I do not show cars on Sunday! I worship on Sunday, I spend time with my family, I'm almost 66 years old and need some rest. I love cars and will help you 6 days a week, but not on Sunday. I'm a retired auto mechanics instructor and was a helicopter mechanic and instructor in the Army in the late 60s.

VIN    2W87K9n103508      HISTORY: I can't tell you a thing other than it was owned by a man near Cincinnati, Ohio.

 

 

 TITLE: Clear  title in hand with a VIN that matches, I am a mechanic, but I have dealers license to keep things legal, title will be transferred from me as a dealer.

 

IS THERE ANY RUST PROBLEMS?     The frame, the floors, the trunk all look good, no rust bubbles in the paint.

 

IS THERE ANY ACCIDENT DAMAGE? None that I can find.

 

WHY AM I SELLING THIS CAR? I’m a classic car restorer, but when I find a vehicle I like and can sell for a fair market price, I buy it fix a few things and resell.

 

PAINT: The paint has a brilliant shine, no dents, no dings, the car is reasonably straight to look down the sides, I see a couple of places that have been touched up, they are had to see, but I can see them is bright light, they are small and near the rear wheel well. I also see 2 or 3 little dimple size spots, the size of the end of my little finger, they are hard to see and not dings, I'm giving you a picky paint job inspection, the paint would be consider real nice.

 

CHROME:      Not much chrome, but its good, the door handles outside look good.

 

DECALS:  The decal look good, the hood bird looks real good.

 

INTEROR:  The interior has no bad smells, it is not new, but good with no real wear, the dash has some cracks and the console storage lid is loose on one edge, the door panels are good (but the narrow chrome on them is dull in some places), the headliner is very nice.

 

UNSERSIDE: Nice, but not show deatailed and not covered up with thick under-coating. No rust issues that I see that will cause any problems.

 

GLASS: The side windows go up and down good, they are electric, the windshield is clear with no chips or bulls eyes, it has one tiny wiper mark less than 1 inch long, the drivers window has some marks where it has rubber the weather stripping over the years.

 

 

SOUND SYSTEM: The radio is decent, its a AM/FM cassette.

 

AIR CONDITIONIN: Still on the original gas system.

ENGINE: The engine runs good, its a 6.6 V8, 403 cubic inch. It runs good, no knocks, no rattles and no blue smoke.

 

EXHAUST SYSTEM:  Nice sounding exhaust system, it has the Muscle car sound.

 

TRANSMISSION: 

Turbo 350 that shifts good with no slip, this is a 3 speed automatic.

 

REAR-END: No whines or growls, it a highway gearing and it is positive traction.

 

BRAKES:

Disc brakes on front and drum in the rear, they are power assisted and work good.

 

STEERING: The steering is good, the car is power steering.

 

WHEELS AND TIRES : The honey comb wheels have been redone and look real good, the tires have decent tread left on them.

 

LIGHTS and wiring: The head lights work, the tail lights work, the brake lights work and the turn signals work.

Interior light works.

 

 

THE GAS GAUGE WORKS! SPEEDMETER WORKS! Horn works! Wipers work!

.

GUAGES: The gauges work, the indash tachometer works, the clock runs, but is slow.

 

HOW DO THE DOORS AND HOOD OPEN AND CLOSE? They open and close good. The door are not famous for closing real good on a Trans Am.

 

 

TRADES: Please no trades, they never work out and are just too hard!

 

The rest of the information is boring unless you are really interested in buying the vehicle, its just buying details like shipping, paperwork, who I am, where the car is located and how to pay and contact information.

<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>I DO NOT SHOW CAR ON SUNDAY>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

 

PAPERWORK: I know what to do! We are just a father/son 2 man operation, but we are a Tennessee licensed/bonded car dealer and have sold cars all over the US and exported many.

 

THIS IS NOT AN AUCTION, THIS IS A FIXED PRICE LISTING: I reserve the right to stop the listing at any time and sale the car “come look”.

 

I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO STOP THE LISTING AT ANY TIME. THE CAR IS FOR SALE ON THE LOCAL MARKET.

 

WHERE THE CAR IS LOCATED: The car is here at my garage in Athens, Tennessee. Athens is in east Tennessee, we are 50 miles south of Knoxville and 50 miles north of Chattanooga. Look at a Road Atlas and follow interstate 75 south from Knoxville. I live one mile and one turn from the interstate exit. My zip code is 37303. The closest large airport is Knoxville. Athens does have a good small airport, but has no commercial flights.

 

WHO YOU ARE BUYING FROM: My name is Ron Watson and I live in the small town of Athens, Tennessee “Athens is called the friendly city”. We are located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains in east Tennessee “I am truly qualified to be called a Hill Billy”. I am almost 66 years old and work with my son Keith who is now 41. I am now retired and living my dream restoring, selling and improving classic cars. For 12 years I was an auto mechanics instructor at Tennessee Technology Center here in Athens. I am also a veteran of the US Army; I served as a Chinook helicopter mechanic, crew chief and instructor in the late 60s, I did spend a year in Vietnam. I’m Southern Baptist faith and proud to be an American. I’ve been married to the same good woman for almost 42 years. LIFE IS GOOD IN THE GREEN HILLS OF EAST TENNESSEE!

 

US OR EXPORT “I like Nations Auto Transport. They are located in Kansas City.

Contact: Jim Page his office number is 816-295-6887 and his email is jpage@shipnat.com

 

MY AREA CODE FOR TRANSPORT: The area code for Athens, Tennessee is 37303. I live 1 mile off a major interstate (I-75) and 35 miles south of interstate 40, so transport is usually very fast.

 

PAYMENT: I require a $250 deposit for a Buy Now or to hold the car.

I will take paypal for the deposit, but not for full payment.

Option 1: Pay the old school way face to face.

Option 2: Pay by check, I will wait till the check clears, I have had

a fake bank certified check.

Option 3: The safest is to let our banks handle it, my bank is a

member of the US Federal Reserve, this is called wire

transfer. And its safe for both of us.

 

WILL I HOLD THE CAR UNTIL YOU GET HERE TO LOOK OR HAVE IT INSPECTED? Not without a $250 non-refundable deposit! I have held too many cars that people promise me they are going to buy and they never show up, their wife won’t let them buy it, they can’t get a loan or they just back out. Before you drive or fly a long distance you need to make sure the car is not sold. “The way I look at it is until you pay a deposit you’re just looking and dreaming”.

 

INSPECTIONS: Please come look and be happy. All inspections are required to be done before the end of the listing. I listed this car as I see it as a 66 year old car restorer, please come and judge it for your self. I judge the car to my standards, this may not be yours. Paid inspectors are unpredictable, you might get a good one, but some of them do not impress me at all,  they can make a good car sound bad on the report. They have to be very critical to cover their back sides and all their concerned about is getting paid. I understand how hard it is to buy a car without looking, but I think you should come look yourself. I don’t like paid inspectors, I like for the person that is buying to inspect for themselves. I think its fine to send a friend to inspect for you. To make it clear, don’t hit the buy now button and then inspect, come inspect first!

 

If you are not registered with ebay motors, I will work with you, "YOU CAN BUY DIRECT".

 

BOTTOM LINE: My firm price is $13,999 I'm asking more on the local market. The game is not rocket science, ask a price and come down. It’s not fun to bargain over the cell phone all day long with people that live 2000 miles away and are not going to buy anyway. My firm price is the Buy Now price. I have sold every car I have ever tried to, so I’m not motivated to be bargained down.

 

WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO SELL YOU THE VEHICLE WITH-OUT AN INSPECTION; YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE A LOT OF NERVE AND PLEASE DON’T BE A CRY BABY.

Read the ME section on the upper right hand part of the listing marked seller info.

Thank You,

Ron Watson cell: 423-506-8987 email: dreamcar@live.com

 

I am very careful about taking payment, I have had a fake certified check, it looked real and the buyer seemed real. I will take one, but I will check you out. I am ebay varified, that means you can buy ebays buyer protection plan and they will guarantee thats I'm real, they will not guarantee the car.
