5000 CST for sale - make an offer!!



Hi Everyone,

I need to sell my 87 5k CST soon; I just can't afford it (time or money-wise) right now and I can't bear to have it just sit. Here's the catch, it's an automatic and it's got the dreaded tranny/diff fluid swap going on. the ATF is leaking into the diff, not the other way around. I parked it as soon as I discovered the problem and it was running fine at the time, so i think the tranny is fine and may just need a reseal (~$300?). No shop in my locale wants to deal with it and I don't have the time to take it out of the area for a repair. 

As the rest of the car is in great shape It would make a great ride for somebody willing to take a bit of a risk, or make a nice parts car for a 5KCSQ owner (MC engine, new exhaust, snows (new Graspics), etc. Read more below...

As for price; obviously I'd like as much as possible for the car, but go ahead and make me an offer and we can talk.
