1973 VW Thing

‘73 Super cool, one family owned, very rare survivor, VW Thing Convertible. Has been stored in the family's old barn for the last 25 years in the state of Ohio. It is a mostly straight, fairly solid body with some rust and patina. This "thing" is a great find. We washed the dirt off, pulled it our of the barn, put in fresh gas, a battery, oil in the cylinders - and it started right up. It ran and drove on the property; it does need brake work and tuning. The interior is all original. A brand-new top was purchased and needs to be installed. This is a great, worthwhile project. Everything that needs to be replaced, can be purchased. Truly a great investment, climbing in value every year, the current NADA book value is low $10,600, average $26,600 and high $44,900.  Don't let these high values stop you from making an offer on this truly rare classic. 
Pretty cool, "thing," huh?

1966 Dodge 200 D Pickup

‘66 was parked next to a barn since 1987 and was running at that time. Slant 6 223 motor turns over, needs work to get it running. Great project for someone who's into these rare old mopar's, restoration or hot rod. Was a county vehicle, no frills, not even a heater. Has a four speed on the floor with a granny gear. Just get it running and keep it a cool original patina. New slave cylinder was installed and slides into all gears. Original bone stock, very little rust. Southern California Dessert Truck. Original Black license. Very rare. Very Original. No Rust Condition.

1984 Dodge Ram Charger

‘84 Ram Charger, one owner, 318 V8, automatic transmission. All numbers matching, with only 129k original miles. Starts right up, runs excellent. Transmission shifts perfect, the body does have some rust, undercarriage looks okay, all glass is fine, frame is solid. Florida born and raised. The Ram Charger is becoming more and more desirable and harder to find, especially a one owner example like this.

1978 Vespa 50 Special

‘78 Vespa, has key and title. All original condition - very, very low milage - only 180 miles. Scooter was almost never driven, it has been sitting, new battery. Great share, all original paint and seat. No motorcycle license required to drive this Italian Classic Vespa. Sure to impress!
