i was talking to the guy earlier and the info i got was a bit vague but from what i could understand the car has been sitting in a garage since '95 or so, he said it is beige colored and i believe he said it had slotted aluminum wheels(i dont know if he meant trx ones). the tires on it failed inspection so i hope its not the trx ones.
if i can this weekend i may go check it out and if it catches my eye might buy it, a big "if" though. just passing this along incase someone else is interested.

to me its not the color of the paint but the "shape" its in, atleast its not pink or something.
id have to do something about the rims though, might be some in the j/y that hold air.

Wow, talk about a rare color. 

Why must people tempt me with things like this...

Personally I could care less about the TRX stuff...4-lug stuff wouldn't hang around on any of my cars anyway.

Looks like it's solid for $700 but yea.. the TRX wheels and $$$ for tires would be hassle.
