Anyone in ND or SD?

I have a friend that is interested in a car in Gwinner, ND, it's about a nine hour drive one way from here in SE Wisconsin. It's a long ways to see this car. Before driving all the way and finding out the car was sold. The seller won't hold the car, even with a small cash deposit. I was hoping maybe someone here might live nearby. I know North Dakota is big state with a lot of nothing between towns and I wouldn't expect anyone to drive a hundred miles to look at the car but if you're near this town let me know.

Thanks,

I searched through the members list and found about 50 '48-56 truck owners in ND, none of them have posted here in some time. There were two that posted in 2024 sometime and only a few posts. I was hoping to find a regular contributor so I'd know the person. Oh, well, I guess I'm out of luck.

You might have better luck seeking SD help. Looks closer on the map. Stu

Stu, searched the members in SD as you suggested, came up with the same results. Only a couple of member were recently active, January of 2025 and of those they only posted 1 or 2 posts. I was hoping to find an active member, hopefully I've conversed with and would trust enough to take a look at this car. I checked the ad this morning and the car was still being offered. I sent my friend a text to see if he was still interested in persuing the car, he hasn't got back to me. He's a retired guy in good health and has the time to do this kind of stuff, I have to work so I don't have time to waste on an empty chase.

If you’re talking about the 35 Ford, or the Roadster that was posted the gentleman has a YouTube channel. “Mortske Repair”. I believe did a video in depth on each vehicle offered. Pretty straight shooter from what I’ve seen. I believe the ‘35 Ford has been sold by now.
