well ,i just got back. another solid gold piece of junk. it was a 65 v8 poppy red
car ,at one time.she did have the pink .and that is were the good part ended. the floors were rusted through and the rear floor was shoved up into the car about 10 inches .the quarters had bondo over rott. the tail panel had been hit hard and beat back out and packed full of bondo .the quarter drains were pluged with bondo and full to the top with water. the trans tunnel was butcherd and patched with a piece of sheet metal popriveted over it. the tranny mount under the floor had been cut away ,but thats ok they ran a piece of c chanel form floor support to floor support
for a new tranny mount. she said but it has new paint, yep i could pull it off in sheets.
the doors ,fenders and hood and all the front pieces were new .they painted right over the labels on the sheetmetal. i offerd $1000. i figured the front sheet metal was worth that.she turned me down saying it a mustang and they are worth moneyany way if you should happen to come across the add ,dont waist your time.

Would explain why she took the picture with a 70's era Kodak 110 disposable camera (vintage 6 Million Dollar Man motif) then used an early 80's 300 dpi scanner (converted from parallel port to USB) to process the image for posting after printing on the Epson dot-matrix printer and rescanning.

5.0Droptop would be proud.

Yeah, it looks like a scan of a print of a screen capture of a really bad photo.

Sometimes I won't even bother to go look if the photos are bad enough. Says to me that they're trying to hide something because even cheap phones take better photos than that.

I'm sure those were just minor dents and scratches that will buff right out!

"it a mustang and they are worth money"

The best. Ever.
I own a classic, and it's worth a couple million.
