3 Fox T-Birds on ebay

'82 Town Landau, '86 with full digital, auto lamps/dimming, power antenna & keypad (not sure if it's a base or an elan), and an '88 Sport.

I take that back, an Elan would have wood-grain dash bezels.

That 88 is Grandma fresh..... With I had $6k for a nice driver. Always wanted to put a super coupe motor in one of these base cars and kick some butt.

Is that 86 original color????

That 88 white one, seems especially rusty underneath on  the brackets and such.  Wondering if it set outside on bare ground or something???  Otherwise a very clean looking car.

-ugh. If I was gonna invest 6k in to one, it would have to be as pristine underneath as it is on top. DSO 17 is Washington D.C., hence sold in Maryland. but didnt seem to stay more than 2-3 years as with the doors look good, but the bottom of the core support, the rear half of the car around the rear end area and cables/lines/brackets looks rough. and looks as though the heater core leaked in to the passenger floor board, as the carpet is stained. not sayin you can't correct this, but for 6k, for me it would have to be better underneath......

There's now an 88 base and an 87 TC automatic in that search, the 88 has the same interior color as my 86.

I bet that 86 is a basket case.  shiznitty pics are generally taken for a reason.  Not showing certain areas etc...  Is that a reflection around the rear window, cant tell.  That price for a V6, no thanks.

Still wondering, is that color factory?

Edit, reading his description again, seller is a complete cornhole.
