Well i can see how that price would be somewhat reasonable, seeing as it is pretty  clean, but yeah personaly I wouldn't get it for that price either.

Sweet merciful , that's expensive! You can find 'em in the auto trader in that shape for $2-$3k in Ontario if you look hard enough

If I could get a great body and interior here, on the island, for < 3K CND i'd consider it but that's 2 to 3 X more than I'm willing to pay.

Oh, good. Now I don't feel so bad paying $3,200 for mine. :p Did you notice it had 'every avaiable option' but no sunroof?

This summer their was someone here selling an 83 cougar for $13,900.00.  :giggle: (That is not a typo)

I was in perfect condition wiht only 60 000 miles.

I don't think it ever sold  :p

My '88 T-Bird is in near perfect condition (the torn driver's seat being its only flaw and a real thorn in my side) and had 47k miles on it when I bought it for $3500 CDN. It now has about 55k miles
 
I might pay half what his starting bid is...
 
Thundergrowl: When I bought my T-Bird it had those same wheels on it. I didn't want 'em so the guy took 'em off and took $500 off his asking price. I bought my 10-holes for $50 and restored 'em, and IMO they look better than the 5-stars. I've never been a big fan of those wheels...

Funny you should say that. I took mine off this past summer and replaced them with my 10 holes also. I think it looks better too.
