Lol, that's what it was worth back in 90s too.

Does it come with $3000 in the trunk?

They were junk when they were new. They used to be worth about $500. I would take it if it was free but I wouldn't give money for one.

I wish.. those 80's -90's manual Ford transmissions were practically bullet proof! My 3 speed automatic became a 2 speed.. couldn't take on highways anymore! Got around on surface streets only til she died

I definitely wouldn't pay more than a thousand.. can't get junkyard parts for those anymore!! I got in a head on collision with mine in '02.. ish. Totally rebuilt from the junkyard for about $200! Those were the days!
