The shipping alone is more than they're worth.

time I was through I wish I had !

That's a fact. The guy should be shipping via USPS media mail.

You can ship via media mail from any post box or home mailbox, usually
for under $2.00 (~$1.60 up to one pound, ~$1.85 up to two pounds). Since
you can buy postage stamps online, you never have to leave your house.

My cellar is full of Car and Driver, AutoWeek, Road and Track, Automobile,
etc., dating back to the 60s. I wouldn't think of parting with them. You can
never tell when you might wanna look up something.

Yeah, I know what you mean - that internet thing Algore invented is probably
some flash-in-the-pan, and when it goes, where would one find out about stuff?

True, but when I want to look at a picture of a souped-up 1961 Corvair (and
yes, they could be souped up), I know right where to go and it ain't on Al
Gore's Internet.

It might not be a '61 but I'm pretty sure it's souped-up.

LOL. Yeah, but it can only go in a straight line. Looks like a 62 or 63. I
had a 61 and a 65, both with after market goodies.

Hmmmm, why a HOOD scoop on a Corvair. Me thinks the engine has migrated.

I noticed that too. My first thought on seeing the picture was,
"Jeezus ... a hopped up rear-engine Corvair?! The front wheels on that
thing will *never* touch the ground". Then I realized that the scoop
was up front.

The problem wasn't the postage: the guy buying them was
responsible for that. It was packing them up and dragging
them to the UPS station (my office, actually) that did me in.
There was apx 175 lbs' worth of the stuff.
