Yeah, altho its a nice car with lowish miles, its not much for performance except for the standard WS6.

Beautiful car...I just can't imagine a 305 TBI being worth that kind of money.
Maybe someday, on a rarity like this one, but not anytime soon. There's a beautiful, 14,000 mile 91 RS that's been for sale back near my hometown for 3 years. Guy won't budge from $12,000. I could see maybe $9,000, because its so perfect and the miles are way low...but at this point I can't see anyone paying premium money for an LO3 for a very long time to come.

I could see it being worth that eventually, but for right now it's a huge stretch of the imagination.

Yup, I'm with everyone else. At $18,500 this guy is just fishing.
Nice car but the motor kills it.

There's 2 things LO3s are good at.
1) Making V8 noises
2) Not throwing check engine lights
All my TPI engines had rough idles and threw codes. My L03 had the highest mileage by far of any of them (120k when sold), and it idled like glass and never threw a code once.
