Sure looks like it's missing, but I checked the auction page pics and the window is there.

Last chance!

1973 MGB $3500
Over $12,000 tied up in this car.


If only I had another day...


Another day?? You dying on us there big shoots??

That actually looks like a decent B for the $. If it were within a few hours of me I'd grab that. Not worth the transit from MB though.

And with you here...what better car to buy seeing as there's someone with plenty of knowledge on the intricacies and issues these little FBC's might have!   ;D  And such things as where to get new dash pads etc. 

Too bad my wife hates Miata's...but this would be kinda fun...just slap a 302 in it...right? An LS would probably fit...or an old Taurus SHO V8...or leave it 4 cyl so there is more than one more day...


Oh - and that Dart (from Bubs), that's perfect.  The pics are flatteringly taken.

It's crazy how well these ISF's maintain their value.  I wonder if the GSF will be the same in 10 years time.

I'm not much of a Lexus fan but I have a lot of respect for the GS F simply because it's the last naturally aspirated sport sedan on the market.

Given the change in cars I would think that a lot of these "last hurrah" V8 cars will be collectible in the future. I would assume there won't even be a naturally aspirated engine on the market in 10 years let alone a V8.

From what we read from the manufacturers, in 10 years ICE should be as scarce in Europe as manual transmissions are in NA right now.

Late season convertibles...
A favourite...1968 Pontiac Firebird asking $17,400
https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/winnipeg/1968-pontiac-firebird-convertible/1523582846
It's even a cool 60's green...but damn does it need some love!  Probably cost another $20+ (??) to make it right.


I like a lot about this car...until you get to the inside, or that it's not an '89 (no tilt wheel after '89 - so school bus only - yuck)
1990 5.0 LX - 13,000 original miles for $17 bills.
https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/winnipeg/1990-13-000-mile-usa-car-just-safetied/1523413427


It's not a Firebird, but it's still pretty cool, and I'd bet it needs nothing in comparison.
1968 Fairlane for $15,900
https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/portage-la-prairie/1968-ford-fairlane-convertible/1523628003


It has almost the same interior as that Mustang...but for whatever reason, it looks better.

And one for the F-body types.  Not a rag, but just 'cause it looks good.  It does have t-tops though, that counts, right?
1990 IROC Zed for $17g
https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/winnipeg/1990-camaro-iroc-z-t-top/1523251210


That actually looks pretty good.

Buddy i work with is selling his old Elantra GT. similar to this.  His is the top model with leather heated seats, in top shape too, no rust maybe 160K.  2 sets of tires and only around 160K.  wonder if i should by it for probably around $2K  and sell the lexus.

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/calgary/cool-deal-2006-elantra-gt/1521091381?undefined

I liked the looks of that generation Elantra.  I recall getting 28 mpg at 75 mph when I rented one for a Fargo trip.  Nice to drive around town.

Those GTs were fairly nice for their time. Dunno if I'd want to drive one these days though.

My sister had one, and really liked it.  These Elantras, which were introduced in 2001, were styled after the facelifted Euro-Corolla that hit the market in 2000...

I'd rather be car-poor than house-poor...

Normally, I'd turn my nose up at the colour, but geez, it just suits that car so well.

Some designs are simply timeless -- this is one of them.

It's amazing how BMW has had such incredible highs for styling (this, 507, etc.), and such cruel lows (Bangle era, current era..  ;)  )
