SORTA CLOUDY AND 64 AT THE KITCHEN WINDOW. THEY PREDICT 82 FOR THE HIGH TODAY, YESTERDAY IT GOT WARM ENOUGH TO TURN ON THE AC. I APPROVE OF THIS WEATHER :-)

MATT, WHAT IS THE 160 ABOUT, DID I ASK SOMETHING AND THEN FORGET? MY SHORT TERM MEMORY IS GONE TO HELL.

NOTHING ON THE AGENDA TODAY. THINKING ABOUT GETTING THE CARS DETAILED AGAIN, BEEN A WHILE SINCE THEY WERE DONE.

KEEP UP THE FIRE, GURUS---

Good afternoon, bout 75 and overcast here. Been to hip therapy early this morning, then dropped off some goodies to my aunt who is in residential therapy for her hip replacement, couple shops n then home. Missed a tur so pulled into a parking lot to turn around and it’s a hump that I hit wrong and felt my floorboard drag
To-do list lengthens. Need to get plants in this weekend also
Y’all have a good day

Nice car. I'd pay 10,500 for that. He's a little high IMHO.

...in the spirit of helpfulness I went and checked it out and drove it this afternoon... my critique follows. Exterior: Paint is savable just needs some buffing out to bring it back.

The top will need replaced. Headlamps go up and down. There is a crack in the front fascia on passenger side down by brake air inlets. Passenger door does not lock with fob. Chrome on wheels is peeling. Bead blast them and paint black... Windshield has a rock ding and is not the right glass for a HUD. Tires are some Jap stuff on the back and B-Stones on the front.

Interior: both seats will need new foam and at least the lowers recovered. The HUD is not functioning. Door cards are in good shape. Interior is Black. Carpet ok. All gauges are functioning and Radio and AC are working. Car is bone stock.
Does not look like any water has been in the Computer area on passenger side floorboard.

Engine compartment is stock nothing missing that I could tell. I can hear the AC Compressor chattering a bit but still blows cold air. No weird sound from the engine while running. Fresh oil in it. I'm sure all fluids will need changed out. Ran cool while driving it. Needs a pressure monitor sensor in the left rear tire. They said they would get that done.

How does it drive you ask? Damn good actually. Shifts well and pulled hard all the way to 120... God bless those LS1's... 83,483 miles.... no rattles that I could hear... felt solid.. steered straight did not wander around.

I think you are about right at 10,500 dollars.... when you consider what it would take to make it right. Good basic car though in my opinion. Has been on gravel since owned by a farmer.

Make them an offer and see where it goes.... consider I sold a pristine 02 in Mag Red at least 9 years ago for $18K but it had 98 K mileage on it.... Overall..... a bit rough but all fixable and it is Electron Blue Metallic with black top and guts..... I hate to say it but Black wheels would look bitchen on it...... and Black Wheels do not matter to me.....

Hey guys....another cool start, but warmed quite quickly. 90 again this afternoon.

I laid on a coat of the penetrating oil finish on the door. I also gathered up the tools for our trip to KC this weekend. this afternoon my buddy called and needed a bit of help residing his house...wanting me to trim out a couple windows, so I did that.

That's a nice Blue, but over-priced by a bit. Matt, that looks worse in those pictures

Got to go to the football game......
