[DML] Re: Best way to sell?

["cbl1739" <cbl302@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Louie,

Of course the quickest and easiest is thru Ebay,but DO NOT expect to 
get top bucks there.(I have sold cars on ebay without any problems 
and,including a Bricklin,motorcycles,and trucks,and also bought 
vehicles thru Ebay )The cheapest is if you live in a home with high 
traffic driving by,I have sold quite a few cars in that matter of all 
vintage from classics to common.The other route is thru "Cruise 
nights",but that is a summer thing.(you get to have your cake and eat 
it too!!)Another way is thru your work(if they have a employee paper)
Then there is Hemmings,or all the Different Delorean web sites,POST 
on all of them!! You never know.Put for sale signs on it where you 
park it at work.keep it spotless,I sold my Showcar Delorean on the 
spot (and got his burnt "D")because I kept it cleaner than showroom 
new(and he was so impressed when we first met,and saw I drove the "D" 
shoeless(shoes in the trunk) and clean towels on the seats,and a car 
cover in the trunk,to cover it whenever I parked(even short term 
parking).He Bought it on the spot, for 16,500 minus 3500. for his  
burnt Delorean,in effect I got his for free since I paid 13K at the 
time(1986) for my Delorean.Treat it like gold,and you just might get 
rewarded for it.
