Was this car on the Alton NH craigslist in late July. Sounds awfully familiar to one I saw there. Down to HP and engine mods.

Only 87s had naca ducts, 88-89 were flat hood. 90-91s had the blister scoops. Some 90s were flat hood also.

Like this one a lot, even as it sits. Would be worth a buyer's time to shine her back up. It's very much of-the-era with the GM body pieces (way more handsome than a Greenwood kit, to me) and blue interior. The dark blue exterior is not that common and always interesting to see. Good luck with this one, it should make someone a nice buy.

These cars are absolutely amazing. They were worth the $85k sticker back then.

Was it originally medium blue or white? How many miles are on it?

Paint code 28, dark blue metallic, it's wearing the original paint, the body kit was painted when new that is the white you may be seeing where the P aint has worn off from road. Odo shows 102k but it's more like 70k since the gear in the trans was not changed when the rear end gears were swapped.

This color combo wasn't offered from the factory in 1988. Does the interior code show as Blue? Dark Blue Metallic was only offered with Black or Saddle interiors and they didn't have an override like they do now. The only way to get a color combo override back then is to truly know someone. So assuming you can confirm the colors are listed like the car sits then it's an almost certain 1 of 1 combo.

Dark Blue was certainly available w/ blue interior. I have seen at least a half dozen in this combo, and my best friend owned one, also. Rare, for sure!!
