The problem with those is rust holes preventing me from getting a sticker.

Here's one. It's even local.

Not that it should matter, but just to discuss:

I like:
The Lexus, the 91 Lumina Z34, the 91 Berretta, and the Riviera (you don't see these every day, and low miles)

The SHO gets an honorable mention. I know they were cool in the day, but as an old used Ford with a special engine, these are probably a nightmare to own now.

Also, that 99 Monte Carlo is not a real Monte Carlo. In my mind they don't really even exist, so it would be weird if you bought a car that doesn't exist...

Too bad they did stupid stuff to the Z-24. The rims and exhaust specifically, otherwise I would have supported that. I guess they have the original rims, definitely doesn't look as awesome as an 89...

How about this:

Not the best winter car... but, a G-body for 2K.

Here is a 96 Cutlass (You posted a Monte and Lumina so maybe this is in the ballpark?)

Some interesting Pontiacs:

http://providence.craigslist.org/cto/5847528652.html - Conversion??? If this works it is probably pretty quick...
http://providence.craigslist.org/cto/5840850223.html - runs a little hot in the summer days, No AC, perfect for winter...

And an Oldsmobile Delta 88!!!

Cadillac:
Don't you have one of these?
http://providence.craigslist.org/cto/5903612827.html - 106K miles, $1750, 5.7. Kevin, if Adam doesn't buy this maybe you should...

That one has the L05 TBI engine. So cheap..... Kevin, you've always wanted an L05 Fleetwood.

I like that. Remember that is not a w-body.

A Delta 88 with crank windows? Now I've seen everything.

Would that have a 700R4 or a 200-4R? I guess it is BOP so automatically 200?

Damn that is a real survivor. Hopefully it doesn't end up at the junkyard. This is the kind of thing that would make an interesting LS swap candidate as long as you did it Sloppy style, not car-show style.
