I guess that's why supercars like this will always be out of my reach. Back in 84-85 People laughed at me and thought I lost my mind when I paid 6 grand for a 70 Ram IV judge with 32,000 miles and bought a Real deal Z16 chevelle for 8 grand. Drove it to work and beat the snot out of it on weekends. Oh well [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif[/img]

I know the car very well.

Here's the orig for sale post in 2007. Looks like it sold in 14hrs.

It appears every owner has tried to make it &quot;nicer&quot; rather than preserving it's originality. If the paint was cleared that's easy to confirm with a polish or fine compound. Still a really nice car....

It was for sale 4-5 auctions ago and it was pretty dirty for 15K miles [mostly original] with a H pipe or some type of aftermarket exhaust if memory serves me correct,I have a pic somewhere . It had around 50-60 pics in the auction at that time. It hasnt been listed with an undercar photo the last 3-4 or so times its been advertised,so maybe its different now? It is a body number off the car my friend has in the for sale section and oddly they are 15K and 20K mile original drivetrain cars from the same dealership. Would be nice for someone to own both. I thought the unrestored engine looked absolutely perfect for the car,rather than the restored engine .
