Hi all,
Not sure how this all goes together so this is draft one. I had my car with a 5 year bank loan at $8000 USD! It is my fourth GM and now I have an '88 Cadillac Deville making it 5 cars of my own. I'm in my middle 30s and it seems people here are mostly younger ages. My car was bought from a local owner but is not a local car, and had been theft recovered. I've been able to find out via Third Gen.Org that mine is possibly 1 of only 50 ASC modified 350 TPI convertibles made for that year!
It needs body and mechanical work at 127K, but I'm set on as best a resto job as I can manage on shoestring budget with hopes of future collector interest in ASC GM cars.

I had forgotten to say, this is a GM/ASC conversion for model year 1989, and while there is no side door lables (yes, the ASC jam stamp, no, the Form 350 stickers), I plan to remedy that thanks to eBay. I'm searching for a headunit with solid state amp, hopefully a MD unit...front speakers in dash are factory stock. The paint work is custom done, and the photos were taken when the car was younger. Sadly, it has no garage and is a daily driver until fuel pump expired.

This particular year is rare enough, but I was still surprised to hear comments about it from passers by. It's a keeper/resto!
