IN addiation to collectorcartraderonline.com, you can also find nice cars on
www.cars-on-line.com. The price on your car seems way over market. THis guy is speculating. Hell, there was a 69 Mach I in dearborn that was recently sold that had a new 429 dart block, racing
suspension, top of the line everything, and a new paint job that was going for 29k. Your seller is just speculating on the value of his car relative to the launch of the new 05. His car will be for sale for a long time. For example, look at this redone 429 Boss Clone for $29. Now this price is close to the car's value and I predict it will sell for $26-27.

It took me over a year to find my car. I had several near misses and thank god I sent a mechanic to look over car that was in Waycross, GA. That saved me from writing off $14.5.
You have to check every day and be quick on the draw. If you see a car you like but it is in TX or FL, go to yellowpages.com and find a mechanic in the the same zip code as your seller. if the seller is a business, ask if he knows it or about it. Mechanics will look the car over and charge you between $50 to $75 to give the car a thourough check, much less than a specialized on line rip-off artists like one I dealt with.
Since you are in ohio, you can also check
www.phils-classics.com from time to time. I lost out on a car there to a buyer while I was waiting for my super customized $300 inspection report from an on-line inspection service that, in spite of several previous email exchanges between us, decided to manually type in my address when sending me the report rather than hit reply to an existing email. The result was a mistyped email address and the report was late. I would have bought but somebody beat me to it.
