WOW, see this one? Reply #4 – July 29, 2016, 09:47:29 AM Yeah, not a HUGE fan of the color, or the year. I prefer the longer 87-88's, myself. Not sure what that plastic piece would be.And Eric, you're welcome....glad I could dangle forbidden fruit in front of you! LOL Quote Selected

WOW, see this one? Reply #7 – July 30, 2016, 05:46:28 PM Looks like the only power options are mirrors and antenna. No cruise, AM radio.It's about as basic as you can get. Wonder why it was never driven. Quote Selected

Odd that it is in the trunk. Maybe it was removed to service the tank and someone forgot to re-install it. Interesting car. Makes me wonder the reason why it was not driven. Was it intentional or just a fluke? Quote Selected
WOW, see this one? Reply #10 – August 01, 2016, 11:01:49 AM I saw this car on Autotrader a few weeks ago ... it has been steadily falling in price. I think it has come down somewhere in the neighborhood of $5-7K since I first saw it. Quote Selected
WOW, see this one? Reply #11 – August 01, 2016, 04:03:06 PM Reminds me of my 83 (in my sig) RIP. Strange to see grey interior in there. Mine had tan/yellow (whatever you call that color) interior. Quote Selected

Was it intentional or just a fluke?This is a pure WAG, but perhaps the person who purchased was killed/otherwise incapacitated, and the family "kept it that way for them"?? I had an uncle up in SD that purchased a brand new self-propelled hay swather one fall back in the late 80's. Parked it in his barn for the winter, plastic still over the seat, in antition of putting it to work the following year. That winter, however, as he was raking snow off his roof, he fell off the ladder, and went into a coma. The rest of the family kept that swather JUST the way he left it, until the day he died, over a decade later. "Just in case" he came out of it.Not saying that's what happened here, but, you just never know! Quote Selected
