Best Offer? Nice enough for a cowl top for sure…
$150/obo. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If my price is too high, offer me less, but I see people asking between $250-400, so I...
Sorry to leave you guys in suspense. I wanted to work out some kind of resolution with Jegs before I posted anything. My anvils weren’t anywhere...
Wish I had seen this before ordering the Jegs English Wheel. I spent an extra $150 on this wheel compared to the unit from Harbor Freight, because...
Not my current “hot rod”, but my old 1953 Dodge Meadowbrook… [ATTACH] …always wowed people whenever I would pop the hood. [ATTACH] I also used...
SOLD
That does sum it up quite brilliantly and is great advice (this and what you said in the previous post), and it’s an excellent spirit in which I...
I (mostly) put myself through college painting cars in a two car residential garage. Then I ran a small but successful repair shop out of said...
Imagine a government official making you wait for four years to start living your dream. I’ve got too many friends who I saw die far too young to...
My understanding of this (and I’m not a lawyer, or a CPA, but I did study accounting in business school), is that an individual is not able to...
I would say option #1 and enjoy the car a little bit. Save up and do the mags (I hope you’re going 14” or 15”) while the car is still flat black,...
See, and just like that, I understand where you’re coming from. Well, sorry to wreck your escape. Hopefully not much harm done.
Please delete
I’ve not said a thing about politics. Inflation is at a 40 year high, and that’s a fact, and while you can make it political, it also exists as a...
Haha! That kind of says it all, doesn’t it. To answer that question as honestly as I can, I would like to have a business that feels a little bit...
Maybe when I go out there to visit @saltflatmatt I can come take the tour. :)
We’re Golden. Sorry if I come off as bristly, but I haven’t been on here in a while, and every time I have a hiatus (I’ve had a few over the 14...
Did you even read the main post? I’m not asking what something is worth. I’m asking what effects the current economic state of the US, and the...
Maybe I’m just hanging on this part of what you said a bit too much. But you did say “instead of”… I kind of got into it with Moriarity over this...
Jeeze, Moriarity, I’m speechless. I would gladly pay $5 to tour your museum, and that’s saying something, because I’m broke! What an amazing...
I disagree. It’s incredibly informative. It’s market research. I’ve got an excellently diverse cross-section here, and I’m reading every word and...
No sir. I always list hot rod and custom-related stuff here on the HAMB too, BUT, and I hate to say it, Marketplace, more and more anyway, seems...
Fair points! I did miss the Futurama reference, but you may or may not have caught my Mitch Hedberg or Joe Dirt referencing in my OP.
This reply made my day. A man who get’s it, right here. We’re all just selling our time. I’m younger than some, but old enough that I’m starting...
GOOD point, Gimpy. Good point. And one not often (enough) considered by folks who buy and sell.
I’m not going to “like” your reply simply because I can’t stand this property tax on vehicles, idea. We really wanted to move to North Carolina a...
Olscrounger! Love your handle. Yeah, well, and part of the reason I wanted to have this discussion is because it’s getting downright expensive to...
Ah, see though? You’re talking about throwing morals and conscience out the window, but you’re saying you don’t buy from those guys who price...
Good point about junkyards closing up. Funny point about sharks not having necks. I’m very pleased with all the discussion. This is exactly what I...
That’s a great example. When the pair sold for $2,500 you probably had the guy who bought yours for $1,000 and another guy duking it out. I’ve...
