Re: [FWDLK] Richard Carpenter's 1959 Sport Fury



dear Ron,
 If the buyer of the Carpenter car doesnt have the information we have collected here,  what will the consequences be?
I completely agree that the seller should be held accountable to his claims, but chances are very good that the buyer won't care and it won't really matter. This of course annoys me, as do the drivers who don't stop for red lights, people who brag about cheating on their taxes, etc. Even if the seller gets the  facts  sent to him, the chances of him changing his sales pitch are remote at best.
 a negative realist,

Maybe this should be forwarded to the guy selling the car so that he can amend his description.

In answer to all the speculation on the '59 Sport Fury convert.  Richard will be 55 in October.  Neither he nor his father was the original owner of the car.  He bought it about '80 and I think it came from Tennessee.  It was restored "ecconomically" by '83  Was a body off frame, but had rust in all the normal places in fenders, quarters, etc. and I do mean all of them. "Ecconomical" way at the time was to fiberglass all these areas-cloth and resin. All the body work has held up real well, but it has just sat in a warehouse all these years.  It's a real nice looking and running car and is a genuine Sport Fury.  Worth the opening bid?  Probably.  Worth lots more.  Probably not.
