1968 Checker Marathon, Sat In Dry Storage For 28 Year’s, RUNS AWESOMELY! $4,500!I bought 21 month’s ago along with light blue one shown with it in pics(sold light blue one and one in primer, this one was my fave out of the 3).Anyways, I bought from a 90 year old Checker collector who had built a nice storage place just for his 3 Checker’s, these 2 shown here and he had a restored one that was a taxi and he donated it to a Checker museum.This 68 was the only one he ever really drove tho he told me.It even has a gas receipt in glovebox from the last x he had fueled it up which was 1990.And then it was driven into DRY storage for 28 year’s!It was/is my fave because it has a V8/auto(65 has a 6/man trans).And no kidding, I had it started and purring 21 months ago 15 minutes after it got to me.I drove it around some(it’s unbelievable its brakes r still up/working) and then its fuel pump went out and I parked it and I never touched it again.Well, today I had a mobil mechanic who does some work for me come over to work on my Range Rover and I had him try to put on new fuel pump I bought for it but it was wrong so tomorrow he’s grabbing a correct pump for it, throwing it on and AGAIN it will be a driving car(I actually poured a little gas into it tonight and it fired rt up the second I hit the key, very impressive)!Believe it or not my wife doesn’t want me to sell it(we both think it’s cool but she wants me to paint it PINK, her most fave color but I don’t know about that?).It had typical type rust on mostly rockers and some typical floor boards/trunk floor rust but is ALL fixable/patchable meaning no panels hv to be changed(body rot/rust can easily be metaled in and floods can be easily patched, floors r strong under seats where it counts).Where else can u find any DECENT Classic Car these days that literally purrs like a kitten/drives for a measly $4,500?!Buy with confidence here, it’s a no brainer DEAL!I’m located in Houston Texas(West Side), CASH in person or a bank wire transfer if you r far away(after a non refundable $500 PayPal deposit).Also, call 713.680.9400 if u want to buy but need help with shipping.Thanks |
