someone should jump on that deal- just make sure to not call on a landline and to bring a gun and a few buddies with when you go to look at it.

i saw an ad for something on the Fargo Craigslist yesterday that made me do some thinking- it said the following: "CAR MUST SELL BY SATURDAY OR IT IS GETTING SCRAPPED.sorry for no pics, but will get some up after the weekend".

If that T-Bird is for real, somebody please grab it! The 66s were the best version of that body.

I wouldn't rule that out as legit without a call. One of the lemons teams just brought one to a recent race. That era of t-bird isnt getting much love right now.

I would assume it is real. You can get those for around $2000 in running condition from what I have seen, if it is missing the entire drivetrain that price isn't hard to believe.

Who could possibly have the heart to scrap that lovely old thing

Wicked lawn ornament, if nothing else.

For $350 I'd be all over that! Drop in a newer Mustang driveline and have fun

The ones I've seen had no floors, and the ones I've seen were in far nicer shape...

Entirely possible it's legit..."tone of voice" in the ad sounds like deadbeat friend/family member set it on somebody's property for "just a few weeks" a few years ago.

Whole ad to me sounds like "..come get your BMW E36 outta my yard, cousin.."
