> Here Our Story: My grandfather bought a couple 404s (One to drive and
> one for parts), and then my father bought one so they could help each
> other out with parts and repairs. My father then acquired another one
> for parts. When my grandfather died, my father ended up with his two.
> As he got a reputation for being a "Peugeot man" people began
> contacting him when they decided to get rid of theirs.
> Long-story-short, he now has a warehouse with about 17 Peugeot 404s
> ranging from 1960-69 (Note: parts are interchangeable on all these
> years - that's one of the neat things about Peugeot). The picture
> above is one of my grandfather's models that I restored 6 years ago
> and still drive (This makes number 18). I will be selling mine too.
> I also installed a custom 7 speaker sound system in this model (CD
> player, tweeters, 6 1/2, 6x9, 12 inch MTX sub in built in box with
> amp.) It is starting to show some rust bubbling in places, but its
> base coat clear coat so repairs can be done easily.

> I will admit, we have some sentimental attachment to the cars.
> However, realistically, my father is getting some age on him. I will
> never be able to store these cars the way he did, and without his
> parts, I will have to stop driving mine. We are just now thinking
> about getting rid of the cars, but we don't want to sell them to just
> anyone. We are looking for a hard-core Peugeot enthusiast. There is
> enough potential in these cars and parts to last someone a lifetime,
> or more (Consider, they are already on their 3rd generation with me).
> What we would really like is to find someone who would be eager to
> buy the entire lot, including mine pictured. We are not trying to get
> rich off of them, but we do expect a fair price. If you are trying to
> get something for nothing, please don't waste our time; but if you are
> truly excited about this rare opportunity, please contact us. I am
> certain that my father has the larges collection of Peugeot's in this
> country. Many of the cars will require very little to get them going.
> Some of the cars are only good for junk parts. We also have some
> parts that we have taken off of vehicles before we sent them to the
> junk yard. A couple of the Peugeots are station-wagons. One Peugeot
> is a Rare Custom Truck. They never sold a Puegeot truck in this
> country. However, my father took a wrecked Datsun pickup and cut a
> Peugeot in half and made a Peugeot truck. It actually looks a lot
> like the factory jobs, and it was inspected by a police officer and
> titled as a Peugeot Truck. My father still drives this truck every
> day. The rest are 4-door sedans with sunroof. All have 4 cylinder
> engines (20-30 miles to the gallon). We have both automatic and stick
> shift models. Manuals have a 4 speed transmission on the column.
>
> It is impossible for us to negotiate price until you really know what
> all we have. Contact us and we will arrange time when you can come
> visit my fathers warehouse. He lives in Sedley, VA 23878. My car is
> in Richmond and I drive it regularly.
