rough one on ebay

Post by 86capri62 »

Have a look at this one. A sad looking 85. How can someone let a car go to this condition.

Is it REALLY all that bad? I see the need for a roof and 4 new wheels, but I'd bet that the interior is trashed !!

Yes the interior is bad but I've seen worst. The seats need full resto. Also have severe rust problem. Look at the pics link. At least the guy is honnest showing all the rust spot. A lot of money to save this one.

He emailed me a bunch of very detailed pictures. I was going to offer him $1k for it until I saw the pictures, it is all rotted underneath and the interior is a mess, the car is trashed. It's way too far gone for me to consider fixing up.

Shame.

I often wondered if the people who trash these cars were given (and HAD TO KEEP) a new Bentley GT Coupe, if after 5 years or so, it would be trashed as well ~ ~ :roll:

Are you kidding... most people, if given $100,000,000 today, tax free, would be broke in 5-10 years. That being the case, how do you expect them to take care of anything?

This was on Craigslist back in July of '07

Check back to the thread I posted back in July. The car was for sale for $1500. This guy must have purchased it, did a few things to it and now wants to sell it.

The car isn't that far from me. If I had an extra cushion I might offer him something for it and restore it. It really pisses me off to see a car in this bad of shape.

I would like to kick the person in the nuts, the one that did this to the car.

It needs a ton of work, it would keep you busy for a long time.

Post by KAISTANG »

i have the capri on ebay #317
it was in the same shape when i bought it for 1200.00
i put on new front calipers,pads and rotors.
bbk shorty headers, new bbk offroad h-pipe and new flowmaster cat back.
new serpintine belt.
i put in about 7 to 800 dollars into it.
then i ended up picking up a 1990 5.0 lx rust free hatchback.
i needed something i could modify instead of trying to keep a car
all original.
i know the mclaren doesn't have original exaust anymore but the old stuff
fell off or broke off.
it runs and drives but has a bad waterpump.
i need to get rid of it to pay off a personal loan so i can take out a loan for a new cycle.
anyone? 1500.00 takes it. nothing lower. im already losing quite a bit of money on it.
email me at krazy_kaistang@yahoo.com
if interested.
i have 2 1981 mercury capri solid fenders for sale on ebay right now too from a car i parted out about 10 years ago.
