When you click on "About me" in the listing in eBay this is what it says: .......I AM LOCATED IN KINGSTON NEW HAMPSHIRE, AND I HAVE A FACILITY IN MILO MAINE, BOTH EASY TO GET TO, THANKS, BARRY 603-382-3212 MAKE SURE YOU GO TO MY WEB SITE AT WWW.OLDNEATSTUFF.COM

Or his wife told him to sell it and get it out of her yard and sight but he doesn't really want to part with it because he's going to restore it in 10-15 years. I like the above answer the best. Dialogue goes: "Honey, I tried to sell it but, ya know, the market is down and no one would buy it. Sorry..." Craig

I appraise cars for a living and thanks to this find, i am going to insure my 55 packard for 175,000.. cause it was restored of course. The sad thing is some dumb car appraiser might actually try to use this one day now that it is archived on the web..
ROTFL..Great Find!

Another possible reason for the high price may be that he has made a lot of bad investments in his retirement plan or other investments and hopes some one is willing to bail him out with a outlandish price. If he can sell his cars at the prices he is asking I would like to have him sell some items for me. Also agree with Craig in that cars with overpriced asking prices are what I call for sale by order of wife sales. Wife says "put that thing up for sale" husband does knowing that only a fool would pay his asking price if it sells they are both happy if not she is happy as that Thing is up for sale. When you go to car shows a cruises you see many cars with these kind of prices on them. The best bargains to be had are when a divorce or death of owner are involved sort of fire sales.

It's obvious that he is not looking for $79,000. Give it a rest. He's trying to part out the car.
