'K I'm lost here. Who is this Kevin guy and why is he stuck in the 70's? And what's he got to do with us?

Considering it's a Die Hard, I'd say no. Original would have been a Motorcraft. That I expect though. There's no way the original battery would have lasted 20 years.

No doubt it would have had a Motorcraft...

BUT a for few years(late '80 early '90s) our new Sears service vans came in with Die Hard batteries and Road Handler Radial Tires... Dunno if Sears was just trying to be cheap or figured it would be free advertising(who looks at tires on a service van??)

Two hours left...over $16k and still hasn't hit the reserve. Lots of people bidding on it, too.

I was curious so I ran the numbers and dealer invoice would have been $17,196.24 so I would make a guess that his reserve is somewhere North of that.

Ended over 19000 with the reserve still not met(a joke if you ask me,19000 seems like alot for that car).
Dealers want insane prices for older low mile cars,i bet the reserve was north of 25000 if not 30000(like they'll ever see that).
Question i have is,it says it has no warranty but, if it was never registered to anyone but a dealer then doesn't the warranty still apply????????

I'd think you could probably push the issue, but Ford likely has a loop hole or two concerning such instances...

Alright, I called the Ford dealer. The asking price is $22,000. It was owned by a car collector until 91 or 92, then another gentleman bought it and has had it in an enclosed storage building since. Allegedly, the oil and coolant have been changed regularly. The car does not have driver side airbags as mentioned in the ad.

Any one of our cars on this website, if we invested half of what this man thinks this car is worth would be pristine show cars. Think of how far $10,000 would go into your tbird or cougar. I think this Bill Mack is on glue! Now im not an expert at all, but I think if you tried to drive a car thats been sitting this long, your going to find bad things will happen. I bet the oil pan gasket and valve cover gaskets will leak. Just my opinion, but I thought I would post the information that I got.

I think I remember someone on here living near a Buick dealership and they still have a GNX with NO mileage at all. It was never titled, and it's still sitting in the basp00get of the place or something, and in that case because it's never been titled, if sold, it would have a full factory warranty.

I don't think it would have a warranty.That's why they always say something like "50,000 miles or 5 years".That way,they're covered if you never drive your car and the 5 years goes by.

when I bought my cougar, it had a 6/60 warranty. thats why the car was sold. it was out of warranty after 2 years. I've only put 40,000 on it since 89.

As Vinnie alluded to....it would NOT have a factory warranty of any kind. The warranty would have been something like 3 years or 36,000 miles (whichever comes first) on the drivetrain. The fact it wasn't titled means nothing....the warranty begins on the date shown on the bill of sale.
