New/old car

We have all heard those stories about prime cars found in a barn somewhere. I talked with my cousin up in Arkansas today and he says he is finally going to sell his new (less than 2000 miles)/old 1979 Olds. Check out http://olds.95mb.com/

I'd almost feel guilty driving something like that, especially if I had to leave it sitting outside.

Wow- Now I remember what a full size car should be. Chrome, 2 doors, a hood ornament, and you really can tell its an Olds. No jelly beans there!

Beautiful car, of all the full size GM's of that era I always thought the olds looked the best in the 2 dr version. Hope they get some decent money out of it.Reminds me of the time I looked at a early 80's Grand Marq 2 dr, this was in 94, car only had 7-8k on it. Almost bought it but couldn't get over the color, blue on blue-screamed old lady car more than they usually do.
