99vetteman Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 So, I am hoping this will be my winter car when I go to look at it on Saturday, the guy only sent me interior pics, hopefully exterior pics will come later today. As you can see, no tilt, manual windows, base cluster, base radio, base air condition controls. One thing I find odd, and maybe someone can correct me. If you look above the floor shifter you can see the round international logo. I thought only International Models got this logo. Is it possible to have an international model thats so base? And yes it only has 60,000 miles on it. (100,000) kms Pics.. Well, here is a pic of the exterior, certainly nothing to get excited about, looks like some 15" wheel covers on there. I see some rust on the back quarter panel, as well as the front of the rocker panel. Should I be very concerned about that? What would you pay Canadian for this car. He is asking 2100 OBO, NO WAY hes gonna get that, I was thinking about offering 1600 to start. PIC Quote
Dirty Rockstar Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 Looks to me like it has Int'l seats as well.. Notice the million way seat adjuster control, and the ass padding there in the pics.. Quote
ToroToro Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 It's been discussed that you could get a completely basic I-series and this looks like one of them...The only thing that sets it apart is that it doesn't have power locks ( so no keyless entry... that was supposed to be standard ), no foglamps ( also standard ), and no "million way" adjust seats ( I'm seeing a coin holder... ) Either someone ordered up a strange cutty, or its a fake. I'm leaning towards a fake...noticed the door panels. On every I series I've seen, they are upolstered to match the seats. This one has the "base" vinyl ones. Any exterior pics? Quote

They exterior pics are coming, this guy is like 80 years old, and he is the original owner, so I do not see how he would have done anything with the car except drive it. He would certainly not add a international badge for the hell of it! LOL Quote
ToroToro Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 Well I suppose not haha...just a strangely ordered car then. Quote
Brian P Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 that is sweet, it brings back memories of my base '90 except I had a split bench up front. I so doubt that's an International. Someone replaced that center console piece. Notice how the coin holder isn't all the way down? The coin holder won't fit in a console that was meant for the pneumatic controls (molded differently) Quote
ZoomZoomFan Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 I can't wait to see some exterior shots of this beast. Anyways, that is one very stange interior. :| Quote
EurosportZ34 Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 looks like a gem from the inside...be sure to post more pics real soon Quote
Pabz Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 start at 1600 CDN, any lower and u'll piss em off. 100,000 is pretty good though, paid 1800 for a 90 convert man with 166,000 u do the math. Quote
digitaloutsider Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 I'd pay $500 USD for that at the very most. If I had a dollar for everytime I've seen a 3.1/440t4 W-body.. well I wouldn't be driving a W-body anymore, I'll leave it at that Quote
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 Didn't you just buy a Lumina?? Quote
99vetteman Posted November 24, 2005 Author Report Posted November 24, 2005 Didn't you just buy a Lumina?? Yeah i did, but i guess you missed the post... The morning i went to go pick it up, 15 cars at the dealership got vandalized, keyed, slashes etc. Took my depost and got out of there. Quote

jeremy Posted November 25, 2005 Report Posted November 25, 2005 clean as hell, but it is way to basic for me..... Quote
94CutlassSLCoupe Posted November 25, 2005 Report Posted November 25, 2005 My '88 Base looked idential on the outside...and actually had more options on the inside. That is a base model, which i believe to have had the console switched out or the international emblem added. Both of our bases ('88 and '90) have both had tilt, power antennas Quote
99vetteman Posted November 25, 2005 Author Report Posted November 25, 2005 clean as hell, but it is way to basic for me..... That much less that can break I guess. If I hold out, I suppose I could find a 90 or 91 SL/International with alot more options, but the low km's and clean interior is what interests me here.. Quote
GP1138 Posted November 25, 2005 Report Posted November 25, 2005 Not even in Canuck Bucks is that worth 2100 beans. Quote
