may be interested

nice car! just a few questions, does every thing work. AC Cruise ect. I would need car to be complete , no projects once so ever. Is there any rust in the door seams or t-top area. Any rust at all? Is the dash cracked or warped in any way, Is there a cage installed? What would be the next upgrade you would do if you kept the car?
 
Beautiful car and priced right good luck with the sale but if I was you I would keep it!
 
I checked & drove this car out last weekend. Just wanted to say its a really clean car. Great paint. Looks awesome.

I drove it, although I never floored it, (I don't beat on others cars,) this thing flat out flies!! With drag radials, as soon as I got on the throttle, the tires broke loose & it pulled like a freight train! Matter of fact, as I pulled to the stop light, a guy in a van pulled along side & yelled "awesome car" & gave me a thumbs up.
If you are looking for a head turning, great looking & fast T Top GN, this is it. I am looking at mostly t type cars & had a little less to spend so I didnt buy but this is a really nice looking car. Chris is a really good guy too. GLWS.

I answered via PM but here is my response for everyone's benefit.

The t-top rails do have a pretty fair amount of rust. The previous owner had applied a heavy amount of silicon to the area to get it sealed. I thought it looked like crap so I ripped it out and put in new weatherstripping but did not add any additional sealant to prevent leaking. I have no plans to ever let the car see water so it was not a worry of mine.

I did not paint the car so I don't know what the body was like. I believe there are some patch panels on the bottoms of each door and I do not see any rust anywhere besides in the ttop rails.

I believe it is still the stock rear with factory gear ratio. I recently had the rear serviced with Royal Purple synthetic oil and a double dose of posi additive. Mechanic said the old oil was nice and clean (no metal).

No cage is in the car. The next upgrade would probably be a 2nd nozzle for the alky kit and maybe some bigger injectors. A 10.80 car is plenty fast for me on the street so I have never really investigated more engine mods.
