That's a Diplomat, and I agree. It is sort of hot.

Yeah I was literally pleased when someone stole my Dynasty. My 5th ave wasn’t too bad, I guess. Just boring. 

And I’m starting to love what white letter tires do to the look of a car

When I opened your Dodge ad FB also showed this diesel Ford for $4k

This would be $7k in the rust belt when you add in 7.4L tax and the rust free body

As proof, here is a 1996 near me asking $6.2k

The manual trans wouldn’t drive the price down on that truck?

And trust me, if I hadn’t reached the point in life where I’m completely burnt out of being on the highway there are a steady supply of vehicles that could be flipped up north for profit. Maybe you , I & SBF need to setup an LLC?

always loved me some diplomat, I'd guess this was 1998. The Michigan police car in the driveway was being parted, engine in my d150 and the useable not rusted parts put aside to keep others alive. They were $600 cars then though.

$946.78 in 2019’s dollars, for comparison

All truth, the light blue gran fury was $1300 but the dark blue detectives car was $400, the white pursuit was $500 @ auction in Lockport Illinois and the Michigan pursuit was $150 from my neighbor in the dorm who couldn't work on it. You never see them now but people would still dive out of your way when you caught them at twenty over till about '05 haha.
