    Yikes!!!

    I wonder if that car has been sitting in a field? I never understand why people don't use their garages! Some people store the darnest things in there that is probably not a great deal of value. I don't know why anyone who says they want to restore that car someday, leaves it outside in a field (the worst thing you can do to a car) and hoping it will be in the same exact condition they left it in. ROTTEN SHAME!!!!:(

    Now that is what I call DEDICATION!!! Good grief! I mean unless that particular car (and I mean THAT CAR) has some large sentimental value, I would say that is a trot-line weight. Preston

    I'd say it's already been a trot line weight... salvaged from the bottom of the Mississippi.

    maybe if it was some rare SCJ version of a Mach, but even then you would be better off pulling the VIN tags and starting fresh.

    Whatever the price is for scrap metal is at this moment is all that Mustang is worth. We have repaired some pretty rough cars already, but we wouldn't touch that one with a ten foot pole.

    I looked at the pictures trying to find one redeeming quality about it, and all I see that it would be good for is target pratice! :slap:

    I love this statement from the auction.

    "The VIN Tag and factory VIN stamped passenger’s side inner fender are in place and in great shape."


    Must be the only thing on the whole car!!! :rolleyes: :D
