I agree, nice but out of place. Silver or grey might have been better.

I don't know, going to need some time with this one. The pic with the yellow stitching on the seats along with the paint add a little appeal.

I wish I could find a good head shot of Brian. I could make a bobblehead of him, and set it on my trans stand in his honor.

No doubt I just woke up in the hallway with a hole in my tongue and slobber running down my face. Oh...wait....that's every day.

This guy got to be way older than any of us. The 78 T/A has been a classic since the day the movie came out. The 88 Vette got nothing on the S&B T/A.

Yeah, I can see a 96 LT4 go up to $30K around the year 2040 and it has to be stock. I guess the only I need to go 100% unstock on mine is the ZF and I dont think there is a better part out there to replace that one.

Fighter Jet seats ah? Tell that to Goose.

The c4 will one day become that 'smokey-and-the-bandit' 78 transam t-top 4 speed that people will pay way more than its worth.

It is too unique a car. Clamshell hood, wedge styling, 180 degree rotating headlights, 'fighter-jet' seats.

So 18k (and up) will be a normal price as the car becomes a classic.

Plan on $30k for a '96 lt4 with manual transmission.

The C4 had 13 model years, the 78 TA had 2 model years with that body. Big difference.

Hold on a sec... did this clown just use the argument that his supercharged C4 was faster than his f**king WORK TRUCK??? Just... wow.

That worked out well. At least we can still watch the show, without being part of the show.
