For those of you who may be interested in such things, that 1956 Packard Patrician located in Wayne, Pennsylvania, is up for sale on eBay once again. This has got to be the fifth (5th) time that I've seen this particular car on eBay since the Spring of 2011 - with no sale yet.

The car looks fairly nice by the photos posted and if my memory serves me correctly, the seller wanted to get at least $18,500.00 for it, but I have absolutely no idea whether that is the reserve on the auction.

It's a handsome car, but this is a buyer's market thanks to everybody being killed by declining incomes.

The Iraq/Afhgan stuff has cost each American household $40,000 and counting. It's being paid off by squeezing the taxpayers. Such is the high cost of Patriotism.

I can't argue with that . . . it definitely is a buyer's market. Great time to be looking to pick up a car, but a terrible time to try and sell one.

Unless you do most of the work yourself, you'll never get out of one of these cars what you put into it. When you take on a project to restore one of these gems, you do it for something other than monetary gain. Hopefully, when the car is finished, it will stay in the family for a time, if the kids and grandkids appreciate fine workmanship and machinery from a bygone era.

As of Saturday, 4 May 13, @ 7:00 pm EST, it was up to $7,600 with the reserve unmet. If past experiene is any guide, the bidding will probably stall around $14K to $16K with the reserve remaining unmet.

It boils down to people want what they want and don't try to confuse them with facts, such as a busted economy, losing $40-60K on their retirement funds and can't afford to retire.
The big money is out there, but only for incentive loaded corvettes and hemi-cuda convertibles.
