I'd take my chances on the CL seller. The Ebay guy looks like a dealer, so who knows what flaws are band-aided over...

Yea the little web sleuthing I did on the eBay seller (400+ listings) is that he's probably that well known 'con' signer in Grand Rapid MI.

Most of the feedback sales end in the 'Best Offer' phase. Sound Familiar?
'least he posts up a ton of pics, but as always none of the underside. I can't believe someone would actually think that car has 9,000 miles on it.

I think "car dealers" can pay a 2-300 monthly flat fee to ebay and can post something like 10 cars a month, no penalties for cancellation. We bought an adapted van from a place in Arizona that was using it as "cheap" nationwide advertising. eBay Motors - National Vehicle Subscription Agreement

Unfortunately, none of that helps with under-body pictures. :-D

Wonder if the Craigslist car is a true 440.

The eBay car is a transplant.

I like the CL Fury. A/C, AM/FM radio, power brakes, 440 and looks to be unmolested. How much TLC will determine the price.

hood pins black interior issues with hideous door panels and other issues for $18,900

Just wish someone recovered the white bucket seats to be reasonably close to the originals but it looks like it might be an honest car.
