Rare '89 on ebay

Post by shelbyscarab »

1989 Royal Gold with beige interior. Currently it has a replacement Black top. I think it should be Chocolate or Beige top.

#52 dash plaque

1 of 19 w/ chocolate top
or
1 of 3 w/ beige top

There was a 1 of 1 in the combination of Royal Gold paint, gray interior, & black top, but since the interior is beige, its probably not this car as the owner admits to the new top.

Hereis the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... otohosting

If I only had a few LESS things going on right now.......... :?

Naw, I can't buy any more. Storage here in NJ is difficult to find and sometimes really overpriced. Currently, I am paying $4.500 @ year to store 3 cars. Adding another car would up that $1,500 per year. The storage - over the long haul - costs MORE than the car does.

I would only re-paint your car, if I took out the front seat (1) and peeled up the carpet after removing the sill moulding and found gold paint or overspray. If I found yellow, I would NOT repaint it.

Remember...the listing says that your car had a grey
interior and a black roof, so....no need to buy the roof...

Too bad I'm too far. I have heated storage for $350 a year. Room for about 25 cars. And the owner is a FORD lover.

Geez, & I thought I got lucky??!!

I had 1 car in commercial storage, heated & Air Conditioned,
under 24/7 guarded & alarmed, with each car in an
individual locking garage, a NO BURN building, of all
concrete & brick, desingned FOR car storage, and it
was $335.00 @ month. After dumping eight thousand
for 2 years I got the heck out. They had 75 locking slots
-- all rented and a long long waiting list. Mine was
rented 10 minutes after I pulled out.

Then at the same time, I had a dirty, ant infested, ice cold
in winter & a hell-hole in summer 1 car rented garage,
with a sometimes broken lock for $225.00 @ month.

I got fed up and went onto craig's list. Pure luck.
I found utopia.
A millionaire had bought an all brick building, and he
had it air conditioned & heated & dehumidified, and hard-wired
to police & fire departments, with an audible exterior alarm with
a power remore door and. get this...hardwood flooring
inside. But, it holds 12 cars, and he has only 5 cars, so...
he rents out the other 7 slots. I immediately rented 2.
The other 5 people are screened (as was I) and are all
car-people with really special show cars in there.
It's like a palace compared to where I was, AND it's
just $150.00 @ month, per car, or $300 @ month for me,
for the 2 cars. I was given remotes and I let myself
in &out whenever. I am the only one in there who
uses car covers. Best yet, the place is hidden at the end
of a narrow little road.
My "landlord" has inthere a Rolls Royce in special paint
of bright gold metallic with a dk. brown padded top and
a Porsche and 2 Mercedes.

Sandy, he's from Canada. I think at the current exchange rate $350/yr Canadian = $3500 USD :D

Not only am I in canada, look how far north I live too, many times I wished I would live south like you. But Sandy you have a good price. The place I have is a steel building insulated and heated but no A/C and no dehumidifier, but still a very good place for the price. Also wired for security and I have the access code and key. A good friend of mine :-)
