Why on earth would a person part that out? Idiot?

Some inner city daddy would buy this in a heart beat for a pimp mobile. It is actually not a bad looking limo and it is priced right. Big problem for any buyer is where to store such a monster.

It needs to be sold as a running, operating vehicle. Once parts come off, it's soon to be a big rusting piece of "junk" with NO value.

As good as the interior appears to be, some paint and repairs could make it an attractive Corporate Limo for somebody. Rent it out for shopping tours for the ladies. It's got a big enough trunk!

Someone must have had diarrhea on the back seat. No one will want to sit on that spot. And from the other back seat, you will see the spot..and think about it; wondering if the diarrhea was induced by beef, or possibly a bad batch of Chinese food,..etc

 

[CBODY67]

Maybe a soft drink that fizzed too much when opened?

The box of Arm & Hammer on the floor is a dead give away.

That thing will snap in half at the first RR crossing. Pure 100% rust down below.

Yeah rust prevention is almost non existent on these conversions.

I wonder who did the conversion. Looking at the back seat picture I spy what appear to be another door in the stretch conversion. Is this a 6 door funeral car with the middle seat turned around or just a crap 2 car cut and weld'm together job? Not a lot of leg room for the middle seat passengers.

The owners are smart to offer it as a "parts car" and not try to sell it as a running, operating limo.

With this crash, killing 20 people (18 in the limo and 2 in the parking lot), all the agencies are taking hard looks at how these vehicles are being operated. Schoharie limousine crash - Wikipedia.

A rusty old Chrysler limo is just a lawsuit waiting to happen if the seller isn't careful. If it were mine, I would have pulled off anything saleable and run it across the scales.

I remember reading about that crash. Back in the heyday of the early 80's everyone was slicing and dicing limos together, some good, most bad.
Everyone was getting into the Limo business as the drunk drive laws were ramping up and enforcement was getting real strict due to MADD. (ie no more paying off some State Trooper or DMV official to erase your DUI record) Believe me, I had a good friend that was local PD then that was dating a ATF agent that could get into the computer system back then and make anything disappear.
