What's with people hiding their license plates? Anyone can see your license plates when your diving your car.

Restored 1940 160 engine does not run as smooth as it ought to....

The 1955 is probably a repaint? Or is water giving it some extra shine? The price might also be a bit on the high side.
The 1956 - I was unable to get any information from the seller, what so ever, including where the car is currently located (because it is not where the listing is). Not sure what the deal is, here. It was listed for a while, now, and no takers. Maybe he does not even have a car?

I bet these are just copy cats. Flippers/scammers probably started doing this so that you cannot readily identify the car (for "valid" reasons, such as stolen pictures or mark-up listing etc.) and everyone else followed the herd because, apparently, "everyone is doing this"...

The Onieda hoard I have thought about going to, but really how much more stuff can I use...? Especially when Mike Dulinski is slowly liquidating his stockpile.

The 56 I also never got a response back. The pictures seem a bit odd to me.

1950 Sedan. Either a Standard or Deluxe. Repainted a horrible color blue, looks like it is an old Earl Schreib job as I seem to recall them using a color like this for their bargain specials. Runs but needs a lot. Asking $5K. Florida:

1950 Standard Eight Sedan. Very original survivor car with original maroon paint and interior. Dash and chrome look very nice. Ad stated compression is low in two cylinders, so it will need a rebuild. Think this is a very fair deal at the asking price of only $3,500. Granby, TX.
