1989 LTD Crown Victoria in Fort Worth, TX - $800

[Giraffe]

Ad says original owner passed away and it's been sitting for a while. Might be a pretty good deal?

That's my kind of deal! Sub $1K, needs a bit of work (not much from the sounds of it) to get it running, way better shape than my current sub $1K DDs.
I am curious what shape the header panel is in behind that cracked grille and headlight bezel. Looks like it should be good enough.

Needs a nose job and the passenger front door popped back out... but otherwise looks clean. Gas is probably at least 2 years old. Inspection was out in 2015. The gas tank may need replaced and the pump may be seized. It is a clean "southern car" in all respects though. May have issues with the title if the seller doesn't have the power of attorney for sale of the vehicle if it's still in the name of the deceased.

Yep, fuel pump is probably shit but for $800, it's pretty straight. Decent goddamn deal if you ask me. May go look at an '87 continental or '87 mkvii tomorrow. Don't know why I want to buy another car but I do. Also may pick up another gun too. Might be a product of spending more time at work than home or anywhere else and just wanting something to feel like it's all worth it. Buying crap makes me happy now and then

'bout to say, Vic beat me to it haha. Around here, something that clean for that kind of dough would go within 6 hours. All we see @ sub $2,500 prices are rusty trash.

They've got the hood and trunk popped to hide the completely roached clear coat. I mean that's all appearance crap, but it's telling that there's no good shots of any part of the top of it/hood/roof/vinyl/trunk.

That is a deal. It needs work but what doesn't. For that money it would be a nice second car. I hope someone here gets it .

I would so get it, but I'm sort of broke at the moment.

The continental is the right year, Mark VII, not so much. Keep it 90-92 on those, later the better.

Too bad it looks like something went down the entire right side of it, judging by the damaged chrome on the rear dogleg area and the paint missing on the rear bumper cover. The top doesn't look too bad, at least the sides don't, but we all know what the roof usually looks like. Still looks like a decent deal assuming no title mess. Hope it doesn't go to a derby.
