Someone's lost their mind....

Possibly a repost, but this car is like 30 mins from me. This guy has completely lost it though.

Actually, I think whoever would pay that is crazier.
I dig the 80s EQ or whatever that is, in the glove box. Ghetto.

Yea, good luck to him. My original '79 is in far better shape than that one, and I'm sure I couldn't get that kind of money out of mine.

lol, yeah, this guy is pretty crazy. That is not even in GOOD condition, and he wants 13000 for it? Going on that scale, I could sell mine for at least 20,000.

but then again, look who's selling it- "Snappy Actions- drop off your stuff and we'll sell it on ebay" They probably no NOTHING about it. Just read the left side coulmn. It's funny!

that stick on digital clock on the instrument cluster is why the price is so high...........
anyways...... I never knew you could use the word 'pronounced' quite that way....
learn something new everyday...
now I can confidently sell my uber-rare GSL-SE 'rotary rocket' which is pronounced to have more sex appeal than the current Charlie's Angels for around 15 grand
OUTSTANDING.....

Hell, they couldn't even clean it up a bit for that price? There's still trash in the friggin glove box! Even the cheap seat cover is torn up, how do you think the original seat looks? And it received that kind of wear in only 46k miles? Come on........

or perhaps his wife wants him to sell it and he has set the price high in an attempt to show that now one wants it so he can keep it without getting fussed at about it.

Looks like an old ***** with a new dress to me.

Check out the hood color on the underside and the wierd paint around the strut towers. Its been repainted at some point because the left rear quarter doesn't match the rest of the left side. It either took a hit in the left rear or the left front bumber and door tooka bigger hit. Also the left side moulding after the drivers door is missing!

This thing looks like it has 146,000 miles on it, not 46,000. He'd be lucky to get 500 for it!
