(937) 836-2438 Englewood, Ohio : I think you can find a picture of it at: http://www.traderonline.com : : Let us know if you call on it. : : ========================================================================== : : I don't live there, but I would be interested in hearing why they think it is worth so much. : : : Yeah, I've only seen it for the last 18 months or so, but, at that price, it'll probably be for sale for another 4 years too... : : : : : : : Being just across the border in Indiana, I have also seen that ad for the $22,000 LTD. They have been running that ad for over 4 years now. I bet they haven't got one serious phone call!! : : : : : : : : ======================================== : : : : : They must be on the same drugs that the people here in Dayton, Ohio are on who have a '76 LTD for sale. They only want $22,000 for. Kind of a steal, huh? : : : : : : : : : : : And they want $12,000!! (choke gasp gag) : : : : : : talk about alot of drug useage : : : : : : : I'd rather own a pacer than a mav, just can't find any. . . . : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : I've had similar experiences. In my college years ('86-'90), people : : : : : : : : : thought the Maverick/Comets were ugly cars. One guy in my school : : : : : : : : : even got featured in the local school newspaper for building a whole : : : : : : : : : farm scene on the hood and roof of his Comet. He used the ugly green : : : : : : : : : astro-turf type carpet, and glued model cows, barns, etc. He was quoted : : : : : : : : : as saying how he thought the Comet was the ugliest car ever made : : : : : : : : : (personally, my vote would have gone to the AMC Pacer--the goldfish : : : : : : : : : bowl on wheels). : : : : : : : : : Lately, though, I've been getting a lot of inquiries about my Comet, : : : : : : : : : usually to the effect of "I love that car!" or "I've never seen anything : : : : : : : : : like it--what is it?" I take the car into work every once in a while : : : : : : : : : when I haven't had the time to give it the proper exercise on the : : : : : : : : : weekends, and often have people asking about the car. : : : : : : : : : I think that as cars have become increasingly victim to "lookalike" : : : : : : : : : styling, the Mavericks and Comets stand out. Nobody has trouble figuring : : : : : : : : : out which car is mine when I take the Comet to work. With the exception : : : : : : : : : of Chrysler's new products, it seems most new cars all seem to blend : : : : : : : : : together, without anything to make them unique. That's one reason why : : : : : : : : : I love my Comet--there's nothing like it.
