1977 Ford LTD Country Squire

Apparently NOT sold. The rust bucket is back. Probably looks even worse in person and scared off the last buyer.

Well we called that one. The buyers car wreck was probably due to pulling up on that thing and causing a T-Bone when he did a burn out trying to flee.

 

Clearly some electrical issues as well. Notice one high beam on and one low beam on...

 

Actually if you watch the videos by cutting and pasting the youtube links posted in the auction.... the car actually does not look all that bad. He shows it firing up, all the windows working, an underneath shot... shows a cornering lamp working..
however I did notice i really cant tell if the turn signal is actually blinking... but doesnt look horrible. Just depends on where you draw the line on price based on what kind of fixing you want to do on it.



I just watched the second video I just posted and as he goes down the wagon, you see the cornering lamp is stuck on
and no signals blinking. When he gets to the back of the car, again you see the rear left signal not blinking. So
between the cornering lamp stuck on and those opposite headlights lit up... makes you wonder about other electric
issues. If money was no option... OR if I were able to tear a car down to the ground and build it back up again;
based on what is there... I would totally go for it.

 

Plus all that time futzing with the radio. He clearly doesn’t now how it works, or there are very few stations in West Chester. I’ll go with the former, as again he waxes on about the rare cream color. It would be interesting to see the Marti detail. 54,089 of the 107,911 Cars like this had that paint color. I just think he stumbled on to what was a very nice car in the day, and he’s fluffing that thing up as best he can. It would good to know how long that car stayed in Canada.

 

Haven't seen anyone else mention this but the enviroment this car was kept in is also a breeding ground for mold.

 

Did you see that shelf, Andy under the carpet when he pulled it back to show you the seats? It was green under there

 

This rusty thing is back.

Wonder if the last “serious” buyer got in an accident on the way to pick up, this time too, just like the first serious buyer did. This clown is a Royal putz. Just own it. They got there, saw this thing first hand and turned tail. The first time his reserve was about $6,300. Remember it shot right up and died. The he had a BIN of $6,200. Crickets..... now we’re at $3,500 and change. If this is your last bid...... take it and run. Quite putting everyone through this misery. Enough already. If you paid over $4. So you got screwed. What did Susan Powers always say? STOP THE INSANITY!
