WHY WE ARE RE-LISTING: What we think eBay bidders should know.

Winning bidder on previous auction backed out of sale citing paint on vehicle would need greater attention than he originally thought. Original auction listing was honest and clear about substantial paint wear, especially on top surfaces of the car. We feel it is very important to portray this vehicle's condition as honestly and accurately as possible. If you have any questions, we will be happy to answer them.This car has sentimental meaning for the sellers and we would like it to go to an appreciative home.
