Bottom feeder sounds a little better than sucker fish. Although neither of them sound particularly winsome.

Perhaps we should just use Loricariidae family, or to be more precise the specie of Hypostomus.

Hummmmm,
not much to see here , a dusty engine with some lite corrosion on the air cleaner buckles,
yep it needs an intake refresh based on the peeling PC.

Maybe some oil leaking as evidenced by the intake tubes and the wetness around the vent port collars.
Prolly a new set of fuel lines
I wonder what a belt inspection would show and if a new battery would make it spin

Looks nice and original under the hood. Lotta aluminum rust, tho.

5 gallons of gas, 5 minutes with a jumped fuel pump relay to circulate it, a new battery, and if you haven't just packed the rails with sludge and varnish, I bet it would fire right up. And a fuel pressure gauge to grade your work!

+$500 for the jump post cover being present...

FYI: Dan (owner) said he will post more pics of the engine bay and pod. No way he says for pics of the undercarriage. T

Yep... looks pretty original and mostly unmolested with corrosion-a-plenty.

If it fires, my guess is it will leak... badly from a multitude of places. Wonder if any critters made a nest in the air filter.

Oh well... as much as I would love to get my hands on this one, I think I'm out. Pretty clear it will go north of 10k.

Yep.....very intact and original
Fuel gauge gotta go
Agreed that after a few obvious checks
THE Cobalt GT will prolly fire right up
Is that DexCool in the the Rez or just rust...?

Now 9100.

For a few dollars more you could have this: 1990 Porsche 928 GT - $14900 And it runs.

1990 Porsche GT with 134k miles

..as evidenced by the 'pre-photoshoot' burnouts on the pavement.

Ummm... $9,389.28

Now who would have had the presence of mind to add $9.28 on the end of that bid...
