OK, So i found it at a garage sale. That part you know.
My "smart phone" has this thingy on it that tells me when certain items are available on craigslist. I had a search saved for "flathead" and the lady that posted her garage sale, included in the ad that "there is an old mercury with a flathead V8 in the pole shed"
That is what triggered the notification on my phone. There was no phone number or pictures, only an address, which happened to be about 10 miles away from where i was at the time.
I headed that direction and she was shocked to see anyone had seen the ad already, as it had only been posted for about 20 minutes. I looked it over for about 10 minutes before buying it on the spot. Honestly I wanted to get the deal done before someone else pulled into the driveway. I did not want to get into a bidding war with someone who had more money than me, which is about everyone in town!
I am very fortunate to have found this car. Her husband wanted so badly to restore it, but they are in thier 70's and simply can not do it.
I promised them a ride when i got it running, and they were very excited about that. They were both very nice people.
I am excited to get it running and check over all of the safety items, other than that It will stay original for now.
As far as price...... I will just say It wasn't $500, but it wasn't $5000 either.
