Pretty cool. You don't discriminate when it comes to vehicles do you? Lol.

When those things were new, I thought they were ugly and the Saturn Sky looked much better. But looking back now, they were pretty neat cars. I haven't seen one in years.

I try to stay open minded but tend to steer towards gm just due to being familiar.

I like the Saturn version a lot more, but they are even harder to find. Took me two years to find a manual gxp for decent price and not too far away. Of course it needs work, but I call it a payment plan. I make payments as time goes on and fix things instead of taking a loan out to begin with.

Nice. I always liked those.

so does this mean the vette is being sold or are you going to continue with both projects? when these were new I sat in one at an auto show. I remember my head sticking up higher than the windshield LOL

Ahh Spring is in the air and @yevgenievich is accumulating cars faster than some us buy new underwear.

I agree with the Saturn looking cooler but regardless, the rose colored glasses are on for this one. Hope you dont have a hard time finding those replacement grilles.

Looks like it doesnt need much body wise, maybe a claybar and polish. Buff out the headlights too. Whats wrong with it?

My head sticks above the windshield too, but seat can be lowered some with a cut off wheel. Corvette is for sale the moment I get paper work for it. I did not anticipate finding this one when the Vette came around.

It needs new struts, front grills, some motor/trans mounts, intercooler is bent up heavily.

Look forward to the progress. They are pretty cool looking little cars

Not too bad with the exception of maybe the intercooler. Should be a relatively quick job though. Man that 5 speed has got to make that car fun. A little food for thought on more fun:

I will need to get intercooler and associated brackets fixed. It took a decent hit. There are few door dings around, but pretty decent overall.

I was going to ask if that was turbo or not, but NVM. LOL Could be a fun little car - reminds me of what John Z Delorean wanted when he was head of Pontaic and the Firebird came out instead.

I forget what they called it.

Oh, yeah - the Banshee !!

Most small FR cars will be fun. My wife wants to get into track days and has been bugging me about a Miata or s2k for a while now.

If you do decide to let it go, I have a friend that will likely buy it in a heartbeat.
