It only has one body panel caved in and a berk-load of rust!

That trunk is big enough to get a dozen, maybe a dozen and a half dead hookers in though.

It's certainly a bit high, but not crackhead territory.

Between the prices of muscle era MoPar coupes going sky high, C body demand in Europe, and derbiers smashing all the available Y frame MoPars, this has become a desirable automobile in several camps.  If the interior was just a bit moe complete, it would pull over a grand by itself.

Around here that car would be long gone at that price.

My business partner sold his for $18k. It had good paint and the interior was in very good condition though. I would think $2500 is a good starting price for that one.

That’s because it’s considered rust free up there! I wonder when the yankee brought that home to FL with him?

Yea, I was thinking 2500 wasn’t a bad asking price, to somebody into that car. I like ‘em, but not enough to compete with the guys that LIKE them!

I almost bought one of those in 1995 for about that same price. It's body was in better shape but was in primer, it was missing most of the interior besides the buckets and console, and I think it was a small block. Given inflation over 25 years I have to agree with the rest of the gang. Not a great price but not crack pipe territory.

Yeah, not in any way crackhead price.  Big block, console, high-options, and rusty but saveable.  I'm thinking that's (sadly) about what the market is asking.

Kinda wish I'd grown up in a Ford or GM household, I could actually afford to own and work on more muscle-era stuff.

The ad certainly wasn't written in crackhead.  It made total sense.

$2500 seems alright..  You could part that and make some $$$$

I may be over explaining here, and if so just ignore me!

The "crack pipe price" is in reverence to a different forum, that does "nice price or crack pipe price" articles. As in "he must be smoking crack to think its worth that!" Car ads WRITTEN by crackheads is a whole 'nother can-o-worms!!!!
