Not mine

This is a 1959 Singer Gazelle. The car dose run, it has a inline 4 cylinder and a manual transmission the carburetor probably needs to be rebuilt and the brakes need some work also. I also have a parts car if interested. Please e mail with any questions. Trades may be considered, interested in any thing old, Chevys Volkswagens motorcycles rat rods.

Of course, when I hear Gazelle, I think of this:

Again with the it's in ATLANTA find. Not that I'm complaining. It looks like a miniature DeSoto/Buick, especially from the rear.

What is with Atlanta and all the good freakin cars down there for like, a dollar? While I'm glad I don't live in that area for the very reason that I would be divorced, homeless, and living out of a string of non-driveable oddities, I wish MN would get thrown a bone or two once in a while.

In reply to mndsm: No snow or salt, me thinks. Just drive the whatever behind the shed/to the backyard/in the barn and forget about it.

wtf is up with Atlanta? There are always so many odd/neat cars on CL there.

I'm in San Antonio and between SA and Austin combined I don't see 1/5 the cool stuff that is in Atlanta.

It's the same body shell as a Hillman Minx,and probably a Sunbeam Rapier,and a couple of more brands. GM didn't invent "Badge Engineering" !!
