JamesR Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Oh, that's nice! It almost rivals TexRiv_63's black example. Very cool. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingrudy Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Beautiful car at a fair price. Never seen a Starfire in this color, this car has the lines to pull it off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexRiv_63 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Nice looking car. some nits: seats look like vinyl not leather, but done well. Factory hard plastic / aluminum floor mats missing. Check all the floors, inner fenders and frame for rust. Hope the original wheels and caps are included. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Would like to see a full picture of the rear showing the bumper and trunk lid and a few less shots of the interior. Nice car and my favorite year of the Starfire but I don't find these colors very attractive. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketraider Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Upgrades. 🙄 I wonder if the transmission linkage is dialed in for that Edelbrock carb. I see a whole lot of corrective work needed underhood too that for the asking price shouldn't need to be done. Colors are ok but saddle tan interior on a Starfire has never done much for me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the year. 61-2 seat facings were all leather, 63 leather inserts with vinyl bolsters, 64 leather bolsters with vinyl inserts, 65 reversed that, 66 were all vinyl. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmTee Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 This is the other GM car that shared the unique concave back-glass with the '63/'64 Pontiac Grand Prix. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexRiv_63 Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 Strange thought process - I have a nice but low content car, maybe it will sell faster if I INCREASE the price... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearheadengineer Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I’m curious about the “upgraded drum brakes”. What could be upgraded? I see a single circuit master cylinder. Are there wider/larger drum/shoe options available for this? Maybe the friction material? Ventilated backing plates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a friend who owned a gun shop/pawn shop downtown for years. If he had a gun in the case that didn't sell in a month or so, he would jack the price, and it'd be gone in a week. I agree, strange thought process, but apparently, it worked for him. Only a few cars, I'd want other than my 65 Riviera, but the Starfires are on that short list for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
