Awww man the Eagle was the best part on those!! It totally finished off the whole "American Pride" look, especially if you had a modded out van to match it!

Welcome to the upper midwest... That car was in the Volo Museum for a time, and from the cars I have seen, there over the years, they are NICE.

The surface rust you see is the rear spring and muffler/tailpipe area. Those areas almost always turned brown with in months of the original purchase. Remember back in those days, they did not have powder coating, and in most cases if they did paint the raw parts. it was just a light coating of paint. Emphasis, if they painted them at all!

I have seen this MANY times over the years when looking at classic cars, especially in that era.

Most likely it was in a garage, where the owner did not put a vapor barrior between the concrete and car, thus condensation...

The quarters and everything else look very clean from the pictures... My guess is if you actually looked atr the car, not just pictures you would be impressed.

And if you are not into classic cars.... You wouldnt understand why you would want one anyhow, so........

Wow you guys are critical. You are looking at too many over restored show cars. Uncoated steel will rust unless you lock it in a room and suck the oxygen out of the air. In 1979 they did not use protective coatings like they do now. No stainless exhaust and no under coating just bare steel. Ever looked at a piece of paper that is 30 years old. It gets yellow. The T-tops may have leaked at one time in transit and dripped on the sticker. Most show cars use reproduction window stickers. The car has been stored in a heated and A/C building as good as it gets. This car is never meant to be driven again and will end up in a Museum. Possibly overseas. Barrett-Jackson auction Jan 09 one sold with 800 miles for $59,400.

OK, so if you want it for a museum, but my '08 Mustang GT is still faster, handles better, cost less than half of what this guy is looking to get, and the exhaust on the new car is Stainless

Do you just need the space? I am not pretending to understand your situation, but something like this to me is worth more than the money. That is a long time to store and care for it.

Nice find, great car and in great condition, would be fun to have in the collection, if it goes low enough might have to grab it.

show-n-go h2o

And a mullett to match the van and eagle.. lol

Nice car, good find. with the trouble in the current GM if they fail the value of that thing will probly tripple.

Did the factory back then use exhaust pipe clamps to hold the exhaust together???
