Too early for real bidding to start. Nice rust free floors though (G)

I'm not bidding until he tells me about the hog troughs and frame. The car is from RI, 3-4 winters and the car is trash up there.

That would be my concern too. It looks like pretty heavy rust on what you can see (like rear springs). Paul Johnson

There might be a secondary reason not related to the car. The economy: I went into work Thursday only to find that my company completely collasped and I am now looking for work.

The economy only affect working folks, I've had a very good year on ebay, but many of my cars have sold to ebay'ers with big bank accounts. If anything, the market is up again, but if it's gets soft, I'll buy a few cars.

Well, I will have a few for sale soon! There is always plenty of money around, just it never seems to come my way!

What city do you live in Bob? lou

Tucson Arizona.

Well, the listing has been pulled.

The only two Avanti(s) that I know of in RI are owned by former dealers and are low mileage garage kept specimens. BTW, they are 1964 R1.

I haven't heard that either is for sale though...

Exactly Right Mortgage bank. No advance warning for the workers. I opened my newspaper and the headline was company stopped business. Went to computer and accessed outlook for the company and CEO sent message out at 349am that day was our last day. 6000 people nationwide out of work.
