It's times like this I wish I had a job...

$212 for a perfectly good car that needs (what seems to be) not much work.

I could get the windshield and all that RIGHT now from a junkyard, and I'm sure I could get the tranny from the same place! And real cheap too...

DAMNIT.

Why wouldn't be? ALL 1st gens are 4 bolt. The se's just have a different PCD or whatever you call it.

I love how he uses all caps... plus how he didn't bother to brush off the snow on the front... OR.. maybe he doesn't want us to see some big hole or something

Me too - did some digging around and have found numerous pictures of GSL-SEs with 4 bolt patterns out there - Todd Hornsby's page for example - has two of em.

How much for engine? It is not worth it for me to drive 12 hours rent a trailer for wheels, and plastic. Anyone want to drive/ride up and or maybe have trailer?

The add said the are new but I have not seen them yet. If any one is itrested Let me know. I am hoping to pick up this week end, when I do I will post pics.

You should have told us you were bidding. I would have stayed out of it and maybe it would have sold cheaper. When you go to look at it check out his brown GSL-SE. It has been hit in the front side. He wants under 1000.00 for it. He said it runs and drives.
Check your messages.

Yeah, the GSL-SE has 4 wheel discs and and an LSD, on the 4 x 4.5" (114.3mm) bolt patern. The wheels are also 14" as opposed to the 13" on the non-SE models.
