Don't forget these

I won't consider changing it to an AT or altering it by figuring out how I could make it hydraulic because the car is too original to do something like that. I am currently in the beginning stages of applying for permanent disability.
Adding to this is the realization that due to other circumstances in my life, I don't have a garage to store the G/A, I can't do a lot of the most basic work like I used to because of the back as well as neck issues I have, and after being off from having my prostate removed for 2 months, I lack the financial resources to do it as well.
I'm not trying to come off that I am crying in my beer, I am certain many of you have some or all of the same circumstances I do, it's just that this car is an excellent restoration candidate. It's rustfree, numbers matching, has a somewhat interesting istory, is likely a one of one (by colors and options), and would be a showstopper when done (in my opinion), it would certainly be unique at just about any Pontiac show).
I am not going to eBay yet and can work with a potential buyer in terms of time (such as waiting till tax time). The price range will be around $5500 as that is what I have in it so far between the purchase price, transport from El Paso, TX, and repairs I have done so far. If you are near by, please get with me and come see the car. Here is the photobucket link: http://s1098.photobucket.com/albums/...%204dr%204spd/
Please feel free to ask any questions, offer suggestions or opinions, or anything else. I am gathering information here, I will post it in the 'for sale' forum when it is official.
Sorry for the 'book' and thanks for reading (if you still are), Dave
P.S. A few of you I have already talked with about the G/A, you are still at the top of the list, if you're interested.
