I always wonder when the seller doesn't show pics of the interior, chassis and engine compartment.

Well it is rare, rare so that must be why its $4,200 I hate when the seller makes comments on the deal. "Heck for this price you would be crazy not to buy" I will buy you then give me 20k to restore it to a 13K tops car.

It's rare alright, rare in that it is priced about four times higher than any other 47 Hudson sedan in similar shape. Like I said before, the seller should show pics, state condition and shut-up. Who in their right mind would give a hoot about what the seller's perception (or should it be misconception) of value is.

As per usual a seller with zero knowledge of the car and the market he is trying to sell into. Remember a while back the guy selling the Bronze 47 identical to this for $7,500 that was totally complete in great shape and running. This guy wants $4200 for a "rare" car and this isn't rare I see them all the time and in way better shape.

The car is rare. Rare in the fact that it's overpriced. This is a parts car and should be priced as such. I just don't understand why people don't do their homework before listing items on eBay.

Face it, we're not bitchy, just brutally honest. After all, we don't settle for second best and sugar coat crap with unwarranted praise. When it's nice we say so. When it's not...it's a turd.

| The bid on it is pretty good. $255 about right for a parts wagon.

But will the seller realize the "true" value of this wreck?
