I found this Taurus on EBAY.. It is in Southern Maine, and maybe someone would want it..


CHEAP AS HELL TAURUS!

You're right, that's a pretty sweet deal. And AFAIK, all you need to do is replace the steering knuckle to make it driveable again. My car has a blown front strut and needs new tie-rod ends (and a wheel bearing to boot) yet is still perfectly driveable.

Her story sounds a bit fishy though. If she can't afford $800 in repairs how is $295 going to help her get another car?

Man, I kind of feeling sorry for her (if the story is true)

is that purple?

 

[sabledale]

nice car for the money if someone wants to put in the time.

I love that color

Email sent to seller. I have the parts to fix it, so I offered to come up and do it. I can definitely sympathize with having kids, and not a lot of money to make things happen. If she really doesn't want to repair it, I'll most likely buy it. Getting ideas already... SC wagon!!

I keep tellin' ya bob... RWD Rear engine Wagon! Toss a Windsor 351 in the back, weld on some extra frame and go to town!

I think a FWD car with a rear mounted engine would be pretty funny!

that'd make for an interesting project.

That was pretty cool of you Bob. If she does take you up on your offer, I'm sure we'll have a TCCA member for life.

Thanks! I actually have all the parts on my dead 93, most are new. Since I can't seem to get to the car to repair it, I figure the parts are better off helping someone in need.

And Dan, easy on my budget pal!

Hmm, seller ended listing early, must have sold it locally. Ah well, I hope she makes out OK!
