This car is being offered for sale by the original owner of this car. he has had it stored but drives it once in awhile to keep things lubricated. they are an older couple who plans to give have of this sale to their church, so bid with your heart!! if you have any questions about this car please call them @330-478-0383 and ask for Frank. There is a reserve and price to be hit but it is very resonable. this is an actual 9,000 mile one owner car!!!!! Sale will be cash only to the seller and shipping of any sort is the responsibility of the buyer. sale price needs to be paid in 7 days of final bid if excepted

Impossible to tell if it is really 9000 or 109000 with the lack of pictures and information. The one picture of the odometer does not inspire confidence in the claim.

great looking interior and nicely optioned, i see pw and tilt, both rare in 73 furies

I'd really like to believe it is a one owner, 9k mile car that is reasonable priced with half going to the church, and that it will end up with a true, long time C-body guy.

 

[mdh157]

BTW, why would you pay him if your sales price was "excepted"? see last line of descr

 

[commando1]

between $1.98 and $$6,000.00 after a touchy-feely in person inspection

The "zero" on the speedometer picture is sitting pretty high like it's the 2nd time around indicating to me it might be 109,000 miles. From what I can see in the pictures it's a nice car.

At least there is a direct phone number to "Frank" given which is supposed to be the owner himself; I find it at least more likely than other ads of the kind I saw.

I'm starting to see so many exceptions to that rule that I'm convinced that is an old wive's tale now.

 

[cm23uoc]

Time to call Frank.

I NEVER believed that

 

[polara71]

No reason why it cant have 9000 miles on it ...... 109,000 would be a stretch. Obviously an inspection is required for that 9000 mile claim

I worked for several GM and Mopar dealerships in the late '70s. It was not unusual to see odos off on cars right off the hauler. Sometimes it just is, what it is.

 

[azblackhemi]

There is no doubt it could have only 9K on it but if I was selling it I'd write an ad and include pictures worthy of such a low mileage gem. As far as the odometer the misalignment doesn't necessarily mean it's rolled over but when it is shown as one of only four pictures ya gotta wonder. There's not enough other information to keep me from focusing on the odometer.

Look at all the bidders. A real rouges gallery of people bidding on dozens of cars at once. Either some thinking they can get it low enough to flip and perpetuate the 9,000 mile story or some just having fun for the hell of it.

 

[HemiFury1973]

It's EXACTLY a same car as i bought TODAY A YEAR AGO and that was crashed to the sea before i got it. Anybody said karma?
