Nice looking but not perfect 72 eldo convertible for sale in lincoln,ne. Craigslist.  Not a good cut and paste guy. Pretty tempted to just go and look. But all ready have a 69 electra vert.  Good deal or not?

That's a winner.  Subject to inspection and a love for really large cars.  I would want to make sure the convertible top is in good condition and operates smoothly but you already own a period convertible. Price is right and I seldom say that. I am a low ball buyer.   But this is one of those great in between cars.  Nice interior, nice straight body with no rust.

I would offer $5500 and see if he bites.  Then you can enjoy it for years and sell it for $5000 to $6500.  Nice colors.  Just my opinion, but it seems priced right.

If I was in the market for another '72 Eldo Convertible, I would be seriously looking at that one.

The rust in the floor could be from a lot of things, and if it has been properly fixed, and the reason for the water getting there in the first place, it shouldn't be a worry.

If I was in the market, I wouldn't hesitate in flying from down here to have a good look.   Plus, have a vacation at the same time.
