    1987 Mercury Colony Park Full Size Wagon (Put "Waggin" in subject line if emailing)

    135,000 miles. I've taken good care of her since I bought her a few years ago ( 112,000 miles when bought). I had 3 grown teenagers and a wife to haul around when I bought it. Fixed all the window motors and tailgate window. She's not perfect but I wouldn't hesitate driving her across country. Ac doesn't work, never drove it enough to worry about fixing it. Heater works, has factory radio. I don't have to get rid of it just don't need it anymore and hope it will go to someone who loves these land yachts. Rear jumper seats are missing ( weren't there when I bought it). Call me 8fiveo -2ten- twenty87 No calls after 9pm/ email me, and come by and check her out. No solicitors, no scammers no checks no games. If you love these rides you'll love this ride. Put "Waggin" in email subject line. May consider trade, what ya have?

    This one's been for sale for a loooong time.

    Hell, I'd let mine go for 2 grand, and I'm still under 100,000 miles.
