I saw that ad. It seems like too much for a parts car, and yet not everyone is willing to do a 4 door. Kind of a tough decision what is best for that car.
If it needs floors, that would kind of help deciding as it likely wouldn't make sense to do if it needed floors, fenders, quarters.

Yeah, I know what you're saying, I'm not into 4 doors but the interior and exterior trim looks in really good condition and they're getting harder to find. Remember this is in winnipeg, I'm sure you could haggle him down.
I think the seller is slightly wacko. He has been tryiing to sell this car for over a year. I remember seeing it for sale last year in around the SEVEN THOUSAND mark or so, don't quote me on that. I remember his ad even said something to the effect of: "dont wast my time with low offers, people have insulted me with lowball offers Blah, blah, blah......."
It was relisted around the 4000 mark earlier this summer. And now i guess the joke is on him. 1800 is a far cry from the initial price.
Sad to say, but this thing is going to have to be in the 600 - 800 range for us cheap winnipegers to buy it.
Would be a great winter driver, if you could stop the rear springs from rusting though the trunk..LOL

However, there appears to be some uncertainty about this car. It is not the one in the pictures supposedly and the actual car is much rustier. I may go see it tomorrow. I know at least one other forum member has an interest in it and went to look at it today.

Here's the contact from the First add on usedwinnipeg from 3 months ago:
please email webpirate@hotmail.com or call rick @ 586-6641 after 8:00pm Maples / Tyndall Park / North End
Here's the contact on the second add on kijiji from yesterday:
Call 475-9426 or 771-6806 for details Map shows it's located near McGilvary & Pembina.
Different contact #'s and different area's of the city, I'm sure these are 2 different cars. Like beaumontguru said $600 for the parts alone is good deal.
