And no moonroof!  My '85 TC's mileage is almost as low,
and it has a moonroof & leather, for about $2,000 less!!:)

This is true. The one I looked at awhile back has just the basic equipment package with premium sound in lieu of a rear window defroster.
2003 Marauder 300B
1996-97 Cobra wheel straight but weathered (For Sale)
84 TC manual shifter handle no  (For Sale)

BTW, I had a 1988 T-Bird Sport way back when. I found out that it was totalled shortly after trading it in. It still has the ignition switch recall to date.

Special thanx to EricCoolCats for showing me to this site.:bowdown:

Lots of these cars didn't have leather. Mine does and I'm pretty sure it's rare, especially since it's a LX. Most of these cars that I've seen with leather are Turbo Coupes or XR7s.
