Morella and RU INJRD ---THANK YOU ----I asked for brutal honesty, and I'm glad you gave an honest opinion.
The reason I mentioned the engine size is because I've been asked about it MANY times, and people go "ooooo" and "ahhhhh" over it. They don't want the smaller engine types. The ad really should have been different here because here, we all know this stuff. People who aren't familiar with hearses seem to want to know everything I can offer about it's current state.
Water pump, tune-up, tires, exhaust, rebuilt trans, etc. are listed so you know you won't have to immediately have to have all that stuff done. The idea was to show that mechanically, the car is sound, and you won't have to dump all the money I dumped into it already. I thought it was worth mentioning, so that people knew they could trust the car to be driven away to another state somewhere. I would have paid more for the car if I had known all this maintenance was already completed.
The A/C----We've had some warm days last week, and it IS OK----But up until the last couple of days, I wasn't 100% sure----should I have lied about it, and never mentioned it? That sounds dishonest to me.
I guess what I've learned is to give no history, and not mention anything I think could use work. I really thought that some of the history would help put people's minds at ease, and make the car more sellable.
I WILL sell to the wholesaler for the $3000 though since you've pointed out that it's all the car is worth. And thank you for telling me that-----so far no one recommended it.
I agree with what you said about the economy, and that this is probably the only option. I need a more practical car, no one has offered a trade-----the wholesaler is offering cash, so I better not pass it up.
THANKS again for being honest about my ad.
