Post up some engine bay pics. Also, where is this car from? You did not fill out a location. Where you sell it will have an affect on what you can ask. Just from the pics if there are no underlying faults, I could get $13K for it here. With some carpet clean up/swap and undercarriage detailing/bushing change (if needed) I could get up to $15K but it would take a lot of exposure. I took my black 82 to several Corvette only car shows and sold it within two months at an all Chevy show.

it looks like you'll be able to ask $15K for that if the engine is as clean an original as the rest of the car looks. The under car picture isn't that great, looks like some rust, don't know if it's just surface rust though

Good shoes, a lot of patience, and good connections are required.

Minty fresh! Looks great, drive it and enjoy it. If you decide to sell it the market could be up or down but either way you'll have had some great times with it and that adds something to the value in my mind.

I need to replace to coolant and oil temp sensors... Thats it. seals are all intact in great condition.. The steering wheel was replaced because the foam broke down. I have the original wheel and a new OEM cover for it..Just need to re-wrap it

Thanks! I am telling you...This one is special..

I am almost sure it could win a BG survivor award


So far I have found 2 minor scratchs on it. One paint chip. Very light fadeing on the front and rear plastic.. And a few areas where the carpet is slightly seperated from the backing. Oh and the paint is rubbed off the drivers sill plate from pant legs..Right wjere u would expect it to be..Some minor surface rust here and there from condensation oveer time..This car has never been in the rain.. 1982-1997 Forida... 1997 2013 Indiana

Default Nice color combo

I bought my son an 82 the light blue with dark blue interior with 20,000
miles. I like driving it. Taking it to corvettes at carlisle in august from Ny. It is weird seeing a cloth interior after seeing the leather all the time.I like the cloth interior. Looks comfortable.
