Yeah I missed out on a 62 Lancer wagon years ago because I lost the phone number I wrote down after looking at the car at a show. Of course years later when I was looking at a picture of the dash I had taken I realized the phone number was clearly visible backwards on the windshield. LOL Oh well I wound up buying a 65 Baccaruda when I couldn’t find the phone number for the Lancer.
I offered to trade this guy even for a running and on the road 2001 Kawasaki 250 Ninja that should be easily worth the $1,000 (the ad says will trade for a motorcycle) but he said that bike was too small for him. Well that deal has sailed because I just made a deal to trade the bike for an almost new generator that I can use. I do have a larger newer bike I could offer him but I’d need cash back plus his car and I don’t know if he would want to do that. The car does look solid, he sent me a couple of pics that I’m reducing and attaching. He’s only about 20 minutes away but I haven’t actually gone and seen the car. I’m afraid to unless he wants to trade, the last thing I need is to “buy” another car. LOL
PS I agree Neal about the 65 Vaiiant, I like the looks of that one a lot.

Dan, that lancer looks pretty good, hard to find anything that runs for 1000 bucks. If it's as solid as he says. Looks like it has some 'custom " seats in it. A couple years ago there was a station wagon version here for sale that ran and drove for 900 dollars. I almost got it. reality prevailed

that white 65 valiant is sharp\

I agree but you never know. Normally the longer an ad stays online, the higher the seller's motivation increases. That ad went live just over a month ago, on Sept. 2, 2013 at 11:10PM EDT. May want to wait a week and if it is still for sale drive over on that motorcycle -- and perhaps a few bucks in cash to wave like a magic wand . :)
By the way, when the ad notes "only made in 61 & 62, and 62 was the only year for three on the column transmission." What does that mean? Was the 61 3 speed standard a floor shift?
Thanks.
