Could I get someone in the Jacksonville area to go look at a 79 and give me a report, maybe grab a few more pictures. I will be glad to pay you for time and fuel.

Address: 5515 118th St Lot 114

Nice dent in right quarter and door jamb. How bad? Rust? general condition?
I hate to drive 5 hours each way for nothing.

Here is a link to the add.

A friend has been looking to get into a 5th gen for awhile and this one looks like it might be in pretty good shape rust wise.

Neil , Not sure if you saw it or if it meets the criteria your friend is looking for but I put up a forum earlier today for a custom 1981 El Camino and a 1987 GMC Caballero on Craigslist . Both are in Marathon , Fl. , 50 miles north of Key West . Look in the Craigslist/ Ebay forums .

Thanks. How did it look for rust? What is wrong with the engine? Knocking - smoking?
Can I paypal you something for your trouble?

Motor is locked up, owner stated it overheated and stopped...There's some body damage but no obvious rust issues. Nice original seat though. Offer him $100 and he'll probably take it. Thank you for the payment offer but I must respectfully decline, I may need a favor someday:beer:
