Good deal on an 87 5.7L

This car looks like a good deal for anyone looking for a pretty mint, low mile 5.7L with T-Tops.

Been for sale for a while... was at $22k at one point and now down to $14,500...

If it doesn’t sell this winter it’ll probably be back up to $18k in the spring...

I might have to go check this car out...

That looks like a great car! It's a twin to the one I had my senior year of high school in 1993-1994. My interior was lighter gray

Re: Good deal on an 87 5.7L

In person, this car is not mint. A friend of mine previously owned it and when he advertised it, he listed it as not-mint and was honest about its condition. The current owner has not been so forthcoming with the pics and the ad. It spent much of its life outside. The paint while original is worn with clear peel and it had dings everywhere. The drivers seat is ripped, wheels need to be refinished. It's a wonderful car to restore, but not a good value judge for the other survivors with similar miles.

Good to know... what a waste it would have been to go look at it!
