What type of work does it need? Mechanical? Cosmetic?
Damn thought mine was a steal for 1100 good buy dude

mechanicaly its sound aside from the brakes witch i did today
it needs 2 fenders, a hood, a new air intake plastic box , the front bumper was spray painted so eventally ill have it painted right and the grill with the chevy symbol is missing
also some quater pannel damage nothing serious my dads friend owns and auto body so it all should be getting fixed
i did buy a dent puller today and make the fenders look ok for now
the motor and transmission are mint
i also need trunk carpet
hopeffuly i can get to a junk yard some time this week and pick up a few of these parts
oh and there is none of the typical jbody rust on the frame, the frame looked so clean you could eat off it lol not bad for a Massachusetts car
just some rust on the hood and the bottom of the drivers door had some rust on the inside witch i cleaned and painted today
If you do find any rust on that car other than what you have already go get some POR15 its a rust sealer done lots of restos and never had a return @!#$ really does work and they stand by there product its gurenteed!

haha she goes on the road tommrow
btw im looking for an air intake that goes right to the throttle body and a a stock spoiler if any one has me pm me
looks like your PCV port is leaking pretty good...might want to pull that off and inspect the hose/clamp and that FPR looks pretty rusted out, prob a good idea to replace that as well (might even be leaking). but damn good buy! I also see a cruise control set up...while it junks up the engine bay CC would be nice to have sometimes for longer trips. Your fender looks salvageable, pop that sucker off and fix it properly with some Harbor Freight dent tools!
I can honestly say being in TX makes be happy to never see the corrosion and deposits you guys get...it'll clean up nicely but still, mine was as clean top and bottom as the day it came off the factory floor even after 160k miles!
