Oldsmobile Starfire (1978)
for sale
Price: US $2,000.00
Price: US $2,000.00
This car is in nearly all original/stock condition. I have all the original paperwork including the build sheet! I can provide receipts of work that's been done to it on my part, too.
Some features:
151 CI Iron Duke 4cyl
Manual brakes (disk up front, drum out back)
AC
2nd row seating with a roomy hatch as well (the back seats fold down too!)
Rear Defogger (wiring in the hatch needs redone)
In the time I've owned this car, I've replaced the brake hardware in both the front and back, rebuilt the carb, and put 4 new tires on it. It also got a full tune up (spark plugs, cap, wires).
Mechanically, this car is great. It'll go 350 miles on one tank of gas, which is awesome for my commute to school. The interior on this car is in excellent condition, minus the headliner needing to be replaced and the body by fisher door sill trim panels needing to be replaced as well. The radio works great, too!
Note: not only does it have manual brakes, but manual steering as well!
What it needs:
Wheels (some of them are bent and cause vibration on the highway)
A/C Compressor (if you really need A/C)
Body work (fenders, lower quarters, doors). The underside isn't too bad, but the pinch welds will need to be redone eventually. Floor plans are clean.
Panhard bar (slightly bent)
Oil pan, Tranny pan, exhaust gaskets (will be doing them soon hopefully) The speedometer cable also sqeaks.I may also be putting a new battery in it soon.
Since I have owned this car, I've done everything I can to cherish it and love it the way it deserves to be. I've loved every single moment driving it. These cars are in short supply anymore, especially ones that haven't been cut up and put on a drag strip.
In terms of shipping:
I would much rather prefer you come pick it up (it is completely drivable), but I may be able to bring it to you. I will not drive it long distance just for you to look at it, however. Email me and we can figure something out!
Contact me by email or by phone! (I prefer text or email)
No trades, sorry!
Thank you for looking!
