Re: Pearsonville Auto Parts

Take a look at the "project cars". I thought the 4 door 61 Tempest (I wonder if it has a slant four in it?) interesting and in darned good condition for $1500, but the same as a convertible way over priced at $3000 (really ragged looking!). Further down is a 1966 Ambassador rag top in much better condition than the Tempest for $1800. Needs complete interior, but looks to be reasonably straight and rust free. It's worth closer to the asking price than the Tempest for sure!
