DU SITE
D'ENCHERES <<EBAY-USA>>
|
- hôte :
e-bay,
le fameux site d'enchères aux USA qui comprend
toujours entre 1 et 2 millions d'objets à
enchérir. C'est celui aussi qui a acheté
notre iBazar
national avec ses 4 à 600 mille objets aux
enchères et qui est devenu ebay.fr
- voitures
américaines : il y en a toujours beaucoup avec
de superbes photos sur le site
américain.
Le site
français
propose en général entre 2 et 4 pages
d'objets et de voitures avec une certaine modestie pour
les photos. Ceci va sans doute changer
- photos : elles
sont de mustangtina-tina, nom de code ebay du

VI Regal AIR CONDITIONED
- Vehicle Description,
NOTE: auction is for car only and not for parts listed
below, which will be available to winning bidder at extra
cost. I bought this car primarily for the A/C unit, but
my plans changed so left the car as is. Car was
registered and inspected in NJ through 2000--note trunk
mounted brake light. Previous owner obviously tried to
keep on the road: repainted red (originally tan), brown
vinyl seat covers over tan cloth regal upholstery,
flasher unit in the cig lighter spot on the dash, trunk
mounted brake light, aftermarket AM/FM Cassette stereo,
carpet replaced. Original engine replaced with an OHV 6
and trans unit, most likely from a '63. I say that
because the A/C unit is the type used in '63's, the grill
is from a '63, and the trans dipstick is accessible from
the engine compartment. Accordingly, I do not know what
the true mileage is for the car or the engine.
- Vehicle Condition :
Car is in pretty good shape. Overall solid, but there is
a nickle sized rust hole in the right rear wheel well
opening next to rear door; some blistering at bottom of
left rear door, and some rust in the inner edge of the
hood (not visible with hood closed). Paint looks pinkish,
but will polish up to a reasonable shine: under the top
coat the paint is red, but the top coat/clear coat has
changed to dull and is flaking off in a few places. Note
that there are the accessoy door handle guards on the
front door handles. The interior is whole and complete:
Headliner was replaced also, door panels are stock. It is
reasonably clean for a daily driver. All glass is good.
Engine runs ok, a little smoke on startup but that goes
away after a few minutes. The trans shifts ok but is
sluggish overcoming inertia (bands need adjusting?). I've
driven the car several times to my mailbox (one mile
roundtrip) and the car runs ok and climbs my steep
driveway ok. The A/C unit does work, but would need to be
charged. Trunk is clean, spare is new and matches the
tires on the car. If you look at the pic of the rear of
the car you will notice that the gas cap is external. I
assume the gas tank or neck was replaced with one longer
than original (maybe from a '63?). There is no problem
with that--just wanted to point it out as a have an NOS
rear panel as described below. PARTS that I have
available at extra cost: NOS rear trunk panel, NOS hood
ornament, NOSR trunk mat and tire cover, new stop light
switch, used set of tail light lens, and manuals (shop,
chassis, body, owners). Package price for these parts is
$200. Also, I have a 259 2bbl (not certain what year)
mounted to a '58 automatic that came out of a '58
President, TT rear with finned brake drums, front
suspension/brake assemblies with finned brake drums, and
a front sway bar out of the same President that is
available (will also be available to buyers of my three
'58 Packards listed now on ebay.)
