    Wow! This guy has a four post lift outside. I’d be a little nervous about walking underneath it after the weather has taken it’s toll

    That Firethorne Red (I think...) is a pretty good color for these. Unfortunately, it's got a 301......

    I’ve never driven one with a 301. Are they so bad that they are worse than the 307 olds slug motor in the B wagons from 86 up?

    Doesn't look like Firethorn Red was available in 1978. Looks more like Laredo Brown.

    Doesn't seem like the greatest section to advertise a car with an already limited market in. Ads must be free.

    Might be one of those guys who wants to keep 'trading up', eventually owning a house or something. Who knows? He might have started with a box of paper clips.
