Any car buffs out there? My dad was a Buick collector for years. He also owned a Sunoco Station right out of school. He passed away some time ago, and my brother and I are working on liquidating his assets for my mom's benefit. There are 2 huge barns + other outbuildings full of cars and car parts. All varieties, but mostly Buick. I've just started listing parts on e-bay, but wanted to spread the word... if you have a collector car of any make and model and need a part (or a whole car), feel free to e-mail me with what you are looking for. Chances are, we have it someplace!

| Ann, if you'll give a link to your eBay seller name, I can check it out and also share with other class car people here We have a '28 Dodge sedan hot rod, but never know what might jump out and say "buy me". We've bought 3 high power sand buggies/rails on eBay. |

| Would you happen to have any Plymouth/Dodge/Chrysler stuff from roughly 1967-1974? We've got two Satellite station wagons and a Duster. Always looking for parts, especially for the wagons which are hard to find. Thanks for posting this! |

I'd say there are some collectors out there! I have a message into my brother regarding the GTO parts and will ask him about the others when he calls. I know for sure that GTO's have flowed thru the barns (parts and cars), will check on the others though. Though I've been around this all of my life, it was my dad's passion, and I'm in the learning phase. My seller name is vintagepartsource. My brother lists things under jansparts. I'll be adding more soon - this was my first week to get started. I'll actually e-mail these requests to my brother (he is a pilot and has free time between flights). When he isn't flying, he is in the barns. Thanks all!

I spoke with Casey. He is actually listing on e-bay under caseyjoe67 rather than the jansparts account. (One acct. for my mom, one for him). He had just finished giving a "barn tour" to some people when he called me. Must be serious collectors, because then they were hopping a plane to "just look" at a big car show in Arizona right after meeting with Casey.
Casey said that he will see what he has for the above mentioned requests. Because "Buick" was the main name in our house, he doubted that he would come across anything for the other makes, but said he would look. There is a GTO - I think he said a '63, but he would see if he had any parts for a '70. I guess my dad had and sold a couple different GTO's not too much before he passed away.

| Collectors are always looking for "barn finds". Guy who bought my son's '70 Dodge Challenger last year was from Sweden and was at the Barret Jackson Auction in Scottsdale AR at the time. Can only imagine what it cost him to have it transported to Los Angeles and then by ship to Sweden. |
