I'll give you a call later today between meetings. I got your number from the PM.

Thanks!

After enjoying my Buick for the last few years, and meeting (or re-meeting) a bunch of great folks along the way, it's time to sell my GN. With two little ones at home and a new (time-consuming) job, I don't have enough opportunity to take it out and have fun.

Asking $25,000. Lots of details below, pics coming.

I'll buy it 5014149144 Willie
 
Not for sale, decided to keep the car and enjoy it (along with some new modifications!).
 
When I posted this, 2 years ago, that seemed like a fair price based on similar cars' listings.

Now though, I wouldn't let it go for double that. Since this post its got engine work, new heads, roller cam, full suspension, and some other stuff. I also finally have some time to drive it so no plans to sell anytime soon.

Appreciate all the interest, but it's not for sale now.

How much 5014149144 willie
 
Not for sale. Dunno how to else to say it. I don't need the money and I'm enjoying the car.

If you want it that badly, how about $250k?
 
Some advice for the new guy:
Willie, suggest you read the prior posts before posting.
Look at the dates, too. Some of the threads are yrs old.
