My parents bought it for me and I think they paid about $800 bucks for it. It had no muffler which turned out to be a good thing, it may have taken a lot of "off road" adventures through fields, country roads and pastures.

The rear 1/4 panel was so rusted that the gas tank filler pipe was tied with a piece of rope to the exposed strut. The floor boards were completely rusted out, so a couple of 'No Parking' signs were bolted into place lest it become a Flintstone mobile. Completely falling apart, BUT the POS NEVER had a problem starting. I'd leave the old man, who was never without a joke about my beauty, struggling to get his shiny Chrysler New Yorker started while I just reached in through the window, turned the key, and commenced ice scrapping detail.<BR/><BR/>Sold that car a a keg party for $20.
