Not sure how many times it rolled over. It has blue interior. The owner is emailing me photos of the car. I will keep you posted.

Ps.....the 86 t-type that i want to buy....the guy is on crack.....He is determined to get $9,000. For that $$$ i can get a decent gn....even if i had to put a few bucks more it's a gn....in my opinion it holds more value than a t-type. Crazy i tell you!

Micheal,

Speaking as someone who bought a car with just a tiny bit of rust, there is no such thing as a tiny bit of rust on a G-body!!!! I have considerably more money tied up in the body of mine than I do in the purchase of my car and the last time I had my car appraised (2005 I think) it appraised for decent money. I have since had the rear frame rails replaced due to a "bit of rust" that I could never find while looking from underneath, but the body bushing holes were opened up. It now has new doors, rear quarters, rocker panels, etc and all of it is due to a "bit of rust". Things get real ugly when you start stripping one of these cars down to bare metal, remove all windows and interior, you quickly realize that there is no such thing as a bit of rust on a G-body!!!!

Good luck with that T, I really like the Blue T's, that is one of my favorite colours along with Rosewood and the WH-1 paint scheme.
