Just as a reference point to how much things have changed, back in '93-'94 I had the almost identical car w/o the vinyl top. Same color, extremely low miles, genuine one-owner who was a little old lady by the time I bought it, bone stock. 307/TH350 trans, cold A/C, showroom fresh interior. Drove like a new car. Took it up to Seattle and VC from L.A. in spring of '94 and have some great pics under the giant redwoods that I should scan.

Paid $1100 for it. Granted it was a 307 but it had rally wheels and was a sharp 2-door. When I sold it in '94, Chevelles were heating-up, unbeknownst to me. I put it in the recycler, (pre-internet for me), for $1700 and I got ~200 phone calls the first day. Realising my folly, I pulled it from the market to re-evaluate. I'd obviously under-priced it by a hair.

Wound up selling it to a guy I knew who was a Chevy freak for $2500 and he turned it into a high-dollar muscle car w/ a rat motor and everything beefed-up or replaced. I really miss that car the way it was when I had it. It was an awesome "driver".
