NO reserve !! We want to sell vehicles, not sit on them FOR 3 MONTHS. AZ TITLE IN HAND Ebay cancelled my auctions, saying we cant put a girl model with our cars in the main pics anymore... so there you go We suggest viewing our auction on normal large monitors and or tablet to get the most out of our large easy to view pics. Desert Survivor being sold by a very legit Ebay seller If you have any concerns about our vehicle, please ask or dont bid on it. Dont wait till after you win and then make up stuff on wondering if we are real or not. FEEDBACK !!! if you cant take 10 min to read thru our feedback on the cars we have sold here over the last 10 yrs, then you also shouldnt be bidding on our auctions. Ebay offers our Feedback rating for a reason,... try trusting it. BRIEF DESCRIPTION: I know some past history on the car, its been here in AZ its whole life. Parked a few yrs ago when it was suppose to get painted. The original Silver paint was so baked and faded the last owner primered most of it and lost then lost interest. The original color combo looks stunning when restored. While sitting in the last yr or so, someone stole the distributer and spark box out of it. I did buy a good used distributer for it but havent had the time to install it and find a spark box. With a weekends time of work it could probably made to run again. Brakes, rolls and steers fine. Az has been hard on the interior as well. Body has a few dents as does the tailgate. 0 rust of rot on the body / frame etc, being a true Az desert car. DONT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND apparently some people who use ebay arent smart enough to understand the rules. So if you have under 10 feedbacks, Ill be emailing you if you bid to make sure you are legit, if we do please reply or we will cancel your bid. Up for Auction: LOW FAIR RESERVE !!!
DRIVETRAIN: factory V8 matching 400 (351c family) has been parked for about 2 yrs. Ran fine when parked. Someone was nice enough to steal the distributer and spark box. Has factory options like PS< PDB< AC and more.. AUTO trans and 9" rearend of course. I got a good used distributer for it, may try to install it this week, time it and get a spark box. (no promises)
INTERIOR: take a look at the pics. Very original and sun damaged. Needs resto here too. Alot of the important stuff is there like the factory gauges etc. I does have PW and think it has a Power front bench seat. NO RUST behind the front seat in the spare tire area. AZ has been hard on most of the interiors not protected from the sun. EXTERIOR:the body pretty straight for its age, but this is a 90% rust FREE survivor. Windows roll up and down,The doors work fine. Rust or rot I should say is almost non existent on the body. Much nicer by comparison to a truck this old from the eastcoast. 1 dent behind the pass side door and tailgate works fine, but a little dented up.
SUSPENSION:the suspension looks normal from what I can see . but old.It Im sure will need some work soon like bushings etc in time. VERY RUST FREE UNDER THE CAR !! Has some old Crager style 14" chrome wheels on it. Toasty tires Brakes work ! 0 rust under the car, making taking this car apart, almost a breeze !! Check out ALL the pics below ----->
it may take a full minute for them all to load ifyou have a slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra scroll bar on the right side. Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate. more infoAFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.
There you go, probably The BEST represented TRUCKS on Ebay. Shows you all the good as well as any bad. We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars. People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end. Having as much as the original steel on a non restored car these speaks volumes. Survivors are getting harder to find ! Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating. People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.
Email us with ANY questions before you bid please
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself. We show you as much feasibly possible via pics. Dont let auctions withlittle to no pics try to fool you. If they cant take the time to take pics of areas under the car they are selling, maybe its not the best car to buy long distance. With other auctions, you really dont know what to expect until you take the car apart. While we go over our cars ALL OVER with great pics to help making your decision easier. Along with ANY other questions you may have. Email me for a quote for shipping.
