What do you guys think?

http://denver.craigslist.org/car/227748058.html

Its been up for sale for a little while now several times. I was thinking about looking at it and offering like 700 bucks for it.

Would this car have rear disc brakes?

I believe only G92 (optional performance package)cars had rear disk brakes.

That would make a good driver. To bad all of my money is tied up in the Saleen and the RS.

Yeah, I'd definitely have to take a look at it, if I were in the market for a thirdgen, as it looks reasonably straight - but then I like Formulas too...

I'm gonna try to go look at it tonight if I get out of here on time. It does look pretty straight, but I'll post what I find.....

Also after new years, my brother and I are going to sell the Chevelle that we inherited from my grandparents when they died. If you know anyone in the chevelle market, show em these pics. not sure what we will ask, but from the direction the classic car market is going, it will be probably 10K +. Pics can be seen here. 78k original miles and all is completely original. Colorado purchased car and been in family since new. Very beautiful car and an easy resto project, but neither of us really care for chevelles, at least the 67's. If it was a 70SS, then the formula would be out the door.

The formula for sale sounds like it might have front end damage since there's no front view and it needs a hood and maybe bumper.

Wouldnt that make the 2200 price a little bit high?

If that 84 has the G92 and rear disc brakes it would make a nice driver after a paint job.

Of course I would have to bust out my old Qjet books for a refresher.

I never got over to look at it, but he reposted it today with new pics. Looks like the front is pretty jacked but still fixable. Price dropped though...

I don't know why you guys don't just buy my car, sheesh! All it needs is a new place to park and paint. I'm REALLY motivated to get rid of it too, come look at it and make an offer.
