MAKE ME AN OFFER! chances are the first offer its SOLD!
ok, my offer = $400.00
no dumbass offers...
and no, there isnt body damage on the driver side. thats the light in the pic. on the ground effects there are chips. hence me stating = "need minor body work"
I'm curious why you pulled the TBI and put in a 350 / 2bbl carb if it only had 59,900 original miles? And completely remove the AC system? Breaks my heart to see that done to a low miliage car......
Good luck with the sale and I hope it finds a good home

When I got the car it had 55,000 original miles on it, now it has 60,900. Never been wrecked. Never been RACED. No dirt roads after 1998, maybe before. Ive taken good care of this car.
Ive done alot to the car. It originally came with a 305 engine and I switched to a 350cid later. 2bbl quadrajet carb, K&N Xstream Airflow intake, new radiator, alternator, flowmaster dumped. The engine has less that 1000 miles on it. After 2003 I started driving a truck.
Exterior: Paint. Shines, but many flaws, could use a little body work and a fresh coat of paint, windshield a chip or 2. Needs tires because the ones on it have dry rotted or started to. Ground effects 1 or 2 chips in the fiberglass.
Interior: No headliner, back seats are in good condition(i never used them, always had them down), needs carpet, front seats could used some upholstery. NO A/C (completely removed), the window tint was a great job, cheap tint. Steering wheel doesn’t have the horn cap, nor does the horn work (not hooked up). Center console isn’t attached but doesn’t have a tear in it like most 82-92s.
Mechaniclly: The starter whines every other start or so. Sounds like it doesnt engage immediatly. As with most older carburated engines you have to prime by pumping the gas a little to start it. It runs really strong. Probly could use a tune up. Yall know as well as I do this car is fast, and could be even faster. If anything itd be a good car to build up with the low mileage and possibly be sold for profit later on.

Ya, I think you would get a lot more for thecar with a 5.0 TPI then a 350 2bbl.
Back in the '80's the frst v8 in my car was a 2bbl 350 and I used to mop the floor with TPI 5.0's...but with emission testing in and around Harris county the car is only worth half what it would be worth with a TPI motor. Most people won't even touch it.
Add no AC and it isn't a car that anyone will want for a daily driver in Houston. If I were you I would try to re-install the AC and TPI...not that my opinion matters.
I didn't think about it having TPI originally, for some reason I was stuck on throttle body injection (TBI)
TBI (L03) came out in 88. It probably wasnt TPI either. Chances are it was an LG4. Are we sure thats a 2bbl? It looks like the front of a CC Q-jet to me.
