Have you guys seen this T-Bird for auction. Do you think it's a good buy? (cut and paste link)

it has a few miles but that is a damn nice lookin tc. mine is identical but not nearly as nice.
$2450 plus shipping and other expenses! Sounds steep to me.
it looks nice but has high miles and for $2450 thats way too much.
Here in Connecticut, that would go for more. That is exactly what my old TC looked like, except I had blue leather seats. I would pay up to $3,500 for that car- you can always rebuild the engine. Finding a body that nice is damned tough. -Kent
that is true..but for that high of miles i wouldn't give more than $1800. i bought my tc with 70,000 original miles and clean body for $1700...
It all depends on which part of the country you're in. On the upper east coast KentCT88TC would pay $3500 for that car. Out here on the west coast I wouldn't give more than $1300-$1500. They seem to be more plentiful and far less rust on the left coast. I bought my '86 with 166k but pampered all it's life with fresh paint and pristine interior for $900.
'Please take a minute to read this' is then followed with a mile of mumbo jumbo...

$86 dollar transaction fee to cover...blah blah blah...their title fees...phone calls...mail...toothpaste?

What a rip joint. I hope he chokes on it. Weasel
There seem to be very few '87 and '88 Turbo Coupes left in Connecticut. You very rarely see them on the road anymore. I drove 250 miles and back to get mine. I get plenty of looks with it. Do see an occasional '85 or '86 around. Maybe they all got rusted out with the salt they put down for the snow. Glad to hear they are plentiful somewhere. -Kent
They seem to be pretty rare here in MI too. I took my white '87 to the St. Ignace Cruise night a few times (1997-1999) and each time I had the only not just TC, but 80's Tbird. There used to be several on the road around here but not anymore. They've dropped out of the wheeler dealer and auto swapper too.
