Could this price be right?

Home away from home

Hard to believe they are only asking $42,600 for a 745 LeBaron town car. Am I missing something here?

IMO if it goes for that it's a steal.

This is most strange. Although the Sotheby's car is a different vehicle, a green "original", the realized price at auction seems about right. The Hemmings and other two ads are for the same unfinished, black, partly-restored car and range from $110K obo in Hemmings which seems reasonable, all the way down to $25,300 which is an insane steal. I don't get it.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The lower priced ads are probably scams.

Send me $10,000 and ill hold it for u.

I played with one of these scammers, a few years back, on a Corvette that was sitting in a friends garage and NOT FORSALE. Took him a couple of weeks to realize i was yanking his chain. Wonder what he felt like being scammed.
