I've owned a couple less-than-practical daily drivers over the years but due to my living situation I've never been in a position to have a dedicated project car until this year. I've always had a soft spot for and longed for a g body of any kind and randomly came across this on FBMP and could not resist. Bought it sight-unseen and a couple days ago I got a ride out to it and drove it 260km back. Ancient "winter" tires, multiple snowy mountain passes, no turn signals, no brake lights, no wipers, but I made it.
It appears to be essentially bone stock. Odo says 59k kms and the seller thinks it's just 59k but I suspect it may be 159k. The 305 still sounds and feels strong and the underside is surprisingly rust free. Immediate plans beyond maintenance and a few fixes are build up the 305 a bit, paint it, and try to find some decent 15x8 wheels.
Photo is from the trip home. It was clean when I picked it up but that doesn't last long in the mountains of BC in the winter.
