    Very nice car, but the price is steep. Also, given his nearly $10,000 starting price, there should be nothing wrong with the car.

    He's got this in his description:

    "There are some issues that need to be repaired. The fuel gauge recently has begun to read full at all times. The radio power switch failed and has been bypassed. The speakers need replacement. The power antenna is inoperative. There is currently a hidden antenna in the dash that allows for FM reception only. "


    Fuel gauge reading full all the time indicates an open circuit. Could be an easy fix, but maybe not. But for $10,000, the car should not need the repairs described. He should fix them. Even after fixing them, though, it's still overpriced. That car in "car show" condition is worth maybe $7,000 to $8,000. It being the last year for the box-style GM wagons could add a bit to desirability.

    I want my aluminum wheels back, I don't know where they went. And there are way too many things that would keep me from paying that kind of money for it.

    At the top of this list is probably common sense.

    I had the exact same car in maroon and should never have gotten rid of it. Last year for a carburetor v8 from GM. WAY too overpriced though.
