Save a photo onto your computer, or post a photo here? Or both?
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Very curious thing going on with the ignition key.
Still can't figure out how to capture a pic
Not bad shape, key is jacked and stuck in ignition

Plan on $400 to fix that. :evil:

My 2005 would get stuck in ignition when I first got it. I pulled the interlock cable toward the column lock and tied it down with a piece of solid aluminum wire. No more key stuck in ignition. The plastic jacket on the interlock cable shrinks as it ages. Basically the same problem as the drive cables in power seats.

The big problem I see is the key transponder is not attached to the key. Not a deal killer IF they have the transponder.

For some reason their pics won't compute on my end; Steve may be doing some screenshot VooDoo that also escapes me. Posted a pic from the 444 C/L ad, though.

I figured if it could be had cheap, I would put it under the pin oak and play with it at my leisure. Hammered for $1100, plus about $300 in fees - not to mention shipping. At this point my new toys can't be so dear.

'67 122, a bit skeptical about the 'S' claim.

Responsible Citizen has the popular corrrigated oil catch-mat under.
Pretty big number for an auto, and about the paint mismatch ...

38k is very low miles indeed, "possible the lowest mileage 850 in the USA" to quote the over-used phrase. If all that service was done by the dealer (or by a shop but with the right parts, which is essentially never happens) then it may be worth the big ask. If done with aftermarket then watch out, would just be buying a bundle of upcoming service.
