My beloved Eagle is now for sale with pics
« on: June 05, 2013, 10:21:50 AM »
Dear eaglesnest colleagues,

I regret to post this after 30 years of owner ship my 1983 Eagle SX4 has to be put up for sale due to hard times.

I am the original owner who would wax and shine it every weekend- it was my first brand new car. I thought I could keep it forever. The eagle is a 6cy, automatic with ~ 120k original miles. The transmission was rebuilt at ~80K. I changed the oil every 3,000 miles. It is a fantastic vehicle always very reliable. It is in good condition and has never been in an accident. It has been sitting for a while so it will need a battery.
I want it to go to someone who appreciates it and will take care of it. I even bought an SX4 parts car "just in case" I needed it- but never have. You can have that with it. To me this car is priceless but I will ask $1,500.00 for this rare find but please make me an offer (times are hard).  I have all the paperwork including the original owner's manual. We are located in New York just outside of NYC. Please contact me at [email protected].
My heart is truly broken.
I am having difficulty posting the pictures- I wanted to post them here if someone could tell me how.
Until then email me and I will send you the pictures- it is what AMC called "vintage red" metalflake.

Just curious, how is that chit chat?  .... seems like contextual dialog to me

(I mean no offense, just have had a number of my posts deleted in this section and would like to better understand.   Thanks!)

Rob's and Dave's posts above are fine. There were 6 other posts I deleted that didn't belong here. Only questions that are relevant to the sale to the seller and replies by the seller should be in the for sale section.
