Re: 67 in TN

we'll I wasn't able to get down to see the patrol. Hope it sticks around for a bit longer. I'm hoping he will start dropping the price.

Re: 69 Patrol in Tn

He said he took the springs off and had them re arched. and added another spring to give it some lift. hmm not as good as a set of replacement springs - re-arched springs typically sag back to their original position after awhile, and if he added leafs then that will make the ride more harsh... :? ...

He seems to be flexible in his price. I haven't negotiated with him at all. I am waiting to see the one in Chattanooga. I was thinking around $2500 to maybe $3000? http://www.60patrol.com/forum/posting.p ... 16&p=21655#

Re: 69 Patrol in Tn

that one looks like it has aftermarket springs - it looks lifted, and the springs look to have more arch than stock - if those are a set of Alcan or Dobbinson springs under it, then that is a thousand dollar head start on the project.... 8-) He said he took the springs off and had them re arched. a...

Re: 67 in TN

Thanks for the observations. Yeah the price is high. I would be surprised if the brakes have been gone through. Would need a compression test for sure.

I have seen this one in person, it's 30 mins from me. I don't like it as much as the other because the interior is really rough, seems to have rust issues. and it's lifted and on large tires. Missing lots of glass and signal lenses. I know the glass is easy enough to fix since it is flat glass... but.

Re: 67 in TN

Wow. So much for being original. i definitely doubt it has 10000 miles. I knew that thing in front of the heater wasn't original, but just didn't know what it was. I knew that the fuel line was kind of looking like it was in the wrong place but wasn't sure. I know the lenses are rare but at the same...
