FW: LOW MILE 1959 Rambler (big car) for sale!!

[farna@xxxxxxx]

Not mine, I just answered a question. The car is in great condition from the pics (lots of good pics), but is located in Boise Idaho. One of you guys in the Denver or Seattle-Tacoma area should be able to pic this thing up at a reasonable price! Car has 60K on the odo and looks to be original, not 160K. That's just a GUESS on my part, but pics seem to support that. I've asked the guy how he came across the car, will forward that if I get an answer.
