    Nice looking car. Definitely needs more photos inside and out. I would like to buy it without that $10K motor and those wheels. ;)

    No reserve, but will probably pull it at the last minute if not where they want it to be.

    Oh yes, that lovely color... I still say someone accidentally made too much paint that color and they decided to use it on the '73 Caprice wagons. :D

    I am still waiting to find one in that bronze color (which I think GM called light copper). ;)

    Here is a 1973 Caprice convertible, 1973 Malibu Estate and 1971 Kingswood Estate in that color. I have never saw one in person that color that I can remember (I am sure I may have growing up), and the 1973 Caprice Estate on "Dying Room Only" is the only '73 Caprice wagon I have seen in that color. (Bottom pic). :)

    The wheels are one thing, but there is too many changers under the hood for my liking.

    Bet the ad gets pulled or auction is cancelled. It's not going to sell as high as he wants it too. Bet bidding is under $6,000

    Agreed it will be pulled at some point prior to the eBay auction close! Weak bidding, but better pics, especially interior would help a lot!

    Ok, we can tell no power windows or locks, but that's it for interior power features! :disagree: No wonder bidding is so lackluster! :( You want healthy bidding, show us what ya got! (y)
