Ramblers For Sale

Though it costs us time & money, we offer the classified and web advertising as free services to those who are current with their club dues.  Advertising for non-members is possible for a slight fee.  These are the non-member options:

1) The first option is to run the car in our monthly classifieds.  These get mailed (hard-copy) to our members.
     You may send photos to me, and I will scan them and pass them on to any member who is interested. 
     Ads run for 3 months, and you may renew for 3 month intervals for no extra charge.  The fee is only $10.

2) The second option is the first option PLUS, for another $10 we will run the car on the website for the
     same 3 months.

Of course, the third option is for you to join our club and we can help you enjoy the car.  That's my favorite.
