I am selling my 73 Biscayne 4 door sedan which has 19,988 original miles on the odometer and no winters in its 48 year life. It's originally from Winnipeg, and like new inside. It's been written up a couple of times in Old Autos for its condition and incredibly low mileage.
Please see my ad on kijiji at the link below for details and price.
Wow that is beautiful John and very fairly priced. Thinking someone will scoop that up quick.
Agree, first one that sees it will buy it.

Thanks for all the positive comments. It is a great car. I'd like to keep it but I have a shortage of storage space and so the four door has to go first.
Howard. I will look into the Facebook group you mentioned.
Somebody should buy this and keep it in Canada! You just don't see survivors in this shape much anymore, especially the low-line models.
Here is the text and pics from John's ad, if he doesn't mind (John, I'll delete it if you don't want it in this thread - just let me know).
For Sale: 1973 Chevrolet Biscayne 4 door sedan. This car is near mint. It has 19,988 original miles. It has never been winter driven. The interior is as new. The car was purchased new in Winnipeg, and gradually made its way from there to Newfoundland via Ontario. Over the years it has been written up at least twice in the Old Autos newspaper both before and since I got the car. The car is equipped with a 350 V8 engine, automatic transmission, PS, PB, radio, optional chrome trim, tinted windshield, and full wheel covers. It is 99.5% rust free, with no rust in the floors, trunk, frame, or body panels. The tires are new with no miles on them. This car is as close to new as you can get in an unrestored 48-year-old car and needs only a few cosmetic details to be as good outside as it is inside. Because of its superior condition I am looking for $9,800.00 for this plain jane but excellent car from another era. Serious inquiries only please. Call, e-mail, or message me to view. Thanks.
Good for you John. Not a surprise that this would get scooped up especially I'm sure once someone takes a look at it. Thanks to you for being a good caretaker of it.
Thanks for the support here. I just sold the car locally.
Good stuff! You still might see it on the road.

I didn't really want to sell it but you can't always keep everything. I either need more space or fewer cars and for now it will have to be fewer cars.
Someone will have a great car, no question about that.
