I wouldnt daily it. It's such a shitty car in pretty much every way.

Even with the
>muh garage kept low miles
car still isnt worth more than like a grand

>>17741030
way too expensive for what it is.

What's bad about it versus other economy cars from its era?

These are essentially unicorns up here in the rust belt. When you do see them on Craigslist they're usually caked with rust and practically falling apart.

At best an 11 second 0-60, shit gas mileage amplified that's by how hard you have to push it, terrible 80s GM quality.

>>17741242
I'm not interested in racing it and I'm no stranger to shitty GM interior build quality. I'm more interested in the reliability of the engine and how easy it is to work on.

>I love the way these look.
youre a strange one.

However if everything was in working order id pick it up, could probably talk him down to $1500. Assuming it really only has 60k on it itd be worth it even if it only ran for 2-3 years. Would be fun to beat around at least.

Though how the fuck does a family owned '86 only have 60k miles on it? 31 years old? Just makes no sense that theyd keep it if they werent driving it as if it were a classic or something.
>averages less than 2k miles a year
something stinks here

By the looks of the post it says it was his dear dad's car. Could be legit, but I get you.

Engine's are reliable enough, depends on which 6 it has really, but being someone who has owned GM 6's of the era and newer they're fine, never had issues. As for the A-body in general, had a Cutlass Ciera albeit with the Iron duke and base of the base, and it was well a car. Bad condition but hard to kill I'll give it that and was sound enough mechanically. (Obviously different engine than the 6000 you're asking about but they everything else)

Mechanically to awnser your question about parts, allot of it should be fine, the Pontiac's had some special bits, but that mostly applies to things like the Digital dash (I think it was pontiac only) and the optional AWD the STE had which doesn't really apply here obviously. I'd try to talk them down even if this is low miles.

I was thinking about offering 1500 if it all checks out upon inspection.

>>17741274

A lot of those 80's cars had 5-digit odometers so it could actually have 160 or 260k on it

This is true, but I believe the 6000 had 6-digits.

>>17741030
That right there is a project car, not a daily. Also be weary of cars with low mileage that have been sitting in garages for decades, lots have not been maintained or even turned on in that entire duration.

>t. brother inherited garage sleeper Cadillac with insanely low miles that fell apart in a month of dd'ing

2.8L likes to shit head gaskets arout 100-120k miles. Low miles means all the rubber bits are going to be rotten. Be prepared for new tires, belts, every gasket, brakes hoses, etc.

I'm a Ford fan, but by the mid 90s GM had the A bodys figured out. I would rather have a mid 90s Ciera or Century with more miles than this garage ornament with TRAILER HITCH WTF.
