If his is worth 4k mine is worth at least 15k

Prices are going up but some people are just not reasonable or realistic.

Oh come on now, I just have a bunch of hand made junk hacked together. If it runs it will be a miracle.

I couldn't even really find one locally to make fun of...but I found this one that I would almost consider as a side beater for $3-3.5K

EDIT:

How's this for a badass engine swap

I wanted to do that swap to a patina'ed fairlane I have done back, even have 2 SVOs and Thunder chicken for all the goods.


See that 85 is priced fair. I have considered selling my coupe but straight coupes are hard to come by here.

That black '85 seems like a pretty good deal, especially if its truely rust free in the NE. As for the original car posted, no way in hell. After finding rust in my frame rail with the rest of my car being clean, I am willing to bet that car has bigger problems.

I've never seen a hatch rust like that. Typically, it's down by the bottom of the window. If that can get 4k we're all going to be ballers.
