The best looking F body out there

http://www.mcsmk8.com/89-GTAB/89-GTA.HTM

This is the best looking F body I've seen by a long shot. Under 1000 miles in almost 25 years. Just curious - what do you guys think its worth? What do you think it would be worth in another 25 years?

Re: The best looking F body out there

A truly amazing situation, this is Barrett-Jackson type territory...

Unless I missed it, I didn't find a price, which means it ain't gonna
be cheap. I would GUESS $20K minimum, and not surprised if
closer to $30K.

As far as an investment for another 25 years, this would probably
not be a good ROI. This type of thing is for eccentrics, who can
afford to indulge their eccentricities.

Good find though...

Re: The best looking F body out there

Wow, I have to agree. That is showroom finish there. How the heck did they get the paint to stay so clean? GM paint was garbage during the late 80s and early 90s. My 1989 formula 350 was black and I took such care of it. But alas the clear coat dulled anyway the paint turned to crap. I was so pissed at GM for that.

Re: The best looking F body out there

Anyone know that Wheat Thins commercial where that guy sits up late in his kitchen guarding his Wheat Thins from "the next door neighbor, or Bigfoot."? That's exactly what I would do if I owned this car. I'd be a nervous wreck! Stay up late in my garage, shotgun across my lap, microfiber cloth in my hand, staring at that beauty through night vision goggles.
It'd be worth it.

True. Maybe change it to "Best Looking Firebird". That original 500 mile 1985 Camaro pulled out of a trailer takes the whole cake.
