Talk about frustrating.

The PH at the link below was for sale on Ebay in July for $29,900. I'd spoken with the owner and he was willing to let it go for $26,600. Sight unseen and unrestored I thought that was kind of high and I hesitated. Then I got word of another - a basket case which will qualify me as a professional mig welder by the time I get done with it, but for a whole lot less money.

Since my brother was out here at the time picking up some wings for one of his vintage planes, I asked him to stop in to look at the other one on his way back to South Carolina. According to my younger brother the basket case is rough as a corncob and the photos bore that out, so I'm still undecided whether I'll pull the trigger on it.

Anyway, while I waited to get word back from my brother the one on Ebay was sold. Now an auctioneer in Florida is flipping it for just about double the minimum amount the former owner was willing to take. Aargh!!!http://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/carsforsale/packard/hawk/1277741.html
