That car is not even worth "free" by the sound of it.  A friend bought a
Mondial coupe in very nice condition, (and it actually ran) for $11k.
Basically what you are describing is a car that needs, well, EVERYTHING!

New top, new leather, new paint, get the engine running...yadda
yadda.....$$$$$$$$$

Hi,

Been reading the list for 8+ years but have never posted.  I went to look at
a 1985 Mondial Cab today that was advertised as not running.  The body was
ok, some weird small dents on the drivers side by where the top mounts and
some rust spots starting to show.  The paint on the car was fair to poor,
the top could have been better, the leather was cracking, the center console
was lifting by the switches.  The car did turn over but it did not fire.
Could not smell any gas.  The seller has changed plugs, fuel filter, fuel
pump (said he spent $1300 on parts) but could not get it started.  It has
been sitting for at least this summer.  The seller stated that the car ran
fine last year until it was parked and after winter (stored outside but
covered) it would start then quit.  The car is in Mass and has not had an
inspection since 2003.  Carfax shows no accidents but does show evidence of
mileage rollback.  It went from 67,000 in 1997 to 36,000 in 1999 when sold
at auction.  Currently is says 47,000.  So with all the red flags waving and
since it wont start I cant get it to a ghetto,  what do you think this car
is worth?  He is asking 15k  I was thinking 8k at the most.  I wanted to get
a project car (looking for a 308/328) but this one seems to need more work
then I want to throw in to it (plus money). 

thanks

rich
