Bring a trailer? No bring a shovel !! 86' Cutlass for sale

Looks like it is sitting in some kind of old implement shed on a farm wherever. No sign that it has been used as a play toy by kids. Agree that the frame and floor panels are likely to be a lost cause BUT, replacement panels for the floor are available from a catalogue and with nothing to save from a collector or numbers matching point of view, this could make a good starting point for a low down hi-po corner killer using an aftermarket chassis. Cost = $$$; alternative would be to find a four door from that year and do a frame switch. Think more than one of those has been done by contributors to this site. Only bright spot here is that it is possible (ROTGLMAO) that the frame has survived and is still in good useable shape. Only one way to find out and that is a road trip with a session of the gopher shuffle (aka the earthworm crawl), complete with some trenching shovel exercise, at the end.

Could make a good episode of Roadkill digging it out and road tripping it as is.

Frame is reinforced as it is packed solid with dirt

I wonder how good the rear end is? Would possibly be worth it just for that if it was still functional. Crosswell is not to terribly far from me.....

I can't believe this is already sold anybody on here buy it?

Yo 565, you serious?? Someone actually threw coin at that Olds? Hope they got the pink to go with unless it was strictly bought for whatever useable parts they could pull from it. I know it weren't me. Have not seen any strange G-bodies sneaking into the yard and it is on the wrong side of the wrong lake to be close enough to day trip for a look; never mind the Covid gestapo. if I was in search mode I wouldn't have to walk more than a block or so 'cause there is an 86-87 Monte SS sitting next to a body shop close by with no plates and possibly for sale. Just no where to put it.
