The exhaust fell off of it 2 weeks after he bought it. and then he said the glove box had white smoke coming out of it, so he took it into a shop and was quoted like 1500 for repairs. So he just got another car...a green hyundai.
He said he sold the car to his buddy for 200 bucks 4 months ago, but he never came to pick it or the title up. I asked him to get a hold of his friend and see if we could work something out, and that I'd give him 200 for the non rotten doors right then and there.
His friend called me today, and said he was without a car and was saving up to get the 1500 together to fix the delta at the said shop. I told him I would trade him that 97 Escort (FREEBIe) for the delta straight up. He is coming to look at it tomorrow 
Both cars have 138000ish miles .....petty eerie huh?
I'll take an Olds over a purple escort any day. 50 bucks in heater core and exhaust tubing and I'll be cruising that bad boy hopefully. |
Can you post an image of the Ford, just for "old" time sake? Sorry had to....
