Another new guy from MN. MPLS area

[SSuttonMN]

Hi all,
New guy from Brooklyn Center, MN. My first memories include a baby blue Malibu wagon that my father and I lived in when we were homeless. I currently own an 84 Grand Prix with Olds 455 and 86 Cutlass with 74k on it.

G-Bodys are my first love as my first car was an 82 Monte that was a 3rd generation hand me down that my grandparents had bought new. In between my 1st and current there was an 82 malibu wagon. G-Bodys are my self admitted weekness and my wife is fully aware of our love for one another and pretty understanding. The grand prix is for sale currently as a parts car as I've had some title issues with the state that I've owned for 4 years. I have somebody supposedly coming to get it Tuesday but we'll see... :? If this falls through I'll be accepting offers on parts or as whole. FYI- the wheels that are on the car are the stock 14" steelies. Not either set of spokes or chromes. LMK if your interested

does it run? what are you asking as is parts car?

 

[SSuttonMN]

Haven't driven in 2 years. Starter and Torque converter out. Ran/Drove fine last time I had it out.
Make me an offer on it whole. I have a tenative sale pending for p/u on Tuesday. Has missed 1 previous appt so we'll see what happens. Currently car is whole other than some after market gauges are out of the dash.

You might as well yank that 455 out and put it in your Cutlass...
...otherwise if you want to let go of it, I'd be interested in it for my wagon...
