No way I'd bid on that <ggg>! These were pretty crappy cars in terms of quality back then. Mine had an oil leak which is why I never changed the oil, just added as needed. Two years ago when my father in law asked the salesman where he bought his new car about trade value, the guy said he wouldn't offer him more than $500 bucks. Worked out in the end though. Best regards, John PS - An example of GM design back then - this car has an all digital dash with all kinds of buttons to change displays into metric if you like, get instant mileage, and so on, but to change the time on the clock, you need a small paper clip, which pushes in a tiny button on the dash, then you initiate a sequence of button pushes to make the change. It's crazy!!
