Just moved to the area and neighbour had this sitting out.
Anyone know what year this is? Just getting into z cars.

75 or 76.

Look at the identification plate in the drivers door jamb area. It'll have a manufacturer date.

Thanks! What would a reasonable offer on this be do you think?

Take $2000 cash with you and offer $500 first

Doesn't look like anything special I'm wondering what kind of shape it's in. Fact that there is air in the tires is encouraging. Lots of rain here recently though.

What are your plans, and what are your skills?  Find out more about how long it's been sitting and what is broken.

California has non-op fees also.  You should just put your city in your avatar, searching area codes is a pain.

Have fully restored pontiacs in the

Have fully restored pontiacs in the past so no problems with that (except time). Will add my city.

Concur...75 or 76.
You need to look at the floor boards for rust. Does it or when did it last run? All that matters when determining its value.

If he plans to swap a V8 in that wouldn't matter so much.  Generally, I say pick a car that has the least of what you hate doing and the most of what you like.  Why buy a rusty Series I car with a low VIN (high value to many) if you hate body work and want to modify it?

I bought my non-running 76 car, engine quality unknown, because it was straight, no body work required, with minor rust.  I've had several diffs and transmissions in it, different seats, suspension, brakes, and it has a 1978 engine.  Great fun doing all of that work and I never smelled Bondo once, or got sanding dust on me.

So many unknowns to make a guess on what it's worth, but the difference between 75 and 76 in CA is significant. A 75 won't need to be smogged; a 76 will. That's worth a fair amount of money to the right person.

Research where all the typical rust areas are. Check all of those. Not having to smog would be a big deal there because the engine condition becomes a very small issue. Rust damage affects the value tremendously.
