For sale by private ownerRelisted..... Due to an insincere, excuse-ful, liar "healeywk"1975 Pontiac Grand Lemans Safari Wagon.ONLY 16,074 miles ACTUAL, DOCUMENTED. Absolutely AS-NEW. Located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Because of it's age (antique status), domestic build, and fact it was last titled in the US, this car is exempt from any import export restrictions. Nothing is involved. Shipping is from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. PLEASE, don't ask me where the car is located. It's in Calgary, Alberta. Please note:Border is only closed for personal travel, NOT CLOSED FOR SHIPMENTS AND DELIVERIES. We have a shipping company lined up, ready to pick up the car, and go!You'll never find a vintage station wagon nicer than this. This is the cream of the crop. Shy of Pebble Beach, this car will win every survivor category judged event entered. Why buy anything less(?)100% untouched original.Back in 1995, a high level executive with the railway was in the NorthEastern States and through colleagues, heard about a mint and untouched original wagon, with next-to-no miles, that was stored away since new. He pursued, found, and bought the car. Here's where things get really carried away... This gentleman refused to let anyone ship the car for him. Instead, he went to the GM dealership and bought a brand new 1995 crew cab dually. From there, he went and bought a brand new enclosed trailer. Evidently, money wasn't much concern. Along with his wife by his side, they made the trip back west to British Columbia Canada. After making it 99% of the way home, they struck a deer. Damage to the truck wasn't catastrophic and they drove home to Kelowna. Once arriving, they parked truck and trailer containing car indoors. That's where everything stayed. Not many years later, the gentleman passed away. Eventually, about 20 years later, collectors heard about a nearly brand new GM crew cab dually with some front end damage stored away. With no knowledge of what the trailer contained, they bought the truck. The car remained in the trailer, in the heated garage, until the couple's son sold the property and moved his mother to be closer with his family in Edmonton Alberta. He hauled the trailer (with car) over the mountains, to the home he'd bought for his mother 2 blocks from his house. The car was parked inside her garage, and remained there. Although there were some people that heard of the car, and approached with offers of purchase, they refused to sell it. We heard of the car from the son. He is senior partner at law firms in both Edmonton and Calgary Alberta. We bought the car as a package deal with another old vehicle from him. Since then, we have done absolutely nothing with the car. We absolutely adore this car but, never use it. It sits covered in a dark garage and remains an absolute pristine showpiece. As remarkable as it was when initially discovered in 1995 at 20 years old, it is even more remarkable now in 2020... 25 years later. For anyone seeking a vintage station wagon, here you go. This car is AS NEW in every regard. There's not a mark anywhere. It is a 100% untouched SHOWROOM original. Only the wheels and tires have been changed BUT, it comes with the original Rallye II wheels and original tires (with probably 95% tread remaining). Don't spend a dime on restoration. Buy this car and begin enjoying now. Win every survivor category award in every judged event. Know you bought the BEST there is. There has been no "clever" dealer type photography, and no touch-ups (nowhere, never). This is exactly how it is. In fact, and ultra-remarkably... this car has NEVER been detailed, shampooed, and purportedly never even ever vacuumed!!! It's never been anything but hand washed. Furthermore, nothing but soap and water have ever touched the outside of this car. No armour all EVER. We were adamantly explained, this car has NEVER BEEN DIRTY. It's never seen anything but the underside of a cover, or limited usage on a warm sun-shining day. You're looking at the REAL THING. There's been time-capsule Corvette's that have been put away as future collectibles, Buick Grand Nationals, Vipers, and such but, this is really rare. When have you heard of a station wagon used as anything but hauling families and furniture and children's sports gear and camping equipment? This one hasn't. There's not a mark on any interior panel... anywhere. No other photographs will be given. What you see is what you get. Nothing hidden. If you are sceptical, check our feedback AND send a 3rd party appraiser if you would like. This is the real deal. No other 16,000 mile wagon like this will come up. The odometer can read 1,600 miles and most would would be hard-pressed to know the difference.... It's THAT NICE. You simply can NOT restore a car to the same standards as a perfect original. Items such as fan switch detents don't feel as crisp as they click, steering wheels lose their embossed grain and feel smooth, vent windows never seal right, and on and on.... Ask around. Increasingly every year, the holy grail in collector cars becomes the RARE untouched low mileage originals. Restored cars are everywhere. Cars like this are truly SOMETHING SPECIAL. ONCE AGAIN, WE WELCOME ANY PROFESSIONAL 3RD PARTY APPRAISALS.EUROPEAN BUYER'S WELCOME!!!ANYONE DOUBTFUL, THAT DOES NOT BELIEVE MILEAGE.... I WELCOME AND WILL HELP ARRANGE A PROFESSIONAL APPRAISAL. IN FACT, I WILL GUARANTEE IF THEY HAVE ANY QUESTION AS TO THE CAR'S CONDITION OR AUTHENTICITY, I WILL PAY. ANY NAYSAYER INTERNET TROLLS ON FORUMS, PLEASE PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THIS.... I WILL GUARANTEE THIS CAR. I WILL ALSO ALLOW A 3RD PARTY INSPECTION IF REQUESTED AFTER SALE, BEFORE PAYMENT. Bill of sale will be completed and title transferred BEFORE payment.Shipping to most US destinations is in the 1,500 dollar range. Further states, such as Florida, can run around 2,250. I suggest budgeting for 2,500 to be on the safe side. Please take this into consideration.Finally... This is a NO-RESERVE auction. I'm determined but have taken a big chance. Please be serious as I am and bid like you want it. Thank you and HAPPY BIDDING !!!AS MENTIONED..... Border is only closed for personal travel. Not closed for shipments or deliveries. Details etc:Review our feedback please. ....Each is for a 40+ year old vehicle! During our relatively short tenure on eBay, we've figured out 2 very important things are communication and procedure. We have a little procedure. Our little procedure focuses on communication. It goes as follows:We're not interested in Paypal or deposits... I don't care for deposits. If you want the car, you know the value of what you're looking at. If you are bidding, please be serious as I am and understand our adherence to this little system/procedure. It's to help both of us. If, for any reason, you cannot adhere to this procedure, please let us know BEFORE BIDDING. OR,....IF YOU HAVE ZERO FEEDBACK OR ARE NEW TO EBAY YOU MUST CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING. Otherwise, I will cancel your bid. DELIVERY:...to most states and destinations is in the $1500+ range. Please keep that in mind. Budget for at least this amount. Texas and Florida, and other far southeastern states, are obviously a bit more at minimum $2250-ish. Any required inspections, certifications, registrations, paperwork, or anything else are the buyer's responsibility. I don't know the rules in each particular state so, am selling as per Alberta rules. My wife has become pretty good at setting up shipping and, is happy to assist. Rest is up to you. Payment is by bank transfer, US account to US account. As stated, I don't ask for Paypal. Once payment is received, everything else is ready to proceed from there. I believe putting this car unreserved will easily make up for any shipping costs. Somebody is likely to get a heck of a deal. CALLS:Even a long-winded description like mine is bound to miss a few details. If you'd like to speak over the phone, I'm happy to hear from you. Please write and we'll make arrangements. If you are from OVERSEAS, please know we have shipped long distances several times. We are happy to assist. Since beginning to narrow down our inadvertent collection a couple years ago, we've sold to England, France, Germany, Holland, Slovenia, as well as the Middle East and New Zealand. If it says anything about what kind of sellers we are... We have sold 6 (six !!) to one gentleman alone in Holland, 2 to another, and 2 to one fellow in England.And, well...... I believe that covers everything. Good luck & HAPPY BIDDING. |
