[Fordnutz]

2 words, buyer beware. Doesn't have a stellar reputation.

[Kustomshoebox]

oh realy? I'll PM you ....

[dale48mrc]

$2500 for a beat-up 47 Merc 4door sedan!!!Man my 48 2door must be worth alot more, it's in better shape!!!!

[Kustomshoebox]

LOL DALE.... I kinda thought I should Jack up the price of mine when I seen the prices of his stuff... he's trying to buy my car off of me to sell to a guy overseas.. or buy it for him or whatever his deal... but I kinda felt like telling him $15,000 cause mine runs and drives... see his '32 for $7000???

[dale48mrc]

Yea, what gets me is I paid $2500 for my 48 Merc 4 years ago!!!!I think this guy thinks that he can charge an arm and a leg for what looks to be very questionable tin.What gets me is the higher priced cars don't have pictures,what's up with that?

[Kustomshoebox]

yeah no doubt...take a look at his 49-51 fords and meteors..... he says they are in great shape, but is mad that his buyer doesnt want one of his two doors. and wants a 4 which he doesnt have

Hey Tinmann
Is this our buddie Gordie Vincent?
I had dealings with him,15 yrs ago.
He is a little different alright

And he certainly doesn't know what a '53 Studebaker looks like.
Advertising this '56 as a '53.

Yeah Gordie Vincent... thats him... and a wierdo for sure... how much faith should I have in him wanting to buy my car guys??

[Davey_Joe]

the man is a legend!! i heard about him a lot when a manitoba potato farmer relocated to our district an' started playin' cars out here..... we'd sit around the fire an' hear about folks gittin' er' with lefthand thread!!..........

[30sx]

i bought 2 fenders and a door from him years ago for my essex,no problems, maybe he is off his medication or something now!

[tinmann]

I knew Geordie for years when I lived in stubble country. I bought my '32 5w from him.... but I knew that you had to have one hand on your money and the other on the car.... with all of its agreed upon pieces..... before you let go of the money...... oh and it's wise to have your truck and trailer pointed toward the highway with the engine running too, before you release your grip on the money. Weird?? Oh yeah..... but decades of heavy drug use will do that to any draft dodging american.

I tired to buy a 37 chevy coupe off him over the Net,Everytime the price was different and the description was different...Then he would send me pics of 4 totally different cars that were supposed to be the same one I was buying LOL...Needless to say I never bought it because I am in Ontario and he was gonna have it shipped for me.....I didnt trust the guy....

[Kustomshoebox]

Yeah his deal fell through... guy in Germany didnt have the money in the end to afford the car AND ship it

[wayne]

my 47 merc.makes his junk or parts car.I would hope buyers are looking before buying at that price

Geordie is an interesting character. Prices on his stuff depends on his mood at the time you're talking to him. I live in the same town, in fact, I rent some space in the quonset you can see in some of his pics. I went through his yard in the spring and shot almost 140 pics. I built a website for him with them. It's not complete, but it gives a good look at the stuff there.

Looks like most of his stuff is sitting pretty close to the damp ground. His prices are kinda high in my oppinion. There were a few that would be worth looking into though for sure. If the guy ain't as bad as some said he is.

Good pics and website.

[Boyd Who]

Thanks!
Yes, everything he has is pretty much sitting on the ground. His posted prices are very high, but I think he does that to weed out the tire-kickers. If you show up with a trailer and cash he can be haggled with.
