I bought a nice tidy 302 XB Fairmont for 800 bucks a little over 10 years ago for a runaround. Of course I treated it like **** and just abandoned it after it had served its purpose Still have feelings of guilt now when I think about the condition I let it get to. I thought I would always be able to pick up a clean V8 XB for a few hundred.

I'm not sure what it sold for, but it's back on the market:

Pretty much, a mate looking to buy an XA GT for 50 and has found nothing decent in 3 months.
IMO i think you need $60K to buy nice XA GT in a nice combo. especially a 4 speed car with a big port engine etc. I'd not sell for less when an XY with the same gear goes for $100+ I'm talking premium combos though like lime glaze, cosmic, yelow, calypso...etc |
