This car was for sale here not too long ago http://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?t=26559
I thought it looked familiar. Someone trying to flip it for a quick profit ehh?
So he bought it for $2500 OR LESS ---- cleaned it up ---- and (as he told me in an email) he now wants $4500 for it.
$2000 detail job. If somebody could do good detail work and do two cars a week, that's be some decent money to put into the bank.
Interesting.
I do not see a vin sticker like we all have / had on the inner part of the fender well along the engine bay shot.
I dont think the paint is original. Dont take me wrong, I love the car, i am just skeptical its all original.
I dont see why at any other time he couldnt get 4500 for it. Now maybe not.
Maybe he bought it for (somewhere near) $2500 ---- having only seen the pics ---- and now that he's gotten it to his home in Arizona, he has discovered that the repairs to the dents are going to cost more than he's willing to pay ---- and so he has decided to sell it ---- or perhaps he just thought that it was a good car to flip.
Either way ---- more power to him.
I'm not trying to be negative ---- nor am I criticizing him for trying to make a dollar ---- but I think that going from $2500 (or less) to $4500 is too extreme.
Just my opinion.
not really,, setting the goal high means he's expecting to be talked down atleast 30%
Nice looking car. I love the stand up hood ordament on the earlier fox cougars. I'm gonna have to have me one some day.
I'm not sure they appeared on the early cars? I think they showed up around 1987.
Anyone have an early car with the vin decal?
The 86 I have as a parts car has those stickers...
Im not sure when they showed up, but I dont remember seeing them on my 85,83 or 81
Somebody put in the opening bid for $3999, I guess it sold?
I didnt see reserve not met.
