This car is the perfect cruiser! The complete drivetrain-390 engine, C-6 auto trans, rear end, suspension -has just been completely gone through, and is in perfect running condition. The rims are the perfect complement to the car- American racing 5 spoke with Zexius low profile 16" tires.
To complete the car, it's a simple matter of replacing the seat covers, carpet, and paint- the hard mechanical stuff has already been done!. The paint is good, perfect for a driver, but by no means is it show quality.
Call me at 253-377-0649 with your questions/to make me an reasonable offer- you may be surprised! I'm asking $6000, and am very receptive to offers......

What engine/tranny?

Any rust in the trunk or in front of the rear tires?

That is a nice looking cruiser! Well worth the price. Classics are going up in price and the ones you can drive every day make it even better!

I'm not really too sure (I'm a turbo Buick guy at heart)- but I'll find out.

Per the original owner- yes.
