a guy who lives around the corner from me offered to sell me his wifes old 83 z28 for 1200 it had 87k miles on it and has been garage kept its entire life.. needs a tune up and some tlc, body is perfect with no dings or dents, could use a new coat of paint but would probably shine pretty nice if it was dusted off and waxed... think this is a good deal? it runs pretty well but needs a battery.. i was going to buy it pull the 305 and put the engine from my 89 in it... my car got hit the other day and the estimate was 1100 just to fix the damage from the accident and more like 3500 to do all the body work and paint the car needs so i was thinking about just buying it and swapping all my parts over.. good price?

 

sounds like a good price to me

 

he sold it yesterday for 400 bux!!!! it was freakin mint cept for a few swirls in the paint.. not a dent or ding on it and since it was always garage kept all the weatherstripping looked like it was new as well as the dash and headliner
