Sorry i missed bidding on this car you stole that thing.

That is the best 10k spent can't see the value on those going much lower then that even with the miles.

Nice car.

The first thing I did was take off those lens covers - they are retarded. I think I got a good price. No major issues. The battery tray is broken, so I've ordered one of those, and the fixed antenna was missing, so I had to get one of those, too.

The Konis are pretty cool - you can adjust your ride height with them and I had to do that already. When I bought it the car was almost on the ground and I couldn't get it up my driveway without scraping (steep driveway) so I had to raise the height, but it was pretty easy to do with Konis.

I hear you. It was exactly what I was looking for, too - no power options, no t-tops, no leather. I just wish it didn't have A/C or a radio. Oh well.

If I remember correctly the other silver car was originally sold at Carl Black Pontiac in Kennesaw,Ga and is still in this neck of the woods.I believe it's a very low mileage car.

Well, that accounts for the silver ones: One in Iowa, one in Georgia. Thanks Willie, that's pretty cool.

Let's find the other 12 (13?)!
