    87 Grand National 56k miles $8500 Central Iowa

    Kinda what I was thinking. 'Your loss' to those who automatically rule a car out because of the BS administrative rules states use. While I won't sign my blood to it, I really do think this was a stolen car that got the blanket "rebuilt" stamp. The car shows no signs of being wrecked. If it...

    The Value of a Grand National {?}

    Not to be combative, but I think the talk of "sky-high" values today and tomorrow for these cars needs to be put in check for many reasons (most of them external to the car itself). I remember hearing talk 10 years ago of how much these cars would be worth in x years, including today. I'm...

    So my GN's "prior salvage", value?

    Yeah, haha, that would be because I didn't know there was a problem with the title. I thought "hmm, Illinois is stupid, but hey, my Iowa title is clean,and so is the car, so all's well". And I'm sure nobody will want to pay very much for the car, so I'll drive it til it falls apart if I...

    So my GN's "prior salvage", value?

    My state recently changed the look of their registration. While before my registration made no mention of anything, and the title doesn't say a damn thing, now "prior salvage" is front and center on the new registration. When I bought the car in Illinois I think it had "rebuilt" on that...

    I've attached some add'l pics (all taken in an "unclean" state, but oh well), including ones of the blemishes mentioned above. I tried to get a pic of the ding in the passenger door and it won't show on camera. I can get pics of anything specific upon request.

    Selling my car, what should I take?

    Thanks for the replies all. After I made a decision, this is how it worked out yesterday... My dad does not want to see the car go. In his true procrastinating fashion, he didn't say anything until this buyer turned up. But now my dad's said he'd pay $10k for the car, unfortunately I have my...

    Selling my car, what should I take?

    Last fall I decided to part with my car. I'd rather have the cash, and maybe get into something newer, more solid, and "easy fast" down the road (LS1 F-body, 300Z TT). This spring I put flyers up in a few places and made a few local message board posts. I showed the car tonight to a guy, and he...

    How to finance a car that's old and supposedly worthless?

    Most of us know how it works. You go into the bank and tell them the year and model of the car you want. They look into Nada or whatever price book they choose and say that's the max they'll give you. Then they look at their interest chart and see how badly they're going to jack you depending on...

    What should this GN bring and how are they doing in general?

    Great. So the GN + a few g's in the bank isn't going to = Typhoon. So in the near future are they only going to go down more, or is it possible they'll start selling for more once the economy steps up? Just trying to figure out if I should try to get out from under it right now, wait a...
