Re: Really odd advertising for used Packards?

Amen to that turbo. I paid a bit more than 1000 for my 50, but it was turnkey ready to go, good paint, great interior. Still paid quite a bit less than book for one in OK condition. The seller was asking a fair price so i did some research and decided not to haggle. Couple days later i was a new proud Packard owner!

I can't believe my eyes on how many deals are out there right now, but it also seems there's twice as much crap that people want top dollar for. Some of my favs:





Them: This is a restored firebird!
Me: New gauges and seats and swapping a chevy motor in doesn't mean restored.



Them: This is the rarer model, and you know it'll be worth more later.
Me: It was rare because no one wanted it when it was new either.
