Addicted To Boost Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 Whats with the funky colored valve cover? Quote
IRONDOG442 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 Damn that looks so much like my 90 although mine is a coupe.. wow....they do look just alike....I was very confused for a minute PWNED !!! Quote
j_mezz Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 Whats with the funky colored valve cover? I was wondering that too...? Quote
ManicMechanic Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 You know, I've seen Corsicas with the gold valve cover. My Regal 2.8 also had a gold valve cover. Not sure of the meaning. Quote
Crazy K Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 I've seen a few cars that had a few flakes of that tanish valve cover left. but yeah, that cover is pristine! Quote
ManicMechanic Posted October 24, 2008 Report Posted October 24, 2008 I just saw a 1989 Cavalier wagon with a 2.8 and a 5 speed and it had the gold valve cover. I thought the 2.8/5 speed combo was only available in Z24s... Quote
Addicted To Boost Posted October 24, 2008 Report Posted October 24, 2008 FWIW my 89 GP 2.8 5-speed didn't have a gold valve cover. Strange. Quote
j_mezz Posted October 29, 2008 Report Posted October 29, 2008 Looks like he's gonna try and flip it for $35,000... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Oldsmobile-Cutlass-1988-OLDSMOBILE-CUTLASS-INDY-PACE-CAR-700-MILES_W0QQitemZ110305289890QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item110305289890&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=65%3A10%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1309 Quote

IRONDOG442 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 Why does every ass hole in the world think they can buy an Oldsmobile at an auction like Barret Jackson or Kruse (a location where bidders actually have money) for an obnoxious amount then trailer it home and 1 week later and try and resell it on eBay to make a profit? Don't people realize that eBay buyers: 1. have no money 2. aren't involved in an egotistical shootout of who has more money and a bigger dick than the other guy 3. will bid an obnoxious amount and never pay so in essence each time this happens the seller loses $40 4. will not pay even close to market value on an oldsmobile I swear people are fucking retards, that car will not sell for a dime more than the asshole paid for it let alone what he paid for the broker fee, taxes, title fee, gas money, and delivery of the car. PEOPLE ARE FUCKING STUPID !! Quote
Night Fury Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 Amen. But then we wouldn't be able to gawk over it!!! Quote
Euro Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 wait...it was originally from IL!?!?!? Quote

PEOPLE ARE FUCKING STUPID !! not necessarily the ford dealer in springfield il sold a ford gt on ebay it some guy in california Quote
IRONDOG442 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 You can obviously read a Ford GT is not an Oldsmobile ! Quote
jake91 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 i saw that but what i was responding to was the part about people on ebay having no money Quote
IRONDOG442 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 Did you actually see the seller get the money? I sold my car on ebay for $60,000 too, but I am still not $60,000 richer. Quote
jake91 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 all i know is i went to the dealership when it was closed one night and i saw it in the showroom and i went back 2 days later to go in and see it and it was gone and the dealer told me they sold it on ebay to a guy in california and they had shipped it off yesterday Quote

PEOPLE ARE FUCKING STUPID Ah. So you're finally admitting I was right when I told you the same thing back during our TGP vs. 'Vert values debate? Hell, this thing sold for even LESS at Barrett Jackson than your example, despite being far, FAR more unique, and having far less miles! http://www.w-body.com/forum/index.php?topic=54103.30 Quote
