Default High milage on eBay

eBay listing
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1984-...exp=true#v4-47
There is an 84S with over 300k on the clock. It's a survivor car without doubt. Just goes to show if you drive them they will last
If they sit in the garage the rats will win

I have bid on it, no idea what to do with it if I win it.

Lots of rust around the quarter windows. It can be repaired, make a cool track car.

It has about 50k more before someone is going to spend some $$$. I got 370 on my 83 before selling it. It still ran so well I couldn't find a reason to change the spark plugs. It was all the other things that were all wearing out. Like most of the rubber bushings all over the car. Make a great toy if it could be bought right.

Don't buy it , Van. If you get outbid, thank your lucky stars. There are better deals and cars out there for your money than what this car appears, even for the modest bucks currently bid on it. This car needs some significant body work and the interior need to be replace. Even with all or any of that you still have an early car with over 300k miles. Let it go.

I was a huge spender. My top bid was $525. Mostly I was thinking there would be enough parts in it to make it worth while, It sold for nearly $2k. I'm a bit surprised it went that high. ( it had about $700 in back fees and who knows about the smog issues?

Did you see the last statement of the ebay ad?

"Used as executive daily driver for CEO of corporation." Talk about stretching the truth!

LOL!!! Maybe when the car was showroom new. No self respecting CEO of any company would drive that POS, unless it was the CEO of your local meth distributor.
