Default 409 in Ontario

Ronald,

Just doing a quick google search I found

1967 BRISTOL 409 - US/UK Touring Sedan.

RHD, shabby. 409.

Owned by an older fellow in western Ontario who was initially making noises in the $10-12,000 bracket, has not set a price, but the broker told him it was too high and estimated in the $5,000 to $7,000 range. Various enthusiasts are sniffing around at the $3,000 to $5,000 range which seems a bit low in today's market. Owner has to decide if he sells or gives it to his son. Owner has held it for 20 years. Had it repainted, but bad prep work means its peeling.

Since the broker stumbled across the car, the owner has been diagnosed with a serious illness, so it is uncertain what will happen. Worth making a call and if the numbers seem right, make an offer.

But that was from two minutes on google and ten minutes on the phone. So don't give up hope, there are plenty out there.

Claude
