    "1976 CHEVROLET CAPRICE ESTATE WAGON,ONLY 66K ACT MLS,RUNS/DRIVES GR8!!!

    MAJOR PRICE BREAK!!!! ONLY $4,550.00 FIRM!!!!

    WHERE R U GOING TO FIND ANOTHER CLAMSHELL WITH 66K ACT MLS FOR THIS CHEAP $!!!

    I have neglected this baby long enough!

    So,I went and washed her up today and I went and drove her for 1 hour and she did GR8!

    ALWAYS A HOUSTON TEXAS CAR!

    Car had a little lite rust here and there from previously sitting for 5 years from its original owner(I am car's 2nd owner),and the worst damage that was done was cars upholstery(sport cloth seats) getting mildewed which still needs to be addressed.

    Worst case u just have inserts done.

    Car still needs very lite TLC but nothing drastic!

    66K ACT MLS GUARANTEED!!!!

    IF CAR HAD 'NO STORY'- IT WOULD BRING 15 GRAND WITH THESE TYPE OF MILES ALL DAY LONG!!!

    U WILL NOT EVER FIND A BETTER DEAL ON ONE!!!

    With new tires and a new muffler I wouldn't hesitate to jump in this baby and to take off to any destitnation in it(I added low mileage rally wheels to it but tires r kind of dry rotted and I can hear a sound from its muffler like it has a tiny hole(s) in it-NO BIG DEAL).

    Plus,besides CRAZY LOW MILES,we r talking about a last year CLAMSHELL wagon,a Caprice Estate Wagon,and one with one of the BEST color combo's ever(any outside color over red guts cannot be beat)!

    I'm in it right,I bought it right,and I am not being greedy here with my price!

    I've owned a dozen of these cars and this is the BEST deal that I ever got on one/offered one for sale at!

    Besides rally wheels,an after market 2 knob cassette stereo,and the red rally steering wheel that I added for my liking,car is all original(original steering wheel is included if wanted along with roof rack).

    QUICK UPDATE,I FOUND A DEAL ON MY MOST FAVE WHEELS(COKE BOTTLE WHEELS) SO NOW THESE R ON IT,RALLY WHEELS R GONE,SO IF SOLD,IT WILL ONLY BE SOLD WITH CUSTOM WHEELS."

    It's been for sale forever. I'm sure we have a previous thread here. Severe mold is the issue.

    From the pictures, I thought this might be a pretty good deal, but obviously, I couldn't see the mold issue.

    And it's been painted and he could not produce pictures of the areas that were repaired. I asked multiple times about it and all he could say was he had pictures on his old computer of it before, and the rust was around the rear windows. His red wagon is awesome, this one is scary

    Um....you see that black stuff = death mold:29:. Seller in previous listings showed more pics of other seats etc that showed the black death. Sorry but I'm not gona search for them, but they are in the forum.............. this wagon just needs to disappear and go away mainly because of seller, so no more questions....just walk away 101......before "it"(the seller) comes back yet one more time........

    insert evil organ music witch sounds of chainsaw and blood curdling screams.............


    Ever watch a hairy potter, 101?....... it's screen name we do not mention:49:


    Now stop it or........

    Surely the interior can be replaced.

    And now I let this topic go down.
