>>
>> 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.
>>
>> Contact Info:
>>
>> email me at phil@huntonbc.org

>> Or you can call my father at Barton's Auto Service (757) 562-7948
>>
>> In order to put this on Ebay, I had to have something I'm selling - so
>> I have listed a $1.00 buy it now, which is a donation for providing
>> you with this information. NOTE: You are not purchasing any cars,
>> nor obligating your self to buy any cars, with this auction. The
>> auction is only an information donation.
