    Looks like a nice car, and it's interesting that it's being sold with no reserve. The starting price of $500 was not that high. Good luck on getting it.

    Bid To Win!

    Good luck on your bidding...I hope you win it!:banana: Please let us know how it turns out. I really wish I was in a position to buy it. Its impossible to find a solid '73/'74 with all those high end options(gotta love that deluxe cargo area!). Even at that price I worry about some demo guys getting it. I've seen them pay up to $5,000(usually $3,500) for a cherry car and then demo it. Not in local shows, but the nationals where they can get $5,000 and up for being number one.

    Good luck, Spoiler, keep us informed. The car looks to be in real good shape. It says he has new tires on it; wish he had gotten white walls; it would've made a huge difference. I wonder what Pledge would do to that di noc. Certainly would give it a shot and see.
    I hope you win!!

    Coming down to the home stretch guys, I've been jumped but still hold on to the hope of winning it! Wish I had lil more money to just buy it now and be done with it, but don't so we'll just have to wait and see. Thanks for the support!!!

    Cool as heck! Keep us posted on how the actual acquisition goes, and post some photos when you get it home.

    I hope the car turns out to be everything you are hoping for.

    Thanks guys! Looks like a good buy, hope it turns out to be! Kinda nervous, first car I ever bought sight unseen, but it looks like a good car and the guy selling it has a resto business and was very informative on the car! Let you guys know Monday on how it is and how it went Sunday picking it up. Glad to be part of the wagon family now!

    74 Country Squire has new home!

    The car turned out great guys, I picked it up Sunday and I'm very pleased! Very solid car that just needs some little things replaced to make it great! Transaction went well and everyone was happy!
