OK - so it's a 2WD DLX AT in Dallas with - 72K miles (!).
The body and interior look REALLY nice; no rust is apparent.

I can take a looksee if anyone is interested. But it seems to be overpriced and prolly won't sell, maybe I can get a feel for how much they will take if the bidding ends and it doesn't sell.
It's a scientific fact that in a twin engine aircraft, when one engine fails there is always enough power in the remaining engine to make it all the way to the crash site.

If the seller is looking for $1700 for a 2WD AT DLX - I agree. Still, only 72K miles...
I just noticed it has one of those "T" hood mascots - only in the South? Are those alloy wheels (on a 2WD DLX AT !)?

Well - it's up to $1575 already, with 14+ hours to go; it will be interesting to see the final price. Anyone here?
Boy - for a 2WD - and an AT, to boot! Of course, with only 72K, I'd guess only the filters, fluids, hoses, belts, and maybe some bushings are all the maintenance it would need...

I know of an '83 4WD manual with about the same mileage...I'd might give $3K for it...if the guy would sell it. He is the orig owner...keeps it for winter driving he says. He also has a fairly rusty Maverick he said he wouldn't sell to another guy...so it's not going to happen.

A record for a 2WD DLX with an AT? Still, only 72K...
