2 83 eagles and a 79 concord colorado springs
« on: September 30, 2012, 05:19:54 AM »
Dave tipped me off to these three at a local pull and pay so I went and checked em out today. the 79 concord wagon and 83 sedan were basically perfect....The sedan, sadly enough, I used to see driving around not too long ago. the body is amazing. The endcaps, flares, door handles, body panels paint and even the roof are 100% rust free even the metallic paint on the trim looks brand new! The concord was equally as nice. The chrome on the bumpers is still mirror like, the plastic end caps look brand new and even the one piece roof rack is in very nice shape. Of course a couple of  :censored: with a crow bar tore up the front end of the concord and and the interior of the sedan pretty bad, which really ruined my day cuz I've been wanting a set of clear front turn signals  :banghead:  :cussing: ....the other eagle was rough but it was also rust free and has allot of good parts....Oh yeah and another weird thing, the sedan does not have, nor does it appear to ever had a pasanger side mirror  ???

I actually had the sedan posted in eagle sightings. here it is before and after along with the other cars i checked out.

The sedan looks like it still has the key in the trunk lock.  Would it possible for you to grab that key, and the trunk and glove box locks?  Would also be interested in the door locks, if time permits and the key operates them too.

Evidently right side mirrors were optional at some time.  My 83 wagon came without a passenger side mirror.
I'm right 98% of the time, and I don't care about the other 3%.
