For Sale '72 Town and Country

[mopardug]

Hi all. Let me tell you a little bit about her.
She's green on green. 9 passenger. Rusty. Clock shows 82K, I don't think anyone knows. NOM '76 date. She lot drives. Most of the metal brake lines have been replaced, but there's at least one compression fitting. I have over 20 pics on forabodiesonly.com in that ad. Located in Central KY. I'm asking $3000 OBO, and it's negotiable. Might do trades as well. Non tilt/telescoping wheel, and doesn't have climate control.
There's pics here that aren't on FABO. Since you are the guru's I'm asking the same Q.

I sold that car from this site about 3 or 4 yrs ago, to a guy from Maryland. I owned it 11 years.

I grabbed some extra pics from FABO to help people here to make a decision.

Thank you for reaffirming Arizona is the place to live.

 

[Moparbrad]

Hahaha

It sure is.

 

[Cee Bodies]

That must be a Town & Third World Country.

Thanks Wollfen. I put the price where it is so that I wouldn't be bugged by every Tom, Dick, or Billy Bob. It's not firm. Also, if there's any interest in parting her, please start the conversation. The ONLY reason that she's on sale is that I was offered a sweetheart deal on a '72 Cuda. I just don't have the $$ unless I move her and some other stuff. Thanks again for looking.

I don't have a way to check the balljoints, but the steering components, tie rod ends, idler and pitman arms are tight. She has dual exhaust, and I believe it's all mandrel bends. This is the C Body site, what do I need to do to help sell her? Is anybody interested in her as a roller? What's the body worth, 700, 800, 900? A running 440/727, $1200-1500, $500 or so for the wheels and tires, $500 for the 8 3/4, more with a gear. Am I nuts?

If you part it out i could use the tailgate handle and the wheel covers...i have the same wagon but some douche repainted it and left the woodgrain off

Hello @mopardug, thanks for posting. Based on my most recent experience, you are looking at $1500 as it sits or $3000-$4000 if you spend the time to pull it apart and sell it piece by piece. Took me about 8 weekends to break a '73 NYr down, and a year later I'm still peddling what's left. As a roller, it will be lawn art for years. Yes, you will sell the motor quickly, $1K maybe? I suggest you do every thing you can to sell it whole, Craigslist, eBay, FB, whatever. Once you start to tear into it, go all the way, but it will take time. c-bodies are a tough market.

 

[mopardug]

Yes.

Ok, I'll pretend that I'm in Kansas: show me.

That's a pretty wagon. I don't remember seeing any wheel covers, but I'll keep you in mind about the handle.

Thanks for your insight. I actually thought that there might be some interest since she's a wagon, but no real interest at all. Have you sold on EBay? I bought a golf bag 10 years ago, and that's it. I just hear folks complain about selling there.

Yes, I sell quite a bit on eBay, it is what you make of it. Expect to pay 15% of what you make to ebay fees if selling parts, but I think there is a flat charge for selling vehicles with no listing fees for the first 6 times, if it takes that long to sell.
