I thought about taking a look at this car, but I don't have the free time to go see it.

Needs a Moonroof and most likely the roof liner. There'* a moonroof on ebay, The guy never mentioned if this car has a salvaged title. I think that he got this car from a junk yark, because that where he said the other parts are located. There isn't a moonroof installed in the car at this moment.

Might be worth looking at. But with a missing moon roof, and other problems, not sure if it'* worth $2000. He doesn't say what engine it has. A L67 might be worth the price, otherwise, he'* asking to much in my opinion.

No its not. Its an SE with options, possibly the 1SG (or something like that) package that outfits the SE with everything the SLE has except bumper covers and side trim.

That actually seems to me like a nice deal. For $2000, it could be worthwhile to pick up a sub-87K mile Bonneville, supercharged or not, and fix up the sunroof to have a decent daily driver. Those wheels could sell for hundreds, and assuming you can pick up a set of 16" or 17" wheels and tires on CL for $200, you could have those wheels pay for a fixed sunroof and part of the liner.

He may have said there are tons of parts available in a junkyard, but I doubt that would mean he found the car there as well. I have lots of junkyard parts both on and off my car, and JYs are very useful places. By saying that there'* "not a moonroof installed," do you mean that there'* a hole in the roof?
