If you have a rusted out or wrecked Courier, this might be the car for you. It has one of the nicest, rust free bodies I've ever seen on an old truck this age. The orange paint is original and there are no spots on the truck where it's been repainted or repairs have been made. Even the box is in great undamaged shape. I bought it thinking that I'd be able to put on new brakes and tires, tune it up and end up with a vehicle anyone would be proud to own. But, the seller neglected to mention one little thing: the engine is frozen. I made the mistake of thinking that since the truck looked so well taken care of the engine would naturally be good too. Not true. Now I am done with it. All I want to do is get rid of it and learn a little lesson along the way. I am not in the mind-set of pulling and rebuilding this engine or finding another one and installing it. It's not going to happen. I've already refused a couple of people who would like to have me put in a good engine and repost it for sale. Nope. I'm too old and cranky about the whole thing. As you can see from the pictures, this is a rare find of a Courier in such rust free, non abused shape. One person who called was exploring the possibility of putting a 302 Ford engine in it. They say it can be done. The truck was owned by a couple that got too old to drive it and parked it in 2000. It was under a roof most of the time. The title got eaten by mice so I have a bill of sale. It's been off the books long enough for it to be easy to get a new title, which I was getting ready to do, but not any more. I will not do anything more other than sell it. All shipping and paperwork will be the responsibility of the buyer. I really feel bad about this. I've looked long and hard for a Courier in such good shape, and I hope someone will buy it and do justice to it. If you decide to buy it, details on payment will be worked out at that time.
