302 V8. I've posted this LTD before. It is now at a giveaway price. Seller clearly wants it gone and fast. If anyone on the forum wants a 1981 LTD wagon dirt cheap, here it is. http://houston.craigslist.org/cto/3296520816.html
He had it priced at $300 so I figured it would go very fast. This was the yellow LTD S I posted previously. Low option but clean and solid looking.
Oh wow. Or someone was pranking him, I thought the lowest price I saw was $1800 last year. And it was $2500 again this year. But hell, I would have given $300 for it and had it stored at my mother-in-law's house for a few weeks until I could get down there with the Suburban and a borrowed 18-foot trailer (found out sister in law's husband has one for his race cars and he only uses it one day a week! so I've got some more range on finding a vehicle if it doesn't run!)
For those interested, this was it. The original ad is still posted so pics were still available. Looks like quite a buy for $300.
$300 is LESS than scrap price! There is no possible way to lose on this one. either you end up with a decent driver, or a LOT of free parts!
