Anyone use craigslist.madison.com?

[Anonymous]

I was just wondering.

On one of the other forums that I frequent (Vintage Mustang Forums, VMF), a poster was ranting and raving about buying and selling on craigslist. Low and behold, I find that we have one here locally.

I found a 1967 Ford Galaxie convertible in Montello that I have taken an interest in. Allowing for the seller to contact me this weekend, I plan to drive up and take a look at it.

I haven’t spent alot of time on craigslist, but so far, I am pretty impressed with what I have seen.

I recently posted a couple things on craigslist, I’m suprised at how easy and efficient it is to use! Much better than sites like fsbomadison in my opinion

Glad to hear it, Garabaldi! I have been using this site for a couple of weeks now, and actually found a music instructor/tutor for my daughter on craigslist who comes to our house and actually charges much less than the music stores, and gives 45 to 60 minute lessons instead of the usual 30 minute lessons.

I have also been watching several top of the line Snap-On and Mac tools tool boxes also. I haven’t bought one yet, but the prices that I have seen on craigslist will be hard to beat anywhere else.

’65 Mustang Coupe – $4200

[Garibaldi]

Marshall,

How does that Mustang compare to yours?

If you are referring to the red 67 GTA, it would be much more desirable than a 65 or 66 since it has a big block (390HP). On the downside, OE would have been an automatic transmission. It seems that 67 are favored by those looking for that “Eleanor” look in a car. Putting the package all together though – red, fastback, big block motor, less than 90,000 original miles = big money!

Resale red will definitely do it! I’m going to be very interested to see how much this one goes for, thanks for the info!

I was also wondering about the one Amigo2k linked above:

Interesting car. I wouldn’t mind looking at this one. I believe ’63 was the first year of the Grand Prix.

Thinking about adding another one to your collection? icon_headbang.gif

The 1966 Pontiac Grand Prix at the US Marshal’s Auction today (white with red interior, 92,000 original miles) brought 15K and it was a nice driver quality car, or better.

Ah, no. If I was going to pick up a second car it would be a 60’s Malibu. My dad owned a 64 (new) and a 70 (new), so I think it would be nice to own one of his old rides.

That would be nice, you don’t see a lot of those at the shows.

Marshall,

Thanks for the updates on the auction! You were brave enough to tough out the weather, it certainly wasn’t relenting at all today! That was a nice Grand Prix, seemed like it was in good shape
