This Citation is in better shape than any I've seen. Less than 78k miles. It has only had 2 previous owners. The first was an old woman. She lived in Ohio and due to the snow/road salt, she had a protective covering sprayed under the car. The spray was supposed to last about 5-7 years, but she had it sprayed every year... the result: NO RUST EVER

The second owner was her grand daughter. She drove it in college. Both of them drove alone about 99% of the time, so the interior is in perfect condition. The back seat is sooooo comfortable. And we all know how important the back seat is.

So when she finished with the car, it came to rest in her father's driveway. Her father just happens to be my dad's boss. So $400 and the car was mine.

It could only have been fate.

nice shine paint looks great. i have 1980 badly faded but fairly clean 1980 citation 2.5L carb "iron duke" auto 2dr hatchback. she needs floor and some minor sandblasting. has minor body rust all fixable. the car will never see any more salt as long as i own her, oh yeah the kicker i paid 50 bucks for the car and did a simple tune up (plugs, wires and a choke pull off) and now it purrs like a kitten
