Talked to the guy a little bit. Claims interior is good. MIL is on. Says it's do to O2 sensor. And the WSS wires are broke. I assume the ABS light is on. I'm thinking, worse case scenario it needs a cat, and a couple hubs. Maybe WSS wire harness ends. I could probably fix the trans through the wheel well with leftover parts I have on hand.

KBB puts it at $1400 in fair condition. So, is it worth the hassle?

if yo can get it for under 500 you maybe ok for a flip, its needs a tranny and depends on the rest of the cars over all condition.

$500 max, or walk away.

If you are trying to make money, I don't think you'd make much if anything.

Too old and too many miles.

It would have to be newer and less miles so you could try and sell it for like $3,000 instead of $1500-2000.

I could definitely get it for $500. I'd have to rent a car dolly, so there's -$50 at least.

Forgot to mention it's a GTP. So that adds a little to the value.

Normally I would 100% agree with you, but there are so many..... I'll call them "limited budget" people. There's a real market for sub $1500 cars here.

I appreciate the input. Keep it coming.

For a cost comparison, I picked this up today for $250

Waiting for the battery to charge to see what happens when I fire it up...

oils look good, kinda looks like a LIM leak...

Hope this helps...

That does help. Looks like I would have to pay way under scrap price to even make it worth while.

Passenger door panel says Grand Prix GT.
Drivers side was photochopped poorly. I am willing to bet this car is in scrap condition if they went through the trouble to do a bad photochop job on the one side of the car, its so bad it looks like they used paint.
