Close to home, but if that's what the rust on the 1/4's looks like just imagine the doors.

That looks exactly like my first 'Bird except it's got more options and the tan interior (mine was grey). Memories...

Well it's close to me so I'll be checking it out. I have a feeling it's rougher then it looks tho'.  He says rust on the bottom of the doors, something wrong with the radiator supports? Trunk leaks...oh yea, the window doesn't work..etc etc. Check engine light.....is on..door pull tabs are missing :)

Just saw this update in the ad:

(Ironic.. I just posted a question in the body section on how to repair lower radiator supports!!!!)

 UPDATE!!!!

Rust on back quarter panels, a few light bulbs in rear, right rear brake cable, sway bar links and the biggie...radiator support bracket. This one is major because they seem to think it is either part of the frame. Even if it's not, a new piece of steel will need to be welded to the frame.

Check engine light.....is on..

That's the "Service" light, meaning it needs an oil change (actually, unless it's reset every oil change it means nothing). It does not indicate a  problem with the car. 15 years ago I let a cherry '85 or '86 Cougar go because I didn't know what that light meant and thought it was a problem...

Ahhh.. I meant ....it needs an oil change! ;)  right!  Thanks for the info.  I'm still driving an old '83 and don't know much about those new fangled things on the 85's! :grinno:

So...is there a check engine light too?  How does the Service light get reset?

Thanks,
