Time for one of my favorite jokes: 2 rednecks head for a big lake, rent a boat and go fishing. They hit the best spot of their lives, they're pulling big fish in left-and-right. After just 2 hours they're worn out, so they turn the boat in early and head home. A few miles later Clem says...

FB starting 'marketplacing' your personal info as soon as you signed up, though. :rolleyes:

I miss the 88 Dippy AHB I had. Terribly slow, but a fabulously nice-driving car. Smooth, comfortable, and handled really well. I put 11.75" B-body discs on it, a cheap simple upgrade, and it would stretch your eyeballs on a hard stop. And one of the best seats I've ever sat it. Unless it...

I'm not a Chevy guy, nor a Corvette guy, but this thread is my kinda thing! I used to do these revivals back when I was single and had time.

I've seen this one for sale on ebay before, always thought it fairly nice but priced at the high end of the range compared to others I've seen. OTOH - the console and 4-barrel are unusual to see on a standard 300. But 12k and some patience might find an equally-nice 300K?

I get your sentiment, but I doubt it would happen like that. A car that big, and if engine is essentially 1963-era stock - there's a lot of new cars that will walk away from this car on city streets. And even if the Olds has 4:10 gears or something -- then it'll be fighting for grip. Here are 2...

Agreed. Dad had an 80 Dippy with the 120hp 318, and I once had an 88 copcar. Both were slugs. But I will say, the copcar was one of the smoothest-riding, nimble, and fun-to-drive cars I've ever had. Fabulous seat comfort. And it had the look, too. With that said, I don't know if I would...

Going back to an earlier question, I knew I was seeing this face before. Late Dippies got a facelift, but apparently only for civvy cars. Copcars needed the 'ole face - can't send them out with earrings, so to speak.

Just make sure to use a flex hose on the radiator, and we'll support you all the way!

FWIW, my 88 Dippy copcar was one of the best-riding cars I've ever owned. But also very slow. I had added 2-1/4" dual exhaust but it didn't help much. My dream was either a 5.2 or 5.9 Maggie with an A500 and some 3.55 gears - but life got in the way. The tailpipes can be exited under the...

That's not 'I overflowed my radiator when refilling it', that stain is 'my radiator overflowed a bunch of ancient coolant '. $9900 seems high, but 71-74 Charger prices are starting to climb. If it had the rearend 'fixed' and Rallye wheels it would be a totally different situation. Oh, and the...

Put yer money where your mouth is, pal. From what I've seen so far you only do the easy conversions. :lol:

There are more pics on the CL listing for those interested. This one looks perfect for a re-awakening! Too bad no title, that will cause a lot of people to pass by. Unfotunately this one was T-boned by a Honda at some point.

That would be a lot more fun to drive if it had a 2.2-2.5 turbo in it. Or a Mitsu/DSM from an Eclipse. And a 5-speed. And wouldn't hurt the value a bit, IMHO.

This one looks so much better than the one Chrysler did. When I first saw Carmine's pics I thought it looked a little unbalanced and patchwork, too imposing at the front and too minivan-like at the rear, and the glass didn't look very well planned. If they were as slick as the mid-late 80s...

Good avatar there GJS! Good 'ole Johnny Dangerously, so many good lines in that one - Michael Keaton has talent that puts most of the 'leading men' in Hollywood to shame.

And now we know Carmine's ebay name and can bay-stalk him!:lol: Jokes aside, good writeup on that thing. Your BIN doesn't seem terribly unreasonable for it, either, considering it's so unusual. That price makes it almost spontaneous/impulse/flipper price-capable. A guy could buy it, keep it...

Soemthign about the narrow driveway, what appear to be tiny houses, and all that greenery tells me that car is probably happy to be in your 30-year care.

Quite annoyed by the letters, or from talking to you???:poke::D
