Default Craigslist-'79 OB Wyoming, MI...44K, COMPLETE toolkit...$5000

Boys, if this isn't a steal on a seemingly clean '79 OB...just look at that tool kit!

Looks like a normal early tool kit

What are those early cargo covers worth in excellent condition as well as the small mesh net that goes between the seats?

Well,the ad is gone but I do have the images and write-up...

good:
-only 44k miles, car is in great shape
-borla stainless exhaust
-5 speed
bad
-slow coolant leak-somewhere
-slow fuel leak- it drips from above rear wheel when under pressure. There is a filter there so it's either a fitting or the filter.
Car has been under cover in my garage for the last six years, but it does run and drive.

I would pull the trigger on that car instantly. Those leaks are both easy fixes (assuming they are the normal places where they develop leaks).

Thanks looks nice! Strange however, it appears someone cut a notch out of the front flap. Maybe for hauling skis?

Didn't pay any attention to that. The car had been a Colorado car so that makes sense.
