Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

thanks, posting pics directly from my phone doesn't work to well.

Driving home from school friday I saw a 91 or 92 firebird convertible on the road. Saw it too late to grab a pic

I'd love to have that car. That is almost exactly what I have been looking for. Too bad all these cars for sale are on the East Coast.

I would but I certainly don't need another project, nor do I have room for it! I told him about the classifieds section here and he said he would look into it.

Spotted another one! Rough, but it looks to be an 89-90 IROC with the 15" IROC wheels. Sorry about the picture quality, I had to zoom way in...

Guess this isn't technically a parking lot, but this car was parked on a lot. Looks pretty rough, but complete. In Linden, NC.

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Appears that it was a nice car until it was parked in a swamp. Body was very straight except for the dent in the nose. Thankfully no one was around for me to ask how much they wanted for it. Lol

Saw this young kid messing with his car today in Stedman, NC. Told him about thirdgen.org. He had no clue as to what a 3rd gen was. Gave him a brief history lesson and he was logging in as I was leaving. Future member perhaps? Maybe we can convince him that his spoiler is blasphemous!

Barn find Z03 Z28, 1 of 100 with the LB9/MK6 combo.

Stopped driving/registering it in 1996 and parked it - 5,100 miles!

The problem is I like to drive them so owning something with mileage that low is really wasted.

Just fire that puppy up and enjoy it, the heck with the mileage. Of course, be prepared to fix all the leaks and hoses after about a 100 mile cruise....(from sitting so long)

I understand that completely. I would have to drive it myself. Since spring has arrived I'm starting to see more and more cars. But to be honest, some of the prices I'm seeing are ridiculous. Saw a descent 51k 89 iRoc online right now in nice original shape but he wants 17k for the car cash price, and it needs paint, and isn't the best optioned car out there though not bad. There is no telling what they would want for that one...if they know what they have that is...

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

I doubt they know exactly how special it is, but I expect it won't be cheap. I have no problem passing it up if he's unrealistic.

Probably wouldn't be a problem or effect the value much if I put less than 900 miles on it.

Probably wouldn't be a problem or effect the value much if I put less than 900 miles on it.
I would be too tempted to disconnect the speedo... I better stick to my scrap iron...LOL

Saw this one for sale the other day here in El Paso. The dawn light makes the hugger orange appear to be red. A brief walk around shows the car to be straight with fresh paint. Sticker claims to have a fresh rebuild on the 305 tbi. Owner is asking $9,000!!!

The photo corrects itself after you click on it twice.
Thats actually a good looking car. Not my favorite paint scheme on a big block hood, but I love the color. 9k is just that guy trying to get back some of what he has in it. I dont blame him. Go for the kids who just have to have it FIRST...lol

I agree, a seller can't go up in price while negotiating. I'm sure they will sell it here, maybe not for asking price, but it will sell. It looks pretty well done from what I saw.

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

dragged mine out of the garage today for a spring cleaning and took my wife to a flea market in Bowling Green KY. Saw a couple of cars along the way... Im gonna get arrested doing this one of these days...lol











Whoever put that spoiler on it was smoking somethin. Figured this one had roaches in the ash tray, so I tried to take a shot of the interior. Photo wouldnt take. No roaches, but MAN was it ever rough!
