1955 Chevy Bel-Air 2 Door Post Relisted

RELISTED as Buy it Now.
Runs and drive great BUT 2nd gear in transmission has now started to slip. 2nd gear sprag is the issue. I drove the car 40 miles to my trusted transmission shop and that is the diagnosis. $400 to repair/rebuild if I bring them the trans, $1000 for them to R&R it there. I don't have the time or desire right now to spend on it so I'm offering it at $17,000 as is. If you wish to pay $18,000 I will bring it in and have it repaired prior to pick up. I am not negotiable on either of these prices. The car is worth the money all day long.

This is a great driver 55. A super start to build yourself your dream Gasser! I have driven this car approximately 1000 miles this Summer from 2 hour long highway trips at 75 mph, to stop and go city traffic and rush hour traffic in Minneapolis and it never overheats or loses oil pressure. Runs down the road straight and true. All the windows roll up and down with ease, including the wing windows, and the door handles open and close as they should.
The front window does have a crack in it and the horn, heater and wipers don't work and it needs a headliner. The body is in really great shape with a few of the usual spots having mud in them. The trunk pan is in great shape with one patch and the floor pan could use a patch for the driver and passenger foot well area. About what you would expect. I hate to get rid of this car but my garage is too full. No trades please. Bid to win. Winning bidder will own the car!
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:
In the last auction I was asked to cancel one bidders bid with less than 12 hours left because "SOMETHING SUDDENLY CAME UP"... his bid was less than 12 hours old.
Then the winning bidder messaged me 2 days after he won the auction and said "BAD NEWS, I DIDN'T GET APPROVED FOR A LOAN THROUGH MY BANK".
This is not play time for dreamers. Have your s#!t in order before bidding on the auction. Ask your wife, ask your bank, pray to whatever God you wish and make sure you are a REAL & LEGITIMATE bidder BEFORE placing your bid please!!!!
