Now this would be fun. 1949 SUPERIOR

Not sure which upsets me more, reading this in these eBay advertisements or reading "would make a great Ecto"

Or "Top of the line" I see that often too. There is not even enough of the data tag left to see the model, but pretty sure this was not the top of the line built by Superior.
Don't worry, I think the rat rod comment (which I see A LOT), is just as bad as the Ecto comments.

If I am reading the license tag correctly it been off the road since 1955 only used for six years sitting almost 60 years.
I looked at that as well Peter but I think it says 1965.
Also it was mentioned over here that someone thought it was very overpriced and hey thought that $500.00 was more the value.
I like it at $2000.00

rat rod, top of the line, and...
We all hate the old saws used to describe the gems of a by gone time. My pet peeve is what happens to the air cleaners on old cars? Is there an air cleaner fairy that comes and collects them like the tooth fairy does with children's teeth? And why do sellers seem to shy away from interior shots? All sales ads should state the make, model, year and price. Condition is a relative thing. The sellers idea of a little rust and mine seem to never agree.
All comments about rat rod, Ecto, and the like should be left out. Those are opinions and I don't need the sellers opinion. I will have my own once I see the vehicle in person.
My soap box is now closed.

I just can't imagine listing a car for sale without inflated tires!! You immediately eliminate any prospective buyers that would need to have it shipped to them as no trucking company is going to deal with flat, rotten tires and locked up brakes. Also, wouldn't you think he could find a pressure washer somewhere?? Just plain lazy!
