This passes for $2,200 by me..........

This TC is located 20 minutes south of me. I can't believe this guy want's $2,200 for it. I'd give him maybe, maybe $200 for it. Now you guys know what Illinois salt can do to these cars and why I put mine away in the winter.

And the reason I NEVER buy from a car lot...

Luckily I do have a buddy "in the business", so if I want something at a auction, I generally have him pick it up and pay him a little something to transfer the title...

To give you guys a idea what I'll pay, I turned down a fairly nice 102K mi '96 Cougar with a 4.6... Price $1500... Friggin' thing was mint green with dark green interior  :yuck:  (otherwise I'd probably bought it)...

Back in '97 I paid $1215 for my white TC, and my buddy made $200 on it...

[COLOR="Red"]- 139,000??? 
The odomenter pic clearly shows 143,962.
Or was that before you rolled it back from 343,962?

"Super" Coupe???
It says "Turbo Coupe" right on the doors and trunk!

- We detect no paint work.
Don't you mean "we detect there's no paint left"?

- Engine:  6 
Turbo Coupes have 4 cylinders.

The red seat pic is from a different car, looks
like maybe a Taurus? (Some kind of 4-door)

Yes...and what the owner will let it go for. Now that becomes what anything is worth.

car shows blue interior in one pic, and red seat in another.  Also, if that's a used car lot, I wonder how much live-bait you get with a vehicle purchase?

It's from a Mercury Sable wagon, one of their "other items".
You can see what is apparently their version of a "hard-working professional sales team"  :rollin:  in the bottom right pic.

HAHAhahaha!

There likely never will be, either. I can't see this every being more than a parts car.

You would think they would at least clean and detail it before posting it... or would that be counted as " polishing the turd? "
