    This car does look really good. Just slap a v8 in there and good to go :) my guess would be 126....

    I would say that $4000 is possible, even if it is 126,000 miles. His desciption is very simplistic, so a full inspection would be in order before I would pay anything to him. I do like that color. Black Cherry. I had a 68 Cougar XR7 that was that color. Black leather interior. Ah memories ............. :bouncy:

    If it was closer I'd be all over it....I may be anyway..that mileage has got to be original.
    I sure like that color.

    That is definitely new fresh paint. Possibly trying to sell it before the bubbles and body work come through ... I wouldn't bid without inspecting it ...
