There's no mention of buck tags.

It's a $500 car. The owner should be lucky to get $1,200 just because it's a SSP. He definitely doesn't have to worry about someone buying it to hotrod. Especially as high as he is on the price.

This is one of those cars where I think it only has value to someone specifically looking for a 1986 RCMP SSP. Your buying its history and identifying numbers/tags.

I'd like to see someone here get it for a reasonable price that's actually going to restore it as a RCMP SSP.

It would be interesting to see someone buy it and follow the build to see how much money ends up going it to it to put it back in to nice shape.
I have to agree...I think it needs to be saved, but it'll have to be by the right person. AOD turns alot of people off, plus it'll need a ton of work.
