yeah I saw that one... it doesn't run but seems like it might be a good fixer.

Did you see this 87 GXL with only 37K on it:

I'd be sure to check it out before you do anything, for $450 you have to be suspicious.

that GXL sounds cool, 5000 is a litle steep. I know it has very low mileage tho but it's NA and ewwww burgendy interior, but. ...on the plus side its 37k power everything, and looks sweet on the outside. maybe see if he can come down to 4000 then spend the other G on new interior *lol*

It could have been salvaged (probably.) Has many tickets or violations that was never cleared up, etc. You never know...

I bought my 7 for 450 $'s .

Body is in pretty damn good condtion , Maco paint that is peeling in some spots slightly . Plus it has some electrical problem that has everyone stumped .

It ran 15.79 @ 89 with a crappy launch and a intake filter and wired open 6 ports though .
