Classic Car for Sale - $5000

My garage is full right now, so I wanted to pass on this great find to one of you. No pictures, but it sounds wonderful. Someone needs to snatch this one up quick.

1936 STUDEBAKER, RARE FIND. THIS OLD CLASSIC HAS BEEN ON MY GRANDPAS FARM FOR OVER 65 YRS. THE PAINT IS ALL BUT GONE, IT WILL NEED NEW TIRES FOR THEY ARE OLD, CRACKED AND FLAT. SOME CHICKENS MADE THEIR HOME IN THE FRONT SEAT BUT I THINK A FOX MUST HAVE GOT TO THEM BECAUSE WHEN I FOUND IT, THERES WAS BLOOD AND FEATHERS EVERY WHERE. AT ONE POINT IN TIME, A COW GAVE BIRTH IN THE BACK SEAT. HOW IT GOT IN THERE IS ANYBODYS GUESS. IT MUST HAVE BEEN COLD OUTSIDE. THE DOORS WERE OPEN. IT DOES'NT RUN AT THIS TIME. HAS'NT BEEN STARTED IN OVER 50 SOME YEARS. IT PROBABLY WILL NEED A LITTLE ENGINE WORK. WITH A LOT OF SCRUBBING IT COULD BE NICE. LEAVE A MESSAGE IF INTERESTED

Not the Studebaker in the ad:

But that would be such a lie! I don't go to church any day of the week.

Put a sign on it - Driven by a little old lady to church on Sundays.

Well, that's what I call a "fixer upper". I don't even take care of my bike. I take it to a bike shop when something goes wrong. Just think if I had a car that needed work ...

One time I had this bright idea that we would move to SW Colorado and I would operate my uncle's trading post, and Mr. Tbend could find a job... um... fixing airplane engines at the local airport. I was trying to think of something technical for him. That's when he told me he hates working on motors and engines.

Ted managed to find one just like it.

This sounds like something in my Uncle Robert's back yard.

What really got me was the fact that a cow had given birth in the backseat.Your post cheered me up today. Thanks!

Thanks but I've already bought my new, used car.
comment by nittineedles on Oct 24, 2010 10:31 AM ()
Darn, huh? I wonder where your trade-in is right now.
