Now here is a rare Jet coupe that looks in nice shape and BIN is $4500 for a complete running car with new interior and good paint. (Take note other Jet seller) This will be snapped up at that price.

At least the price is reasonable. Is that an original color?

Yes the colour is original. I would look it up but I am lazy today.

| That is a good looking little buggy, if you are into Jets. I'd drive that as an everyday car. It looks like a good deal, even at the BIN price.

The price on this rare Jet coupe with the condition its in should clue in that other Jet seller. Coupes are 10x more desirable than the Jet Sedan. Its complete in great condition and ready to drive. I would also use this as a daily driver. Be hard pressed to beat the fun factor and economy.

| alignment problem with that right door to fender... I don't know what's going on with this one, but for 4K, I don't think you could go wrong, regardless of what you find. even if you had some mechanical and rust issues, still 4K for a 2 door jet is good.

Didn't the seller say something was wrong with the brakes?

| Looks as if there may be a little bondo in it, especially on the passenger side... fender bottom problem too, but minor stuff. Might be a nice little driver, if I was closer..... Nah... I'll find my Commodore eventually.

If I had nothing better to do, I'd buy something like this and convert it into a mini stepdown look alike. First thing to go would be the humpty dumpy roofline.

Did not sell and I wonder why. Has some problems but its all there and selling at good price. I guess cars are not selling right now, especially Hudsons which is good news for me as 2008 is bringing Hudsons home to Papa for me.

"Certain" cars aren't selling. The desireable models in top shape are still commanding a good price.
