We had one of those. 1977 I think. My wife claims she would be passed by trash trucks coming up a long grade to our community.
Its replacement, a 1985 small LTD with the 3.8 V-6, was a lot quicker, and I spent a lot of time driving that. It seemed decently quick at the time, but I imagine that if I had to revisit it today, I'd hate it.
67 Nova -- I simply cannot believe that someone bid $5,600 for that atrocious rat of a car.
71 C-10 -- refreshingly honest ad actually.
Pickup's a mess, why bother?
It probably easily needs 5K of body work unless you can do all the prep yourself.
RE: Oven Cleaner. What the heck was he thinking? Didn't he ever hear of Goo Gone?

Also, one of the doors looks like someone tried to shoot their way out of the car.
Mine was a 2-door, surprisingly enough. But a total stripper. Not a single damned option in that car, as far as I know. Not even a radio.

Wonder if she had a nice, sturdy rear-end?
Don't worry...it was the Dodge Dart variety! :P

That style Riviera isn't all that bad. That touchscreen system, was pretty advanced for 1988. Think about it, 25 years later and they are just starting to be commonplace.
The BMW is nice. My lack of knowledge for Euro cars shows. I had to look up what a "Guibo" was. Never heard that term before.

edit - I guess not, this one has a rear seat, the 'Scooter' didn't even have that!
"very safe little car ... great for a first car "
Only if you HATE your kid... :sick:
1984 Peugeot diesel: "been known to put 1,000,000 miles on these 4 banger diesels" -- maybe on the back of a flatbed truck?
'55 Stude -- parts car
'64 Stude-- parts car
'88 Riviera -- the price is right!
'61 Cad 4D HT -- a little pricey with that body damage---try $9950, take $8900.
'67 Ford Custom -- might need a price adjustment--has dents, nasty engine bay, could be worth saving with an "econo-resto" by a thrifty buyer.
'72 BMW Bavaria --$11,800 for a Bavaria? Good luck with THAT. Try $5500.
'76 Chevette--really worth about .50 cents, but $1000 would be a good buy--these little crates can actually chug along for quite a while--but $2600 would be the value of a Pebble Beach Chevette :P
That Bavaria begs the question - "Why not spend the same $$ on a newer AND better 5er?"
Turn signals on my project car are being quirky again - sometimes work fine, sometimes work weird (irregular blinking time and brightness), sometimes nothing. I think the module is dying. I had to try to rap it with a pliers handle to see if it would help, nope.
Had it on the road a bit today as the modern car was in for an adjustment. Went to Costco, parked in the boonies, when I returned of course a car parked near me, but at least it was behind me:
Stopped by the dealership to get the keys to the modern car before dropping off the fintail - again 50 years difference:
Several people at the dealer came out to look at the old car - such a good 15 footer.
I think the Esso Oil Drop man would make a good mascot for the top of the fintail's dash as it has sort of that vintage European vibe. I recall seeing the image of this character in the background of a lot of old LeMans races.
Did you ever notice that everytime you buy a new car, park it out in the boonies, and you still have this guy parked next to you no matter what?
I had a lot of seat time in a Navigator and it didn't seem too bad to park, but nothing like a car (even a land yacht).

I am usually one of the first in the parking garage at work, and I choose a specific space - it is long, with a pole on one side. I can get close to the pole and then back up far, so the car is kind of tucked away from door ding risk. In the building where I live, the people who park beside me are relatively competent at parking, and I also have a pole on one side, which I see as protection.
I'll still say this; if want overall horrible visibility come drive my 2012 Lacrosse. Backup cam and parking sensors are worth their weight in gold on that car.

Printed price is $2999, I'd offer like $2K. It's very original, straight, complete, seems to run ok, and is a very late production car. But, it is a little weathered, and has a few areas of rust bubbles, especially behind wheelarches and in the front passenger headlight area. Structurally, it is fine. Not a real collectible, but some nut might want it.
I actually think your fintail is more distinctive. From a distance, the new MB could be mistaken for any of a dozen similarly styled cars.

And this has to be the greatest misuse of the phrase "excellent condition" I've ever read.

Hudson has a bit too much patina for my tastes. Some closet hipster types seem to like that.
