Looking to do some work on your car, but don't want to be stranded throughout the process? Or maybe you just had an accident and need to pick up something cheap for in the meantime till you can get some money together?

Well if this sounds like what you might be looking for, maybe I can help you out!

'93 Ford Escort- 4 door, 131,100 miles, burgundy

My name is Tami and I was an out of state student at NCSU from Michigan and I'm finishing up here at the end of the month. I've been offered a job in Alaska starting in August, so a- I will no longer need my car since I can't take it and b- I don't know if it could make a 1,000 mile drive strait through the mountains to Michigan where I'm flying out of to Alaska.

And here's the skiny on the car... its not amazing.

- It's front end was messed up a bit on the driver's side front corner before I got it.
- Coolant leak
- Some rust
- Tiny tiny engine
- Automatic Transmission
- Working air conditioning! YAY!
- Manual windows, locks, etc
- airbags

Anyway, if you'd like to see some photos, drop me a message. This has been the perfect car for me running around Raleigh the last year and extremely reliable. It has a new alternator and timing belt that I've had put in during the last year. Also, as a bonus, it only takes like $35 bucks to fill the tank!

As for price details, I don't want much, just enough to cover the rental truck I'm using to get my stuff home and knowing that this car is going to someone who needs it! I'd like $650, but I'd be willing to take a best offer if we can for sure make up our minds about the deal by the 21st and agree for pick up/ drop off of the car for either the 26th or 27th since that's when I'm picking up the rental and I need the car till then.

Cheers and feel free to let me know if you have any questions!

I hope this car will be able to live on at least another couple years doing what it does best, getting poor college students around when they need it most!

There's one bad photo up in my gallery in memory of a terrible night parking, but I'll take more later today and put them up.
