    He makes a point of stating the car is sold "as is" twice. Makes me wonder what issues it has. Could use more photos, especially of the interior, of which there are none. Two of the photos are practically identical.

    On the other hand, for less than $1000, the car doesn't have to answer to much. The fact that it's "on the road" is a positive.

    From a distance this looks like a great buy, absent of course any knowledge of the interior and the "little work" it needs. In addition to posting more pics, offering a bit more info, the seller should re-think the "Drivetrain" description. :tiphat:

    I'm thinking it might have some rust issues. Check out right above the quarter glass top moldings.

    As to the headliner - virtually all of these have that problem, until you replace it.

    Options were sold in packages by 1989 GM. It has cornering lamps and power antenna - that means a power option loaded interior. Beyond that who cares about other possible flaws on a 25 year old car, it's $975. :yup:
