Yes it does run I just got back from Minnesota and drove it the entire 1400miles back down here. The previous owner sold it because it has a noisy valve, and a garage told him it was a lifter and it was gonna be $3.5K to fix it. I wasnt thinking about it until after I bought the car and was already in Iowa when I remembered EG33's are DOHC So no engines problems what so ever, the tranny has some problems but im thinking its a brake band adjustment. I kinda feel bad for getting the car for so cheap and then finding out he sold it for no reason. It needs alittle work here and there but its in pretty good condition, Ill post pictures of it with the other two soon.

I've got some pictures of the pearly from last time I was up there (back in sept, the car was parked about 2 weeks after I left also). Its got alittle bit of body rust, but its not bad.

My camera isnt to good with low-light situations, and the rear wheels are on backwards which I fixed 10mins after buying the car.

On a side note, if anyone wants to see hundreds of pictures of Minnesota and Lake Superior just ask. I've got acouple pictures of Duluth Bay frozen over but those are still on my camera which is still in Minnesota with my mom.

Congrats!!

yay! I get to see it today. I think its amazing you got the car so cheap... I mean I know our cars aren't worth much but c'mon! Still a sweet deal and I'm glad its to someone that cares about fixing it up for driving rather selling it all for scrap.
I always wonder when I see all those SVX parts on eBay... "could that SVX have been saved?? what was sooo wrong with it?" A new tranny or engine.. yeah its a little pricey but with a new engine or tranny its like a new car again.. and how often can you get a car this great, that cheap?? You know what you get for this price.. an Oldsmombile Ciera
can you imagine how cool you are driving this??

I can't imagine replacing my car with anything else... if I could afford to own more than one, I would... and eventually will I want a pearlie too.

ok I'm off my soapbox.. :-P see you & the pearlie later Dustin.

Ten times uncool with the Ciera... Same most everything as the Celebrity, and if the headlights and grille were missing, I might mistake it for my old Cavalier, or any of the other J-body or N-body of the era.

Which reminds me... how much is the Cadillac Cimarron selling for lately? EDIT: $800, if perfect, equipped with the 3-speed auto and power driver's seat. Sweet!
