Ford used that COE bodystyle up until the mid-80s. Interesting that the parking brake is mounted on the dash. That also means is has hydraulic brakes and not airs. Find a similar vintage travel trailer, mount it to the chassis and WOILA! instant psychobilly RV.
I did the same with mine (also a white MKI)Originally Posted by dodint
Reasoning: i was driving at 25mph (traffic) and it was just going to rust with me (took it out at every snowfall)
Some days i just want to punch myself in the gut for doing that
Yeah but did you expound about how much you loved it before/during ownership?
Ugh, the MKI is my realistic dream car
This one had 2.5x the power as his and i paid less than 5k for it.
I pounded and expounded my love for it and sold it for the same "I'm not doing it justice" reason (except mine was driven 5-6x a week).
I nearly cried when the guy pulled out with it
What the Fuck was i thinking :X
1985 Toyota MR2 - $5000
1939 Cadillac Fleetwood Formal - $47900
Standard transmission. Not suprising, given the year, but cool!
More psychobilly RV material, perhaps?
1966 Ford F500 Flatbed Truck Original Owner low hours hauls 4 tons - $3900
1989 Chevrolet Caprice 34,100 original miles - $5300
Hmm. I wonder how this would do with snow tires...
979 Mazda RX-7 Rx7 one Owner original Miles - $2800
1991 Nissan FIgaro �� SUPER CLEAN! �� - $17500 (+ Mendel's Garage)
$5k for an AW11 MR2 with what will almost certainly be a run big end?
Yeah, right.
This little red '86 AW11 with 134K miles appeared in my FB Marketplace feed for $1600 USD.
...it's an automatic of course.
Mr Regular's finished at 9200.
Leon, 5k for one with less miles and a blown engine sounds plausible (plus it's craigslist, so 3k-4k is possible)
I bought and sold my old AW11 manual supercharged, hardtop, super original for less than that.
I would have thought that an AW with a dead engine would be maybe a $2k car. Different market I guess.
Seems like they might be going up in value here. They've been super cheap for a long long time. I bought mine for $2500 back in '99, sold it for $4k in 2006 but it was supercharged by then and had suspension, wheels, stereo, etc.
