Their last board activity was on the day they have posted this, so they probably do not use e-mail conformation for replies and PM's.

 

Not that far from me, would really like to see lots of pictures.

 

Hello, sorry for not replying. I only get notified by email when someone private messages me. I'm not sure how to change it so that I get emails when replies are posted.

I have lowered the price to $7,800.00.

And just by the way, the car picture in my avatar is the 68 Buick that I am selling if that helps give a first look!
