Re: My old Toronado is up for sale again, buy the new owner

Yeah, so the sellers think. It seems the buyers don't agree, in some ways. The Toros that have been fully restored OR are low mileage garage kept originals ARE bringing more money, but not those that Need restored. My old '67 Toro that just failed to sell is such an example, sad to say. The current ...

He has them listed on EBay for a starting bid of $8,000 with Reserve not met. Here's a lin...

The '67 I couldn't afford to restore...

I just learned that the man I sold Regan to IS footing the bill to have her professionally restored! He's agree to send me some pictures. I'll post them asap. This is a mixed thing for me. How I wish I could have afforded to have her restored myself, but reality is what it is. Isn't it strange how s...

1967 Bolt pattern?

I need some professional advice, to be sure of something before I make an offer for a set of wheels from a '67Toronado I used to own. I'm sure some of you remember the '67 Toronado that I could not afford to restore and had to let go. it had a set of Boyd Coddington wheels that I *believe* were &quo...

I wish I knew why this beaty hasn't sold long ago

IMO, this is a terrific deal, but I've seen it listed on eBay multiple times. I just don't understand why it isn't selling at such a good price.

Re: Another beautiful 1966 Toro, fully restored, on eBay

Yeah, Jim (Chaser) I know exactly what you mean about the Vinyl top. That was one of THE worst nightmares my '67 encountered, and a major reason I took a 50% loss when I sold it. The one I'm having inspected now is such low mileage I'm afraid to tell anyone else much about it. I truly LOVE the 1967 ...
