Gotta Sell Bruce's Cars.

I ALSO AGREE THAT THEY SHOULD GO TO SOMEONE THAT HAS PERSONEL INTREST INTO THEM. AS I AM A 'flipper", i would not want to see that happen to these cars, as bruce was one fine fella.

but no to be rude, but you guys are comming up with some off the wall crap.!
how can you dictate as to what happens with the cars after someone pays for them with their hard earned cash.

i know that the thought that you guys are putting into it, is great, and if waggs wanted his old car back, do not get me wrong, i would be more than willing to donate to a better cause, to see that happen. it is just hard to see someone gonna have to sell the cars under such horrible conditions, yet, people that are in no way involved, try to set rules for the sale of the cars!.

i hope you under stand my point.
also, what happens if waggs or another person of intrest is unable to get them due to funds??????????????


I SAY, AS CLIFF AND STROKERSCAMP WERE ALSO VERY CLOSE TO BRUCE, AND IF EITHER OF THEM WANTED ONE AS A TRIBUTE TO BRUCE, I SAY I WILL DO ALL I CAN FINAICALLY TO HELP THAT HAPPEN, NO MATTER WHAT HAS TO BE DONE! MONEY IS TIGHT, BUT IT IS "FOR THE BETTER CAUSE" SO, .............

I AM SORRY. I TOOK THE FLIPPERS COMMENT TO HEART, AS THAT IS WHAT I AM. AM ONCE I RESPONDED THAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE PICS, THEN IT WAS POSTED THAT FLIPPERS ARE NOT ALLOWED.... WELL, THAT IS THE WAY I TOOK IT, YET I NEVER SAID I WANTED TO BUY ONE, I JUST WANTED TO SEE PICS, AS I HAVE NOT.LOL I HAVE BEEN SELLING OFF ALL I GOT NOW TO FINISH ONE CAR......PINKY!

LET IT HAPPEN. I NW YOU ALL WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM GO TO A HOME ONCE AND FOREVER, BUTIF THE MONEY IS NEEDED BAD, THEY MAY NOT WAIT.

Before you posted any interest in them I posted the following....
"I think it would be nice to have the cars offered to members here on FABO before they are offered any place else. Especially to the members that Bruce was real close to. People here cared about Bruce and he cared about them. Members having Bruce's cars (if they have the money to buy them from you in the tight economy) would be a tribute to Bruce."

Now reread the post again and if you undertand the intent. I think she should try to get market price hence the statement (if they have the money to buy them from you in the tight economy). That right there should stop any flipper unless they cheated her on the price. Obviously since I posted my comment before you posted an interest so I couldn't have been picking on you in any way. I am also a flipper but just on newer cars but I would never buy from a friend or his heirs to make a profit. I would help them find buyers and make sure they didn't get cheated. Recently due to a death of the leader of a group I am in I could have had a 2010 Dodge Quad Cab for less than half of what it was worth because the widow's income wasn't enough to make the payments and she was going to loose it to the loan company. She had a local car dealer come in and offer her pay off and this mid 80s Lincoln Town car that he had been trying to sell for $800 on his lot. I put a stop to that immediately but she needed a quick sell so I got the truck sent to a dealer auction and she sold the truck and pocketed nearly $8K. I walked away with no monitary gain bet I helped a friends widow and that was a great feeling.

As a family here on FABO we need to try to help get Melanie every possible dollar we can for Bruce's cars. We reach out to other members and why should this be different?
