    No A/C. AM-only radio. Yes, about as low-end in options as it was possible to be. He's going to have a hard time getting $7000 for it. Where's the demand?

    I'd be in it for around half that, even with the turd brown color.

    Me too and I sort of like turd brown. I loved my 1980 Malibo 2-dr sedan. It was my tow vehicle behind our motorhome for years. Mine was maroon.

    Nothing says ‘70’s like brown and green. I’ve got a ‘72 LTD in that color. I kinda like it. But I’m not sure if I like it cause it’s brown, or because it’s “period”.

    Ad does not even say if it is a V6 or V8 under the hood? Very base car, I never can get over the rear doors windows not rolling down on the 78-86 4-door/Wagon GM A-body's. Just a stupid design IMO. I owned one and hated that feature.

    Very clean car, but the asking price is ridiculous. That is so basic, I bet it's a V6 only. Barrett Jackson syndrome???

    I had a '79 Cutlass Cruiser Brougham which had electric rear quarter lights in the rear doors so at least it made it easy to get some air in the back from the comfort of the front bench seat.
