So what would a good price be ?? The guy has obo depends on how bad he wants to sell it .
It sure would be nice to see some pics.
My 83 looks pretty much like the 81FS in the pics above from 10 feet. It is rust free but the ds front fender has a dent. The interior is VERY nice, but nowhere near perfect (headliner, oxidization on some plastichrome pieces)... It still had FI and was is a non-runner. I gave the guy $800 for it but I planned from the start to do the minimal to get it running, and if I found out the FI was junk, I would go with a big block. That's where I am now. If I were you, I might go another $100 for the FS... but it would have to be nice.
You can find running, nice condition 81-83 Imperials on eBay or Craigslist for well under 3K - Maybe 4K for a FS. That's what they're worth right now. If you buy it for $900 and put 3K in it... you just break even.
