5. at just 18 years old, its already a collector car 4. AC works very well even without freon! 3. it was built so poorly at the factory that major repairs improve the vehicle 2. salvage title increases value 1. it has the ability to sleep! This one is real special because it has "full suspension" "I can’t tell if there is a leak or just when I open the trunk..." |

Replying to: qbrozen (Jan 09, 2009 6:02 am)  Hmmm...."collector car" insurance on a modern MR2 with a salvage title? I'd love to know the company that wrote THAT policy, and if they did write it, how much they knew about the car's title. The appraisal on the car would also be an amusing read.

Replying to: qbrozen (Jan 09, 2009 6:02 am) Door # 1 is looking for the right buyer because this is a "feeler sale only". Sounds like the kids at the park should be nervous.

This in no way, shape, or form, can be considered a "luxury car". Aside from the vinyl, I think this is the same interior. I wonder if the surfboard has the wreath & crest on it. Last of the andremobiles. A fitting end for malaise-era luxury. Let's complete the trifecta. I forget, was the turbo a portent of doom in these? |

True, the '99 LeSabre isn't a luxury car, but unless I missed it, the seller makes no claim regarding luxury. The Dodge Dart sedan, on the other hand, is clearly not a classic, as the seller claims it is. |

Replying to: bumpy (Jan 10, 2009 5:34 am) As for the rest, you've certainly reminded me of what a sad time the end of the 70's were. I do have to say, though, that I always kind of liked the Nova based Seville.... at least it wasn't FWD and looked (to my eyes) a lot better than the rest of the Caddy family in those days. And on the Dart, I think by 76 they'd stripped out all the things that made a slant six such a great engine.... like most of the bearings. Is it not so, Andre?

Replying to: bumpy (Jan 10, 2009 5:34 am) 79 Seville -- well at least we know that 30 years doesn't make one of these valuable. Maybe 50? Ah, the late 70s. Now you know why wrecking yards don't want to keep these cars for people---no profit in them. |
