20th Anniversary cat 29K Northern PA

http://poconos.craigslist.org/cto/4825477862.html

Reminds me of the forum member up in Canada who had to sell that pristine low-mileage one to someone that promptly stuck it in the snow and salt. :(  Hopefully the ask keeps it out of potential "beater" status. I think we're reaching the point where that won't happen anymore, but you just never know.

Saw one of these in the junkyard a couple of years ago in line to get cut up.  Still had the turbines on it and everything...car was not in horrible shape either.

Good to see he dropped the price. He was asking significantly more a few months back

The driver side fender has been repainted.

I looked at one about 10 years ago or so somewhere near Biglerville, PA that also had paintwork done to the driver side fender with almost the same mileage. It had 27K miles maybe? He was asking $5K or $5500 but I walked because I didn't want to pay that for a previously damaged car. I can't remember though if the one I looked at had a moonroof or not. I wonder if this is that same car. I think whoever bought that car I looked at flipped it. I saw it listed later on by someone else for a higher price. Maybe this is the person who bought the marked-up car and trying to sell it after these nine or ten years for what they paid.

Did these cars get factory pin stripes?

yes, white factory pin stripes

I also see no buck tag

. Good catch. I see it now.
Yea, mine doesn't have the pinstriping but it was common.

Was it applied at the factory and listed on the Monroney sticker or applied at the dealers?

I should have been more accurate with my wording. The owner of the 20th I looked at was firm on $5000 or $5500, not asking which implies flexibility. At least he wasn't flexible at the time I looked at it. He could have wavered with time possibly.

There was another one recently that I didn't look at closely enough (there was one or two pictures and that's it) and I think it was also in PA somewhere. Front 3/4 view in the bright sunshine in a nice-looking neighborhood. I think that price was right about 5,000. Higher miles.

Would make sense to pinstripe at the dealership. Not all but plenty of box Panthers have it too.

Was this the same one that was asking over $9K?  Looks like it.

Right I do remember seeing it almost 10K.
I wonder what happened to the louvered hood custom one on LI, he was down to 7500 and then the ad disappeared. I wonder if someone finally snapped it up. Had a claimed 19k on the odo.

I'm about 90% certain you need to buy this. You just don't own enough cars.

Standard paint stripes were not available on any 20th from the factory:

Any striping was added on at the dealer or aftermarket.


thanks,, I was assuming all the docs show pin stripes ,, assumed it was standard meaning these showed up at the lots with the white pin stripes from the factory
