One owner ’88 LS in SW VA for sale July 21, 2012, 10:30:49 AM As much as I hate to do it, I am putting my one owner ’88 LS up for sale. I’m sure that one day I will kick myself for selling it, but right now I can’t stand to see the effects of her just sitting slowly taking effect. I have always wanted to restore her, but for the foreseeable future I will neither have the money or a facility in which to do so. I would rather sale her and see somebody use her and fix her up than to watch the ravages of time work on her.Like I said, I bought her new in ’88 and have driven her until we moved in 2008. Since then she has been sitting in my brother’s garage until recently and now she is sitting out behind his garage in southwest VA. The car is still solid and runs good, but as with any well used (and maintained) vehicle, she isn’t perfect. For some reason, I have had a hard time getting the O-ring on the tranny dipstick to seal after replacing the flex plate, so there is a leak there. There are small dents ahead and behind the doors from my daughters, the driver’s seat frame broke a few years ago (on the left side of the backrest) but the seat is still functional and just leans back a little on the left side. The paint was peeling, so I sanded it down to the factory primer and painted flat black over it for protection, so she needs a paint job too and lastly she needs a set of tires. Fix the tranny leak, throw a new set of tires on her and you could probably drive it anywhere.Low retail according to NADA is $1600, so let’s start out asking $1000 and see what happens.

One owner ’88 LS in SW VA for sale Reply #11 – October 30, 2012, 09:41:47 PM I talked to my little bro about it and he says I can't part it out at his place (350 miles away from me). My nephew wants to buy it but his mom says no because there's no room in her garage and her HOA has an appearance clause for vehicles. Soooo, she's still for sale. Quote Selected
