Title: You Americans Suck. Especially those of you in Michigan.
Post by: Thunder Chicken on April 09, 2005, 08:05:10 PM
Well, ok, you don't really suck (boy, am I gonna get flamed for this thread title), but the fact that you can get deals like this:

sucks. :raspberry 
 
Just think. $650 buy it now gets you:
 

You NEVER see somebody selling something like that in Canada, especially eastern Canada! If I could think of a way to get that car to Nova Scotia I'd be on it like stink on shiznit!
 
Anyway, that's enough of a rant. You don't suck. Really. :bowdown::america:
'Tis jealousy talking, nothing more.

People around here think the tc's are better than gold. Spotted an 88 tc, auto, fully loaded except leather, original owner, black repaint fadded grey on the trunk and roof, weather checked tires, needed brakes and a turbo (what he said)  wanted "ohh about $3200 or so, its a good car"  :rollin: it will rot to nothing sitting beside his trailer before he gets anything near that! got my 86 tc for $100 with no drivers side and a blown engine, sold $200 worth of parts off it though  ;)

UMMM hate Michigan huh?? Your gonna despise Virginia, all these rust free cars.. Gotta love the auctions, TCs go begging for buyers. $380.00 and I drove it home.... The ABS unit is FUBAR(very hard to stop) and it has 4-5 piddily things wrong, but it is a real decnt car.

You can't find the things around here.  They get tiny little dents & some yo-yo totals them & sends them to the crusher.  Wish it was closer.

I wish I could get a deal like that Tom.... Ive been looking for a car and so far Ive only seen two for sale, I called on them and asked if they were in good condition and they say that there is some surface rust and when I get there the whole bottom of the car is missing! $1200 bucks for the one I saw today!  Michigan sux for fox bodies!

I know you were looking for a Cougar, but that TC is in Grand Rapids, Mi could make a nice swap. :D
