the first one. I just can't get the '60 Catalina Gasser out of my mind. I found this 66 goat gasser vid and if you squint really, really hard and imagine it as a '60 CAt, this kind of sound and site is what's fueling my dreams. Found a really nice '60 Cat in Seirra Vista AZ craigslist that I sent a message to. Asking to lower the price. If I pay full price I'd have a really nice car but nothing left to build the gasser. But good start if I can get it for less. Anywho, this is the vid.

I may be hitting Steve up for the '60 he has--AGAIN--. It would leave me with a lot of cash to really build it right. You guys probably think I'm off the nuts here but I really have that dream, and now I'll have the cash to build it. Mark L

Yeah, hit up Steve again. Did he get the title deal straightened out?

I know how it goes to be dead set on one certain car

Mark this ad should tell you all you need to know about the car hes selling. It's like i can picture it in my head with all the details he gives in the ad...
