4500 bucks for a 83 v6 with 225,000 on it?

I hope the car in the pictures and the description is not the one for sale.

Yep. It definitely has four wires running to one side of the motor, and I can't really tell, but I would have to say it has four running to the other side. This seems like a shady deal...

I have a 1983 Ford Thunderbird runs well, automatic, 302 cu in 5L V-8 engine, very powerful! Recent work done including new starter, new front brake pads, and extensive engine work. Does have minor interior and exterior damage, but everything but the driver-side window works as it should. Is used almost daily around town. Clean title, registration not due until Summer, easy to insure. Asking 750 o.b.o. or willing to trade for small good running four door car. For more information email me or call my boyfriend at 559-736-4375. Second picture is an older under the hood shot, because of recent engine work, its not that clean anymore.

In case the ad goes down, it's the exact same photos.

People are so stupid sometimes.  How long would it have taken to go to KBB.com and see how much the car should be worth.  Granted, sometimes a car is worth more, but its always because of some special limited edition, previous owner, or heritage. 

Sorry, but Ebay-Fail!

Edit: I forgot KBB doesn't go back that far anymore, but even if you look up 90 tbird its worth at most $1k.  And from the description, that car is less than perfect.
My car is a gravity hybrid.  The gasoline engine gets me up the hills, and gravity gets me down.

thats what gets me about it. I can almost understand those guys who want that much for pristine 1 owner cars, but not this one.

Well, due to the death of someone I didn't even know I was related to, I am expecting a $10,000 check from Nigeria any day now. I would be willing to turn the check over to them and they could keep the extra. That car would totally be worth it.
