This is a salvage vehicle and is being sold for parts only. It is not operational or street legal. Therefore, upon purchase, it will need to be either towed or put on a trailer. This item is NOT eligible for the eBay Motors Vehicle Purchase Protection Program.
This is a Fixed Price format listing -
With the Fixed Price format:
  • Buyers can purchase your item immediately at the price you set
  • You can also accept Best Offers from buyers
  • There is no bidding.
  • Offers below a reasonable amount are declined automatically with no notice to seller.

Listings may also be set to approval for buying/offering to prevent scammers from ending listings prematurely.  You must email prior to trying to buy a vehicle.  It should be noted that the lines denoting a salvage vehicle are added by eBay and that what a buyer chooses to do with a vehicle once they own it is entirely their business.

1948 Pontiac Eight:

Complete car in need of restoration.  Has some rust issues.  Sutiable for rat rod, hot rod, custom, restore, parts whatever you like, lots of potential if you're not afraid of actually working on a car, whiners need not apply. 

WE ARE NOT A SALVAGE YARD - WE DO NOT PART OUT CARS

Terms of sale: All cars are sold AS-IS. These are old cars and many have rust issues, they can have problems which are not apparent without a more detailed inspection and as such we may not be aware of the issues. Any prospective buyer is welcomed to make an appointment to come inspect a car in person prior to buying. Nonrefundable deposit of 10% or $500 whichever is greater due within 7 days. Must be paid in full or arrangements made within 14 days. 30 days storage is included to give you plenty of time to arrange to get the vehicle. We're flexible with weather concerns particularly in the winter; storage on paid cars can be arranged in advance for $50 per month, but if a buyer can't be contacted or is unable to make suitable arrangements, $10 per day storage fees will be applied against the amount that's been paid on the car. We're not unreasonable, but this is a business, not a free for all.

How to pay: eBay in their infinite (lack of) wisdom has chosen to make Paypal, in person payment, and other credit processing the only acceptable payments on most items.  Although regular vehicle listings are exempt, they forgot to exempt this category.  So be aware that to use Paypal to pay for this item, it will need to be taken apart into pieces small enough they can be shipped via FedEx or UPS.  I can't imagine what the expense of that would be, given some parts would have to literally be destroyed to be small enough for them to accept and ship, and it would require easily hundreds of packages.  Any questions, just let me know.

eBay forces me to include this redundant and confusing statement in this listing - their words, not mine: “This vehicle is being sold for parts only and is not operational or street legal. Therefore, upon purchase, it will need to be either towed or trailered. eBay encourages its members to learn about their state laws governing vehicle sales prior to the sale or purchase of a vehicle.”
