OK so here is the story on the car - it is a local Kentucky car, last registered in 1999 when the engine developed a knock and was parked. Car has been sitting since then. I was originaly looking for a non-TTop f-body to do an LS1 swap and take to the LSX fest in Bowling Green to throw around the track. After buying the car 4 years ago, I discovered it is something of a rarity with the WS6 option and decided not to modify the car. I have since then done the LS1 swap in a 81 Camaro and have 4 other cars waiting restoration. Being a little realistic rather than let it sit for 10 years until I get around to it I have decided to let it go. This car is worth the restoration effort and expense and is a fairly complete car and is all original. Originally liveried in the attractive Nocturn Blue and Light Blue Interior with Blue Decals - it is a very attractive color combination. WS6 - First year for the four wheel disc brake option, comes with the WS6 bigger swaybars and 8 inch wide Snowflake wheels. Standard T/A's had smaller sway bars and 7 inch wheels. All 4 Snowflakes are in good shape with no rash or dings. Hood - rusted out - the worst part on the car - I have another straight clean hood to go with it. Engine/trans - has been sitting for 13+ years and have not tried to start it - known to have a rod knock it needs a complete rebuild. Interior - Rather nice console with no burns and only a very small crack next to shifter. Seats had covers on them but this car has been sitting fore a long time and needs a full interior, dash pad etc. Gauge panel is complete. The column is tilt and I have keys to vehicle. Front Fenders - Rust at the bottom - needs patching. Doors - Fairly solid, drivers door does have some surface rust next to weatherstripping on bottom edge. Outer door handles are broken. Rocker panels - Drivers side appears solid, passenger side must be replaced. Floor pans - solid except for drivers toe board, passengers has some surface rust and a chunk of sealer has fallen out. Quarters - appear solid and rust free. Decklid - rust hole next to spoiler. Trunk - Mostly solid with rust at the back part on one side. Subframe/Rear rails - appear solid with surface rust only. Rear Valance - Inner needs to be replaced and outer does have some rust at bottom. Other than the rust issues it would be a rather straight forward restoration. On the Camaro we just did we replaced both full floors, drivers rocker, trunk and inner and outer rear valance on a rotisserie and sheetmetal was under $500. Typically most T/A's in this price range are incomplete or partially stripped. Please check your eBay advanced search for completed auctions to see what these are actually selling for. There are a lot of regular non WS6 T/A's that go in the 5-8000 range and are driveable but in truth need a complete restoration to be really nice. Odometer may not reflect actual mileage.
