Bleach Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Perhaps now it's found. It needs to be saved. Luckily the desert isn't too hard on the hard parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mt65riv Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Looks like it's prime restoration material, regardless of what's missing. Are you picking it up? If it is a GS, save it!Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest carlbraun Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Cool picture...small emblem car? Ship it to the midwest, I`ll make a car from it!Tom MooneyThe car is a large emblem GS as it was built the 2nd week of February. The car is fairly straight with the exception of a small rust blister on the driver's floor. I couldnt get into the trunk but it looked great from under the car. THe original posi was there as is most of the exterior trim including the lower rocker ribbed trim pieces. THe original LOF date coded glass is in the car and the wheels appear to be date code correct. Tough to get under the car as the tires were pretty flat but I could see a complete exhaust (non stock) system. The owner also has a pretty nice rear bumper and a re-chromed front bumper set and a set of California black plates too.LOTS of ugly maroon paint on this car but peeking down under the rockers you can see nice Champagne Gold paint (code T),Anyone can PM me for more info, pics and phone number of seller.

lrlforfun Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 OK Riviera People: I spoke to the gentleman who's selling the car. No motor or transmission, rough custom interior, laying in the field for quite some time. Asking $2200. Perhaps Mario from Rancho Cucumonga might want it? Maybe in 10 years it might be worth putting together, just not now. Mitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rob J Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Did anybody end up buying this car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest carlbraun Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I dont think the car was sold. When I met with the owner to look over the car he was convinced he was "giving the car away" at $2200. This would be a great car if someone in the midwest needed a donor body for a rusted out GS car. It would be a good buy if it had a BS code transmission or ANY paperwork on the car but no dice.If you factor in the parts that are with the car it may be worth $1500. He said he would keep it and restore it himself rather than sell it for that cheap....yeah, OK...I've heard that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
