It came from Minnesota

This is my thread to document my random and weird findings up in the norte country....  ya hey..

1st up..

Larry

That's right.. tow mirrors, hood scoop, clearance lights, bull horns, oversize tires, hauling a duck boat, with a PVC Stack exhaust thingy... it could only be more Minnesotan if it had a canoe on top.

2nd up..

The clampetts...  1970's style

It has an automatic and manual transmission... DEEEE LUX

The winters are long and cold. 

That car needs a cage and a trip to Lemons just as it sits. Seems like a shoo in for IOE. 

In reply to mndsm :

I have yet to do anything even CLOSE to that J body. Although, I did run those purple winter wheels one year...

Yeah.. I know patina is played out.. buuuuuuutttt

Yes, Ladies.. This could be you.. standing behind a chrysler..... in a parking lot... burning one..  while Mitch flashes you a peace sign and will be back to pick you up later after this important thing he has to do...  Be quiet.. it's imporant..  no h won't tell you why...  it might take some time.. don't worry he'll be back... They always come back... no they never come back.. no there is nothing wrong with you...     maybe there is...

That blazer me me tingly. 

In reply to 1kris06 :

Those wheels were the whores of mnmazda. I bought them off Parnell. Painted them in Dan's garage. I used them, you used them, poopy used them, and I used them again before they finally disappeared with the one mx6. Strangely, as a closure to all of that, I bought poopys winter set, after he sold his ms3, ran them for a season, and sold them to Parnell for his girlfriend's car. 

A camaro lying in a pool of ATF

Seller states it.. 

1. Is from Texas
2. Does not run due to some dodgy alarm
3. Could totally run.. but dosen't
4. "someone" tried to move it while he wasn't around and "cracked" the case on the transmission...
5. But don't worry it's fine..
6. Then posts picture of car sitting in pool of ATF...  
7. Still it's fine.

$3500.

I don't hate the blazer. It has a lot of potential. $5k seems kind of strong for it though.

You must be a real man to drive this car. No lady boy is going to be able to handle this thing.

I love how it has side mirrors the size of the dude's upper body, but he's still leaning out the window to back it up...

Hahaha--those actually are more for on-the-road, and in my experience don't help too much while backing a small boat into the water. 

BTW, love this thread.

ls swapped Volvo 240

I'm disappointed by the lack of suburban moms wearing North Face vests and Ugg boots simultaneously driving, smoking, yelling at the kids in the back, slurping on a Caribou coffee and tailgating the car in front of them for 20 miles instead of passing.

That's Minnesota for you, along with all the remaining 90s Pontiacs.

I bet the LockRite on that Volvo makes for an exciting drive on a icy road.

I think Wisconsin has the rest of the Pontiacs that aren't in MN

This seems like a good price.

He doesn't live in woodbury.

Five grand for that Blazer up here (I'm from Minnesota as well) is practically cheap. 

It seems as though I'm not the only one aware of what a E36 M3 show the Minnesota used car market is. I think we have the worst condition highest priced used cars. With a few random exceptions here and there. 

I'm staying tuned- I want MOAR!
