I'm gonna be honest - I am SERIOUSLY thinking about buying it. The more I think about it, the more it makes sense in my mind for a few different reasons.
1. I like the 4 eyed cars better than the aero cars pretty much all around. The front end and the dash being the main parts if done right as well as the tail lights.
2. It doesn't look like this one has any body damage whereas my 87 does. Obviously it'll take an inspection to confirm, but that's a little less work in my view.
3. And probably a big reason, it's like the 84 I had that I got rid of when I really didn't want to. Since I gave the ex control of it and her cousin wanted to buy it, AND we had just moved to Atlanta and needed money, I let it go with the agreement that if he were to ever sell it we'd get first dibs. His only goal was to flip it, which is what he did, and it pissed me off. I ended up with the 87 because the ex wanted a convertible again. My intention with it was to yank the power train and install it in her 67, it wasn't meant to be another project. But since it became one, I started acquiring parts. This 83 would be a damned good recipient for those parts and most everything I've bought for the 87 will swap into the 83 with the exception of 2 items.
I mean I have space on my garage pad, it'll just be a chore to get it up and onto it. But once there I can just throw a tarp over it and let it sit for a while until I get back to playing with the cars. Obviously I have a lot going on with the house, so it'll have to wait, but already having it would definitely be a hurdle I wouldn't have to jump if I made the choice later on. And for only $800?!?
