Title: 1980 Eagle Coupe Denver
Post by: vangremlin on June 16, 2012, 05:31:27 PM: It was a sad sight to see this beauty in the junkyard. 1980 2 door coupe, 4 speed manual transmission, odometer read 19000 (but probably 119000) miles, no rust, minimal body damage, everthing was there. I picked up a few pieces including the Marschal fog lights (both housings good, missing one lense) and badges and as I was checking out the guy told me it had been a running car that came to them after an impound auction. I sure wish I had found this one before it found its way into the yard :'(

At one time it had the dealer installed air conditioning. I was going to pull that out but at some point the evaporator box had been removed so not much to grab.

What color was the interior?
