Sorry. I do not do videos. I'm old and just don't enjoy doing them.
HAS THE CAR BEEN IN A ACCIDENT? I see no signs of accident damage. the frame looks straight. the sheet metal is not wrinkled up that I see. by law the title has to state it if the car has ever been in a bad accident and it does not.
IS THERE ANY RUST PROBLEMS: I see no rust bubbles in the paint. no swelled places. the sub frame member look good. the bottoms of the floor pans have been replaced and it looks like a couple of other places.
IS IT A MATCHING NUMBERS CAR: No. the engine is now a Pontiac 350 cubic inch. the car was born with a 301. The transmission is now a 4 speed manual. it was not born with it.
ENGINE: Good running engine. no knocks. no rattles. no bad oil leaks. "I will not guarantee you it won't leave a drop of oil on you wife's nice clean floor. its just a old car".
It still has the 4 barrel Quadrijet carburetor and the choke it not great. you have to let the engine warm up.
EXHAUST: Old school glass pac mufflers.
TRANSMISSION: Its a 4 speed manual. the clutch and pressure plate fell good.
REAREND: Its a 10 bolt with a good highway gearing. no whines or growls.
BRAKES: Disc brakes in front. drum brakes in rear. they are power.
STEERING: The car is power steering and drives good.
LIGHTS: The headlights work. tail lights work. brake lights work. dome light is not working.
GAUGES The gas gauge works. the temp works. the oil works. the speedometer works. the tachometer is working.
WIPERS WORK! HORN IS NOT WORKING! CLOCK not working.
Speedometer is not working. reason being it is not hooked up at the
transmission. the shifter linkage is in the way.
INTERIOR: Decent interior. good seats. good door panels. carpet faded a little. seat belts are ugly. the headliner looks new. the dash pad is cracked ( a new molded hard cover can be bought the fits and looks great).
DECALS: Nice and bright and not cracked up.
PAINT: Good looking paint. but not perfect. its just good driver quality. the black has a brilliant shine. no big dents. no rust bubbles.
HOW IS THE PANEL FIT: Good other than the hood. they were junk on the Trans Am. they were too long and heavy and not braced enough. this one has a bow up like a lot of others. The doors fit good. the trunk fits good.
TRADES:
Please no trades. they never work out and are just too hard!

PAPERWORK:
I know what to do! We are just a father/son 2 man operation. but we are a
Tennessee
licensed/bonded car dealer and have sold cars all over the
US
and exported many.
THIS IS NOT AN AUCTION. THIS IS A FIXED PRICE LISTING:
I reserve the right to stop the listing at any time and sale the car “come look”.
I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO STOP THE LISTING AT ANY TIME. THE CAR IS FOR
SALE
ON THE LOCAL MARKET.
WHERE THE CAR IS LOCATED: The car is here at my garage in
Athens .
Tennessee . Athens is in east Tennessee. we are 50 miles south of
Knoxville
and 50 miles north of Chattanooga . Look at a Road Atlas and follow interstate 75 south from
Knoxville . I live one mile and one turn from the interstate exit. My zip code is 37303. The closest large airport is
Knoxville .
Athens
does have a good small airport. but has no commercial flights.
Transport US OR EXPORT
“I like Nations Auto Transport".
They are located in
Kansas City .
Contact: Jim Page his office number is
and his email is jpage shipnat. com
MY AREA CODE FOR TRANSPORT:
The area code for
Athens .
Tennessee
is 37303. I live 1 mile off a major interstate (I-75) and 35 miles south of interstate 40. so transport is usually very fast.
PAYMENT:
I require a $250 deposit for a Buy Now or to hold the car.
I will take paypal for the deposit. but not for full payment.
Option 1: Pay the old school way face to face.
Option 2: Pay by check. I will wait till the check clears. I have had
a fake bank certified check.
Option 3: The safest is to let our banks handle it. my bank is a
member of the
US
Federal Reserve. this is called wire
transfer. And its safe for both of us.
WILL I HOLD THE CAR UNTIL YOU GET HERE TO LOOK OR HAVE IT INSPECTED?
Its good business for both of us the take a deposit. A $250 deposit locks it in for you! I have held too many cars that people promise me they are going to buyand they never show up. their wife won't let them buy it. they can't get a loan or they just back out. Before you drive or fly a long distance you need to make sure the car is not sold. “The way I look at it is until you pay a deposit you're just looking and dreaming”.
INSPECTIONS:
Please come look and be happy.
All inspections are required to be done before the end of the listing.
I listed this car as I see it as a 66 year old car restorer. please come and judge it for your self. I judge the car to my standards. this may not be yours. Paid inspectors have to be very critical to cover their back sides. I understand how hard it is to buy a car without looking. but I think you should come look yourself. I don't like paid inspectors. I like for the person that is buying to inspect for themselves. I think its fine to send a friend to inspect for you . To make it clear. don't hit the buy now button and then inspect. come inspect first!
If you are not registered with ebay motors. I will work with you. "YOU CAN BUY DIRECT".
BOTTOM LINE: Sorry. but my
firm price is $12. 99 I'm asking more
on the local market. The game is not rocket science. ask a price and come down. It's not fun to bargain over the cell phone all day long with people that live 2000 miles away and are not going to buy anyway. My firm price is the Buy Now price. I have sold every car I have ever tried to. so I'm not motivated to be bargained down.
WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO SELL YOU THE VEHICLE WITH-OUT AN INSPECTION YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE A
LOT
OF NERVE AND PLEASE DON'T BE A CRY BABY.

I am ebay varified. that means you can buy ebays buyer protection plan and they will guarantee thats I'm real. they will not guarantee the car.
