What do you think

i was looking into buying this car he is asking 2000$ 72Gs minus the gs hood,rear bumper, And the air cleaner which he sold i was thinking offer him 1000-1200. or would you go lower i think he really wants it gone It's a 350 none running by the way. looks like there may be lots of body filler.

By the way i will be parting out my 69 gs in the next few weeks so if you have a parts list or looking for that hard to find 68-69 item let me know

Some pics of the 72 Let me know what you think:TU:

 

Pass on that car. It is too rusty and will require too much work and $$$$.

 

Buy it cheap. As low as he'll go.

 

I wouldn't go $2000, don't think I would even go $1000. Nothing good there. And, if you are still interested in it, verify that it really was a GS.

I agree with Jim. Pass on this one.

 

i also would pass on it, real GS or not.

 

I'd take it for $500. All that rust is what we hillbillies call weight reduction

 

Pass on that car; he took ALL the Goodies off, probably made more off the parts than the balance of the car. (only possible money part is 8 1/2 rear end, check for code LH or LW, those are 3.42 rear codes open and posi)and left a shell with a VIN, and its a 72 350 to boot. Unless you REALLY want to sink Tons of money into it, and guarantee you'll never get even half the money out of it...

 

Thanks for the input i passed

Thanks for the info :TU:

 

If you a want a project go for it. If you want to fix it up and sell it then don't go for it.

 

i was looking for something to work on cruise around town nothing fancy but i want it to look good.. this car was just Closer that a lot of others that i have looked at or seen on the board, i found a 69 Roller that's in primer and rdy to have a motor dropped in for 2k but its in detroit, With the cost of diesel fuel its a lot of money so i am not sure what to do i have a feeling this car will be there for a while i think i will go up there when the snow starts falling and Offer him 450 on take it or leave it..

 

good plan, and $450 would be a fair price IMO

 

Keep your eyes open. More cars are out there. But go ahead and tell the guy that it's not anything special and he took the good parts already but you have $500. He'll take it.

 

I bought a running 91 camaro with a straight body for 500! The wiring was crap and it was nasty interior, but the meth addict too it and I sold it a few months later for a grand! Bought a 72 lark running bucket o rust for 250! Paid 1050 for my current lil gem.

I would give him 300 and say horrible things about while pacing and circling it like a buzzard. He'll cave!

 

Hah walked around it make him feel like he is getting a deal for 300 and he should be lucky

 

There are still deals out there. I got a POS 74 Power wagon for $200. I got my POS skylark for $200. I paid $1000 for my Star Chief and $1700 for my all original running '59 Buick. I also got a '79 Ford for $100.

 

yeah true true but the deals up in the Salt states are rare and everyone thinks there car is worth a million. after looking i noticed that i will have to make a drive some place to find a decent looking car

 

If you hit a bump in the road towing that thing home, yer gonna leave an EPA nightmare in Bondo chunks!!!!uzzled: uzzled:

 

I want all you guys to do the haggling for me when I buy another car. I suck at it! The last car I bought I was able to get it down to $2000 from $2200.

 

Sometimes you just get lucky. The guy wanted $2200 for my Buick. I showed up a few months later and said I have $1500. He said give me $200 more. I said OK.

Sometimes you don't get lucky. I sold my '74 Power Wagon for $725 in hopes to purchase a '77 Club Cab Power Wagon for $1200. The guy said he wouldn't take less than $1800. Now I'm Power Wagonless
