    LOCATION: New Ringgold, PA 17960

    I've had this up on Craigslist for a little while and had plenty of tire kickers. Figured I would post up here. Back in February, I decided to buy an '08 Cadillac STS as a DD so that means this project got the brakes and I'm tired of neglecting it. Plenty of money, time, and parts invested. When I bought the car it had all kinds of issues. Not really looking to get my money back, just selling it for what I think it's worth. It's a reliable car with upgraded parts and a few flaws. Would make a great top swap candidate which was my goal for the car.

    The only notable issues that I can think of is the exhaust is a little louder than it should be and there must be an air bubble in the coolant system that I can't find, because the temp gauge will fluctuate a bit but doesn't overheat.

    1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GT

    185000 miles, supposedly about 110k on motor (previous owner swapped with a junkyard motor but did not provide paperwork)
    Black paint, is far from the best
    Black leather interior
    Interior isn't perfect
    GTP Radiator
    New upper/lower radiator hoses
    GTP transmission swap (shifts smooth)
    New axles, seals, filters, fluids, etc
    New plugs and wires
    New performance rotors and pads
    Painted black stock 5 spoke wheels and cleared (rattle can)
    Aftermarket CD player
    Aftermarket Amp/Sub in trunk
    All BRAND new brake lines
    New headlights and turn signals
    BRAND new tires
    Fresh inspection (no emissions in my county)
    New fuel pump

    The car was going to be a GTP swap. I have been collecting top swap parts, and if you pay what I am asking, you can have them. (Ported supercharger with silencer holes filled in, stock pulley, fuel injectors and fuel rails). Otherwise, the car rides nice and I have put a few thousand miles on it and 2 oil changes in the time I had it.

    I have it listed locally for $2500. $2400 on Craigslist. Make an offer I can't refuse.

    Edit- I forgot to mention that I have HUD swap parts (projector, switch, and trim piece) and a 98+ GT DIC that will be going with the car unless I happen to find a buyer for them. The blower is available for an additional cost.

    TTT - Last fall (2013) I went to move the car and it started pouring white smoke from the exhaust. Sadly, it appears it blew a head gasket and was sitting ever since. I was going to proceed with a GTP swap until this happened and I lost total motivation. Retired the caddy and picked up a '13 Cruze Eco M6 as my DD. I love this GP, but I hate to see it sit. The cost of the N/A 3.8 is low enough that I've been considering swapping in a motor versus replacing head gaskets.

    For $1250, come and get it and I'll throw in all the misc accessories that were planned for the car. I took out the sub/amp but the wiring is still there. It'll need a battery but otherwise complete. Located in New Ringgold, PA 17960.
