    Can you imagine if some fool struck a deal with this guy, thinking he bought the red one and then when he went to pick it up, saw the real one?!! I wonder what the actual Squire was like.

    Call his realtor for the vacant house though............


    If you do the satellite view seller listed in Edson Alberta, looks like he's living in a base ball diamond dug out, guess that's why the house is vacant:rofl:

    update

    Here's some news on the '71 Ford my friend bought for me

    It's a single owner 6 passenger Country Squire.
    Garage kept all its life, was sold because the owners (poster's Aunt) passed away and house was sold few weeks ago.

    The seller lives three hours away from the house, he told my friend he couldn't drive there to take any pictures, and before this weekend the car needed to be gone. With a little negotiation my friend made the deal and picked up the car last friday.
    Car runs, has very old flat tires, nice paint and interior. Some fixable rust damage.

    I can post updates on the progress later.. My friend will put some TLC in the car and then we decide if its the right car to ship over to Europe or sell it for hopefully a small profit.

    Congratulation Jofo. Looks like a nice Squire. I'll bet it'll clean up real nice and will look like a totally different wagon. Be sure to post some pics when you're done with it.
