Not my car.
Just found this on a quick search. Thought someone might be interested.

It's gotten up to like $2500 on eBay but never seems to sell. Probably because the buyers come to their senses once they see the POS.

Wow! Too bad it was left to rot into oblivion. With all the rust it's not worth the money he's asking. Sounds like there's not a single part of the car that doesn't need rust repair. Looks more like 322K in the pics.

It does appear to have the L65 Turnpike Cruiser option: 290hp 400 2bbl with M40 trans. So the driveline might be worth salvaging.

Looks like a 4bbl to me

Might show up here or you may have to log in to e-bay:

I was wrong. It only made it to $2075

Very sad indeed.

It maybe good for a parts car. It also has aftermarket A/C.
