Strait up, this car is real head turner. It looks better than when it rolled off the line in Van Nuys 20 years ago. It sounds mean, and rides and drives as nice as you'd expect. Fresh PA inspection, good until 08/2010.
Price is $7,000 OBO. This car has enjoyed wonderful Tennessee weather since new. I have only driven it this summer, after my '02 Z28 was wrecked. I want to find it a good home and spare it a PennDOT winter.
PM me back or feel free to call my cell with any questions. 717-713-0006, my name is Collin. Again, no trades will be considered. Thanks for looking.

I dont know if it's just me, but I cant see the pictures?
I can view the pictures. They are being remotely hosted by http://www.flickr.com/ so if you're not seeing them, either there is a network issue between your ISP and flickr, or you're blocking 3rd party images?
BUMP, with change of plans.... I might make a new thread....
Anybody want to buy this car sans motor? Literally, the complete car minus only the engine. Tranny and every other part stays. $5,000????
I think I want this motor as a base for a new 383 project. So really you're buying a beautiful body, perfect interior, and drivetrain. Just power it and you're ready to rock.
