I didn't take any pics. the guy has been saying he was going to sell it for a while but never commited to it. he finally decided to sell & gave me a price. car wasn't as nice as i had heard but it is still pretty nice & its original un-molested car. a few minor rust issues(heels of fenders couple minor spots on quarters) interior nice engine compartment untouched with A/C its been sitting in his garage for about 18 years. as usual other people want it also but none of them are stepping up with the cash.(they want to steal it) i'm just not up on my Oldsmobile values although i have had a lot of other A body cars (Chevelles) if i wind up with it I'll post some pics. i would say it's in #3- or #4 condition any ideas of a fair price. Thanks Bruce
