ooh yeah those wheels do kinda look good, i wonder how much it throws the speedo off?
 
I think $15k is fair it looks pretty good to me, but why did it need a respray at 10k miles at all????

What drives me crazy about to the moon SC pricing is if you ever wanted to drive it, even just to church on Sunday as some collectors vocally only ever do, the ARC shocks won’t be available and the ABS won’t be repairable. Making due with regular shocks and conventional brakes is fine for us who got into these cars for like $5,000 or less, but a time capsule low mile pure example of the breed spared no expense on the purchase? It’s either going to be fully original and bricked, or retrofitted and effectively as butchered as the rest of our worthless heaps 😆

A huge amount of work and time/money has been put into my Cougar. If I sold it, it would probably go for about half of what my stock V6 manual firebird would fetch on the used market :facepalm:
 
I like this, but not at that price. Could go smaller on the wheel diameter. I think those look too big for this car. I feel like 18's would be plenty. All that money and a bypassed heater core? Eh, must have super cold A/C then ;)

3800, analog dash. I feel like you could do a lot worse for $8k these days. I think I would drive it.

Those wheels are atrocious. Honestly I really just plain don’t like classic muscle cars on anything larger than 15s. I can give 17s a pass for a purposeful autocross setup but that? No, yuck.

Not a fan of the painted rear bumper either. Otherwise it’s very nice, I like the 70 Judge the most of the 68-72 A bodies

The Dustbuster minivans were the coolest looking minivans ever. Oddly enough I was behind the Olds one about a month ago with a vanity plate that seemed possibly antisemitic😆

I don't mind larger wheels on older cars as long as it is for a purpose. Too often I see 18" wheels and then they have whatever aftermarket kit they got so they can say they have disc brakes with 9" rotors. The wheels on the Pontiac just look goofy to me.

I still don't know how they got those stripes on straight all the way around those Silhouettes. That had to add a ton of time to assembly. I'd be on the line stressing out about making them crooked.

Maybe Jehovah’s Witnesses? It would fit the stereotype to see one of those parked in a busy neighborhood, and a bunch of door knockers getting out of it.

I agree. The aesthetics from the factory from that period aren’t going to be topped IMO, so in my mind if it’s to be deviated from it better be for a purpose(fit bigger brakes, lower profile wider tires, be lighter). 17” is fine, you can accomplish all those without jacking the unsprung weight way up a 20” does.

It is pretty impressive given its 1990s GM we’re looking at. The weird thing to me is I remember when these vans were common as a kid being shuttled around in them, yet I never remembered Silhouettes having those stripes until I saw that one
 
Back in the 80's I lived in a ww2 era apartment in Oak Ridge with a buddy. as I got home from work one day, 2 of the elderly neighbors were struggling with a bag of potting soil, so I'm helping them do their flowerbeds. They had just told me that the jehoviah's witnesses were working the neighborhood, when I hear yelling; I'm holding a 50 lb bag of dirt as i the two idiots emerge from our apt at a dead run. My buddy is on their heels withhis Katana sword, wearing only a pair of tighty whities,lol.
He chased them down the street, out of sight. I look at the neighbors, who are shocked, and say, "well,you don't see that everyday! " :)
I finished helping, and went inside; He ran them a few miles, lol.
They let themselves in, and woke him up on the couch.
 
Overall I'd rate this ad a 9.5 out of 10. If you want to know what the car looks like from across the yard with a tree partially obstructing your view then look no further. Interesting in seeing how it fits in under a graffiti'd overpass? Bam, there you go. Curious why there are a set of vice grips on the outer tie rod? Man don't play!! I only marked it down because I was really hoping for a picture of it at a gas station or on the back of a wrecker, but you really can't have everything.
