Today I met a wonderful, gracious widowed lady who is trying to sell a number of possessions. I met her when my wife was buying some weathered lumber from her, for a craft project. Among them is a 1958 DeSoto Fireflite. I only looked at the car from a distance. But the body looks to be in very good shape. No body damage, and I didn't see any rust. All four tires are flat to the ground and it looks like the car hasn't moved for many years.
I found myself wanting to do whatever I can to help this lady sell her car so she can get a fair price for it, and at the same time, provide someone else the opportunity to have a great restoration project. I am looking for advice on what the best method would be for her to find a good buyer. She lives in a small farming town here in Northern Utah, so I don't think trying to sell it local would give her anywhere what she deserves for it.
Is there a online website that specializes in selling project cars of this type? Or is there some other way that any of you may recommend?
If I can find a good way for her to sell her car, I'd even be willing to help her take pictures and post them so her car can be presented as well as it deserves. Any suggestions will be appreicated.
