Nice car, bet it's a no sale. The bid is low IMO, and the reserve hasn't been met.

That price does seem to be low. When I bought the Z in my sig, it had 34,150 miles and the dealer wanted $7K. It was in near perfect condition.
BTW-My mom talked them down to $5300. Go Mom!

This car is an '85 though and the 350 didn't make it's debut in an f-body until '87

It is my understanding from the older posts on this board about the California Irocs, that these were only made in 1985.
If I had the money I would buy it!i
