Title: 77-78 CW needs a rescue
Post by: 75bobcatv6 on August 16, 2008, 04:37:59 PM
ok here is a 77 or 78 CW that Desparately needs a rescue, Its sitting on a Farm in Montana. MY landlord brought this to my Attention( he and i are good Friends) Anyways he is trying to get me more information on the car but i thought someone here might know something of the car, Who owns it and what the might ask for it. I can get my Landlord to pick the car up on his next trip through Montana if someone can get me information on the car and I will sell it to someone on the Board here I wouldnt be able to restore it with already doing a restore on my bobcat. anyways please list any information you have on the owner or if you happen to be the owner what do you want for it ? (never know the person who owns it might be a member) this car was spotted less then a month ago

To be honest if i could get and keep the car i would, My mom had this wagon, we paid like 125 dollars for it back in 88 my dad rebuilt the interior and what not, my mom used the car to tote us kids around in, as well as Deliver pizza's for Domino's. she traded it in back in 2002 for a 2000 ford ranger pickup because she couldn't afford to keep repairing the car. Its some where in Town just not sure where.

How much are they asking for that CW?

I live in Idaho and I have a an aunt and uncle who live in Montana....

I might be able to get out there and snag it before the end of the year, as I have one more week of paid vacation and I could use it to get out there.
