Has this ever happened to anybody in here?
I was looking to buy a beater for the winter So I don't have to use my SS..I found like the perfect car a 1987 Crown Victoria LTD 5.0 FI, Power everything even an aftermarket Sunroof in awesome condition in and out.. for $600.. New tires brakes,tranny..
I honestly love driving this car so much I want to get a beater for this one now!!! I guys us car guys truly love cars no matter what.. I mean I never expected to spend so little and get what I got.. I love it and will feel bad about using it in the winter . |

$600? That's a great price. What condition is it in?

Yea I think I'm gonna have to venture out there to find a good car. There's way too much crap around here.

My mother-in-law gave me her 2002 Blazer a few months ago when she became unable to drive. I love driving it. No anxiety about door dings when I park. My Camaro now waits for the weekends to stretch its legs.
If you can get a decent beater, do it. |

Not one ding on her.. This is the kind of car you drive to Maaco and get a 200 paint job and spend 200!! lol |

Not bad lol. I remember about 15 years ago we used to pick up ex police units for 200 bucks. RWD in snow still sucks tho. I just hope it does not snow too much or at all this year. All 3 cars we have are RWD.
