My girlfriend paid $500 for this hunk of **** and asked if I would post it for sale. At the time of her request it was clear that our extra curricular nocturnal activities will continue only with my diligent effort to sell this fine automobile.
This is a great opportunity if you are a complete looser and understand that if you somehow get this ****-box to run, it’s still a Mercury or Ford Tortuous with a different label.
This is the perfect car for the person that thinks old crap has some sort of nostalgia, and it actually sucks. Like the guy the rolls out on the weekend for the Civil War reenactment with a musket jamming a stick down the barrel to make the POS gun work, sporting red garb and CSA flag rolling around on the ground “pretending to be shot”, then doing it all again at the next outing. Knowing the results will be the same. Dude change sides and buy an automatic weapon, or maybe a bomb.
The ride. A classic, all four tires hold air. 0-60mph in just under 12 minutes. It starts and will drive, then after a few minutes the cars temperature gets as hot as the sun. A perfect gas saver allowing only short trips before over heating requiring the engine to be shut down to cool, which in theory reduces vehicle emissions and will end global whining.
It drips every color in the spectrum. This design, available in most Ford automobiles, ends the need for pesky, time consuming oil changes and other fluid replacements, requiring only daily refill.
Thanks for your support of my ongoing attempt of continued fornication.
I guess hes going to be lonely for a while.
