Just goes to show....any Jackass can get into a magazine.

curiousity is getting me...

Sooo... has anyone ever talked to the Owner of this EVOC and received any reasoning whatsoever as to why he's asking such an exhorbitant amount of money for that car?

Does this Owner (or vehicle) show up to any SSP shows or belong to any sites?

I mean, ok, it's a CHP EVOC, it has some interesting history, appears to be in somewhat original shape even after retirement - but, I'm just not seeing anything really spectacular that commands a $50k, $40k, $30k or say even mid to high $20k price tag on that vehicle...

A magazine article & signatures - is that why the price is so high?

Low miles? I guess one can say it has low miles which could play a role in its value, but in the same instance, that can be subject to debate since some would say those miles were not pampered miles.

To me, that car having signatures on it, regardless of who's signatures they are (or what they may or may not represent), should really have no bearing at all to the REALISTIC value at which to sell such a vehicle - am I wrong in saying that?

I think it's a really neat Mustang to definitely own AND preserve - but, at it's current asking price, it's never going to sell (unless there's just that one person who has $50k to burn and does not care what that $50k buys).

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm in no way bashing the Seller or Owner, but, there's a point in time when common sense should prevail... well, one would hope....

And now the corresponding ePay ad....let the comments begin in 5....4....3....2....1.

I'm not going to way in on what something like this is worth. However, I find it interesting when someone lists an expensive car, yet cheaps out by including so poor and few photos and such little info. Seems if you're serious about selling something you could kick in the nominal charge for more photos, maybe include a link to a Photobucket or Fotki site and include some more context on the vehicle and its condition.

I see that he dropped the price by $100!

Attached is the seller's picture of the fiction written on the roof. Wish we had a face-palm smiley here. I heard that this SSP may have been involved in Bonnie & Clyde's capture too, prior to being a UFO escort vehicle in Area 51.

seriously.... it's ANOTHER beat to death EVOC car that the owner is hyping as some sort of famous, most sought after, super rare time machine. It is worth no more than the last one that set the bar at 15k and some change.

The writing on the roof is THIS sellers version of hype/rumor/BS that he is hoping will cause somebody to buy it.

Hype + fabricated documentation and rumor + misinformation = 50,000.00

greed greed greed greed greed greed.......gotta hit a big lick on this one.

where did I put my mop - n - glow ????

I sent him a message asking him to explain how a 250.00 signature from Carroll Shelby could possibly add to the value of a car he never had ANYTHING to do with. I also thanked him for taking the bullet hole stickers off the rear quarter panel.

I don't think he will like my message... but I don't really care.

I am. He is greedy idiot that is lying about something he is trying to sell. His add ought to be cancelled.

He is ANOTHER embarassment to this hobby and we already have enough of them running around as it is.

That is some goodness right there!

SERIOUSLY GUYS YOU GOT TO LAUGH AT THE SELLER. HES LIKE A SNAKE OIL SALESMAN FROM THE OLD WEST, REINVENTS HIS CAR EVERY TIME HE ATTEMPTS TO SELL IT. NEXT YOU WILL SEE THE CLAIM THAT MARILYN MONROE WENT A LAP AROUND THE TRACK IN THE CAR. ITS A SAD THING TO SEE A CAR WITH THE LAW ENFORCEMENT HISTORY THAT IT HAS TO BE PIMPED OUT LIKE THAT. NOW CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG BUT THE LAST EVOC CAR I SAW FOR SALE FROM CHP (CROWN VICTORIA) WAS MARKED AS NON STREET LEGAL AND UNREGISTERABLE. WAS THAT POLICY IN EFFECT WHEN THIS CAR WAS SOLD. YOU GOT TO WONDER WHAT ELSE IS NOT BEING SAID.

No, this car was sold long before that policy which was instituted with the sale of the 2002 EVOC Camaros.
