I'm not that up on them either but from the prices that I've seen in the past, that hood is probably sold.

WTF is right...but what he's done to that car might be an improvement if it's anything like the 4cyl '85 model Century I bought new back then. Worst car ever!

I was going to make a similar comment. My dad had an '86 Olds Cutlass Ciera (same car, very slightly different sheet metal) that he bought from a rental car company. He sold it in '91 or so for $400.

He replaced that car with a (I think) 1991 Olds Cutlass Supreme which was even worse. His best Olds was his first - an '83 Omega with an electrical system that shorted out the first day he owned it.

Really a good case study for why so many people started buying Japanese...

To add insult to injury, I went into my '85 Century directly from my ol' yeller '68 GTO (2 weeks after it caught fire and 3 weeks after I got married). I figured I should invest in a NEW car.... the first and last new car purchase I ever made.
After being accustomed to that Pontiac 400 torque, that thing almost got me killed the first time I gunned it on an entrance ramp to merge into fast moving traffic. It wouldn't even get out of it's own way, much less that 18 wheeler I pulled in front of.
