Eliminators on the Market (May 2022)

LOTS of Eliminators changed hands this month! Also had a few '70 Eliminator projects came up for sale, but still tight on '70 availability. The Eliminator market is pretty warm right now. If you find one that appeals to you then jump on it, cuz chances are good that it appeals to someone else too!

BEWARE OF SCAM LISTINGS OF ELIMINATORS FOR SALE!
Scammers are using pictures from legitimate listings (old and current) and passing them off as their car that is for sale, at prices well below market value. Always verify the car is real and the VIN is legitimate by checking with the CCOA or Eliminator Registry.
Also be sure to order your own Marti Report. Scammers have been doctoring Marti’s and changing VINs. Marti will not charge you for an invalid VIN.
Never send a deposit without confirming there is actually a real Eliminator associated with the listing.
And as always, remember that if it is too good to be true then it is probably a scam.

Someone needs to snag this and get it back on the road. The previous owner tore it down and painted it, but then pushed it into the barn for 15 years.
He sold it in June 2020. The current owner is selling it in favor of other projects.

Surprised the competition blue car is still for sale. I wonder how the torque boxes and underside are on it. The quarters need work, but a lot of the other sheetmetal looks like it might be solid.

Does anyone have any additional info on the car in Canada or the one in Illinois? If you are going to put in a different engine, a 429SCJ isn’t a bad option.
