I just noticed the Kelly Chargers.  I had those on mine 12 years ago.  Except I had the RWL inward.  RWL wasn't cool like it is today.

What do you think reserve is $4k? 5K?

Post by: ~AC on January 16, 2008, 07:39:37 PM
LOL low optioned car eh?  if the reserve is more than $3K for a rather low optioned stock cougar, he's lookin for one of those suckers that are born every day.

i just read that he said it was optioned out.. did cougars get less options than birds?  b/c mine is a year older and has 10 or so more options.

IT HAS THE MUSTANG 5.0 V-8 TO HELP SEND PLENTY OF POWER TO THE POSSI REAREND. IT ALSO HAS A FLOWMASTER LER INSTALLED.


Must be one of the Ultra Rare CougarGT versions..no wonder the reserve is so high...

I love how he implies it has the same engine as the mustang 5.0 but it the cougar was limited compared to the mustang so there not the same...

Haha, which one of you guys told him that the car wasn't fully optioned?
Those wheels have been repainted and repainted incorrectly at that. The places that are supposed to be bare aluminum were all sprayed white.

It's a nice looking car but I'll keep mine as it does have all the options and a blue interior over the porno red.

mine isnt velour, the seats in that one is different and i suspect the carpet is less shag, but the trim is identical aside from less options on that car vs mine.  i was ganna say something about it but didnt.  arent those tc seats? j/w

$3,550 still not up to reserve!!
These cars don't usally bring that kind of money do they?
I have not priced one in a while, there aren't any in my area at all.
A few 83-86's a few more mn12's and even less 82 or older or t-birds of any kind.

$4K ended with reserve not met.

This is about where these sell with good options like this one, although a black one similar sold for $5000 in Grand Rapids.
