    Tons of people asking about the car, but still no offers. I've had several no shows as well. Someone come look at the car and make me an offer because I would love to see this car get some use.

    For very little effort I could get more than $1,000 just selling a few of the parts off of it. It will sit in my driveway until I have time to swap out the harness before I sell it that cheap.

    Started it and drove it very slowly around the block today. Under load it wont rev past 1500 rpms. If I have time I'm going to keep messing with it to try and fix whatever is going on with it.

    As stated it does not run correctly, so there is no chance it will make it from NJ to CT without problems unless it's on a trailer.

    Thanks. Lots of people interested, but nobody ever shows up to actually see the car. Messed with it a bit more today with no improvement.

    As mentioned it starts and will idle, but has no power under load. If I knew exactly what was wrong with it I would have already fixed it and the price would be much higher.

    Make me an offer that's not a lowball and I'll consider it. I've had plenty of lowball offers, but I don't need to sell the car and I'm not giving it away.

    Do you have any use for the engine? I am looking for a solid no rust shell to do a 20v swap. Does this car qualify as rust free? Doors, floors, towers, rockers, windsheild,hatch,? Im sure it has rust on the rear valence, they all seem to but thats ok. I would be interested for the right price if you wanted to keep/ sell the motor.

    It's as rust free is you're going to get. There is no rot anywhere and very light surface rust starting on a couple of the wear areas, but it's not bad at all. Make me an offer on the shell, but since the motor doesn't run anyway I didn't put a very high value on it.
