"Angelique"

 

Angelique is a 78 Glassic. The owner previous to the seller had a rebuilt engine installed, new tires, new brakes, and a nice new black interior installed.

The seller had the car painted. The picture does not reflect this truly subtle paint job. It was cloudy when these pics were taken.

I took the car with the seller in front and my wife in the back and we cruised up and down the interstate for a while. I was ready to try to write a check except ---
The rear brakes tightened up as we returned home and bellows of smoke were coming from both wheels. That put a temporary halt to the negotiations.

By the next week the seller had replaced a brake hose and says that all is ok now with the brakes.

We agreed on a purchase price of $12,000. Car was picked up the third week of June, 2001. Lots of nice re-done stuff on this car, but no trunk or luggage rack, no curtains, no wind wing windows etc. Plenty of chance to spend even MORE money.
