Funny one DJ.

The one below got me started laughing @ this part of the ad:

"If you have to ask permission to buy this item it is not for you. I don't want to see y'all getting owned and told can't have it so please leave the women at home..."

He's right - it's always better to ask for forgiveness afterwards rather than permission before.

Who knows what's in it. Most likely a Pontiac 301 or Chevy 350.
You could get a 400 Pontiac in this bodystyle in 1977. 1979 had the 231 Buick, Pontiac 301, Buick 350, Olds 350 and 403. (It may be the smallblock Olds 403) Most of those were in Bonnevilles, so I am betting the 301 as well. If it had a brand new Butler crate 535 IA II engine I may give him $5000 for it

No Chevy engine?
I have a friend with a '78 Cat with the Chevy engine if I remember correctly. The '78 I had came with the Pontiac 301. Not much power but it was a great, reliable driver.

That's not even a '94. It's the older body style.

The only bag you will need is one over your head while driving.

It's not bagged now? There's no way he can steer those front wheels as it sits now. His front wheel wells are stock, too - I doubt it would steer at 6 inches higher. And why wouldn't he replace the "I" on the drivers' side quarter panel? (That one really bugs me.)

Probably the roughest, complete Buick GNX in the world. Only what, 547 made?
You would think it would have been better cared for. Can be yours for only $30,000.

That guy thinks pretty highly of that car, doesn't he? It's a good thing, too, because he ain't gonna sell it for $15K.
