88 Sport with....ONLY 17K!?

1988 Thunderbird Sport

Guy is asking way too much, although I've never seen one with that low mileage before. It's basically a new car.

I call shenanigan's. My Sport has 140K and is cleaner (except the rust and the giant bend in the uni-body). Seriously, my interior is nicer.

In fact. Layla's engine bay has 178K and is a LOT cleaner then that one! That engine bay looks like @$$!!!!!

Looks just like a little dust is all. I bet a good hosing off of the the engine, and it would shine. What's wrong with the interior? Looks pretty darn clean to me.

That engine bay needs a LOT more then a hose off. There's surface rust EVERYWHERE.

Check out the amount of dirt IN the taillights too.

$10 says the dash is cracked (hence the awkward angles). The pictures point to stained carpet as well. Door panels are turning brown on top from dirt embedding. Driver's seat side bolster is worn raw.

Check the rubber hood stops, they have been painted over.

I've seen that often, actually. I think they come like that from the factory.

Those pics are great compared to the ones on this auction. Though it is only $500.
