Nope, but it probably rides like a dump truck.

It’s all the dirt in the frunk. Looks ridden hard and put away wet, just not under water.

My guess is they also had a beach house, and never parked it in the surf...Carefully positioned it just above the high tide marker.

I've never seen anything like this.
This car has a next level of corrosion where the tail meets the lid. rear license plate bracket is rusted. dried mud on steering wheel dried mud on the seats mud/mold at the dashboard vent area mud/mold on the inside passenger door sill (A-pillar) mud/mold on driver's inside door pull. carpets pulled up is another sign Mud all over the engine Engine lid hinges are rusty. Look at the mud on the air filter Look at the rust at the bottom of the brake booster Level of oxidation of the engine case.

Inspection sticker resolves to a place on LI. 05 means it could have been any one of a number of storms, although Sandy did the most damage.

Ad says the car has been out of commission since 2005. Here's my guess...
October 5, 2005 — Tropical Storm Tammy's remnants contribute to a rainstorm which turns into the Northeast U.S. flooding of October 2005. Up to 13 inches (325 mm) of rain cause severe flooding throughout the Hudson Valley, killing 10 and causing millions of dollars in damage.[88][89] |

look at the moss on the case! I'm no botanist, but that was in a moist place for a long long time.
![]() looks like it was rolled into a pond or something and it sat there for a while. ![]() t
