That link doesn't work. It looks like the link craigslist sends you to manage your ad, not the link for the ad itself. The link should begin with the name of the city.


Is this your ad?

That's a good-looking car, but your ad says the condition is only "good to fair." What's only fair about it?

It's in very good condition for it's age. The fair condition would be the missing trim pieces where the roof meets the trunk and some repairs needed.

In my opinion, you need to document these better. Your photos don't show the problems, and they're not described in the ad.

$4000 is a pretty strong asking price. I'm not saying the car isn't worth that much. What I am saying is that, for that kind of money, people are going to want to know the specifics of the problems. A simple mention of the condition as "fair" doesn't do that.

What, specifically, are the needed repairs?

I've had 2 of them, both 2 door which are the rarer of the Delta 88's and even if it was showroom new, you'd be lucky to get $4,000.

Still a nice car, but my first Delta was in that condition and I paid $1400 for it
