Default 1985 Monte SS 23,000 miles from an estate sale.

Picked this up a few days ago from an estate sale with the intent to re-sell. I am not trying to sugar coat anything and the car is in "as bought" condition. I am pricing it to move and offer it to someone here with the feeling that it could be brought up to a higher standard with a week or two of work. Bought new here in southeastern WI by a woman who then sold it to her brother a few years ago. It looks as if he tried to wax it, put new napa exhaust from the converters back and new tires (dated 2011). He has since passed on and I bought it from the son who didn't want to deal with it. It has a clean title in the fathers name and is signed by him before his passing. Not a ton of paperwork except the manual and warranty booklet. The family isn't sure if there is any elsewhere. The tlc I would give it if I have to hold on to it would be, a buff job as paint is original but cloudy here and there and the hand waxing over the years didn't do a super job. Touch up some blackout parts under the trunk lid area, a re-charge as compressor was replaced and compressor kicks in with low pressure switch jumped. Car was factory rust proofed and you can see it under the hood (could be removed if desired.)I have on order a new driver door lock cylinder that will be keyed to match at the chevy dealer when I pick it up. It works but the black cap is missing for reasons unknown. Rims have slight surface rust and one was spray bombed to protect it. I'd maybe re-shoot the wheels if one was to keep these on it. Car runs and drives super, has alot of power and squaks 2nd. Has posi, tilt a/c and working cruise. Interior is mint and would need a detail only. Headliner is tight and non sagging. $8,000 firm as is before I touch it. 414-688-0604

Price seems more than fair.

When the sister sold it to the brother she should have put the 23,000 miles on it no?. That might come back to haunt you. It is a nice car thou. I like it.

This is common on wi titles. Have had many cars with older mileage readings on them. Our registration applications don't ask for current odometer readings.
