If this was closer to me, I would very likely grab it... ah well.paulevans76 said:looks like an 89 RS in pretty rough shape, listed for $800...ad states auto V6, but it's definitely a 2 door (edit: meaning RS and those only came in 4cyl). Seller says going to scrapper after Jan 5th, someone could probably get it for next to nothing if they can act fast...
I am going to pick it up tomorrow. It is rough :roll: and an auto :roll:shaggydoink said:If this was closer to me, I would very likely grab it... ah well.paulevans76 said:looks like an 89 RS in pretty rough shape, listed for $800...ad states auto V6, but it's definitely a 2 door (edit: meaning RS and those only came in 4cyl).

I'd MUCH rather have that auto than the POS that came behind the V6's. That one is a solid unit. Plus if you decide to SAS in the future, it's gives you more front driveshaft length than the MUA5 does, so you can get some decent suspension movement without binding the jointsimamonstertruck said:I am going to pick it up tomorrow.

The rust is horrible. The wheel wells patched with spray insulation foam :roll: I like 3.4 and my MUA5, I am happy with.paulevans76 said:I'd MUCH rather have that auto than the POS that came behind the V6's.

Pep up the 4 cyl and it won't be too much of a slug, esp compared to the heavier 4 door rigs.
The youtube video location is Belgium that is embedded in the Craigslist offer so approach this with some caution.I sent the guy an email verifying the locale so this might be one of those "Send me the $$ and I'll ship it to you.

Great deal? Have you checked the retail or trade value? Worse, this is probably the notorious Holden 2.2L engine.2001blackrodeols said:Dropped from 6500 to 5500 and as says only 57,000 miles
