I've been going blind in one eye for decades,ow. That caused no
problem when I was driving small cars, but the lack of depth
perception caught up with me, finally. I was leaving a poorly-designed
parking garage and managed to mess up the right side of my Commander
(six w/ 3spd OD) at the B pillar. Obviously, the doors in the area
need work, too.
The reason for writing this is that I can't work on my car here, due
to small space in garage and need to be quiet. Just brakes,
alternator, water pump and other simple "from the top" stuff. I need a
small car to use as a daily driver - the Commander has been both my
hobby car and DD for years now.
This one seems to be an original black-plate California car and it
wouldn't be right to just let anybody have it.
I may be the second "real owner, as it seems to have been owned for
years by farming brothers in the Sacramento area and I bought it at
the IM there in 2003 from the Karel Staple Chapter.
I've never driven it far, so won't swear that it will take you cross-
country to Boston.
The interior is fair, but someone owning a rusty car like this can
have a good bodied running car into which to put his pristine
interior, so will toss out the figure of $1500. If you can supply a
good Corolla, Civic or such, hat can be part (or full?)
payment...Karl 619-466-1529 >> Stay informed about: '64 commnder for sale by one-eyed owner |

sorry to hear about this Karl, and too bad you're all the way across the
country... I'd be tempted but the shipping would double the cost for me.
