1966 F85 Holiday Deluxe 4dr Hardtop
Well guys it has been fun and good ol' Gracie has been a blast but need to make some room. I would keep her, but with my new acquisition a 99 Camaro SS for the price of free is a little easier on the kids (A/C) so she has to go. Here are the details:
I am the 3rd owner
It has 21k original miles (both of the other owners were well past their prime, when the second owner bought her in 84 it only had 3k miles on it)
330 2 barrel
2 speed jet a way
Everything that can be original still is but there were some parts replaced (Cap, rotor, wires, plugs, carb, 1 low beam headlight and tires) But I still have all of the originals minus the tires
Exterior is in good shape - not excellent but good (no rust holes) but she is starting to show some age ( some of the chrome has pitted) scratches and a small dent
Interior - everything is good, but also shows some age (crack in steering wheel, interior fabric could use a good scrubbing)
$3000

Thanks, wish I didn't have to sell, but when my mother decided that she wanted another firebird, she gave me her SS and I just don't have the room in the garage now. Wish I could park her in the driveway with a cover, but our dumb Sub association won't allow it. I would place it in storage but I am already spending money on storage for our boat. I love taken her to the shows, so far this year I have been the only olds 4dr hardtop at every show I have gone to.

Cool car! Good luck selling it.
If you really want to keep ahold of it maybe you could get a bigger storage unit where you could keep your boat and the Olds. My wife and I rented a huge storage unit when I was in the service. We stored my 64 Olds 98 and a good amount of our furniture in it for a number of years.

Wow, looks almost like the one I had, when I got it, she had just 32k miles, I got it from the original owner in Austin, Tx. Esther.jpg
