Re: Think it's worth it?

That carpet certainly needs to be thrown out. The engine compartment has potential with a good detailing.

I don't understand why the sellers don't do these things if they're expecting top dollar.

I see that the leather has been literally worn off the shift **** and the steering wheel leather is twisted, not to mention leaking fluids like a sieve, this guy must be joking. Wonder how the headliner looks

Re: Think it's worth it?

Uhhh...anyone else notice that the build date and VIN have been purposely scratched off the labels on the driver's door? That's usually not a good sign...

Ran the Carfax....there are no records between 1985 and 1998, when it was reported that the car had 107K. There are 5 more records after that which the mileage as over 100K.

$2,500 car at best. $1,000 if it didn't have nice paint.

Re: Think it's worth it?

for my 2 cents worth, I'd pass on it. Way too much for what is there.

Re: Think it's worth it?

price is down about 2k since it was listed the first time (i think this is the 3rd or 4th listing now). The car is kinda rough for the price imo
