It’s always interesting when a car that we’ve featured on Barn Finds in the past suddenly pops up for sale again. That is the case with this 1987 Cutlass GT, which graced our pages back in November 2017. Previously featured in this excellent article written by Andrew Tanner, the GT is back on the market. Located in Holiday, Florida, you will find it listed for sale here on eBay. At the time of writing, bidding has reached $5,100, and it appears that the reserve is off.

When we last featured this Cutlass GT, it had covered 24,000 genuine miles. Since then it doesn’t appear that it has done a pile of work, as the mileage now sits at 25,000. When the GT was last featured there was some conjecture over whether this was a factory option or a dealer package. Barn Finder Graham set us on the right track back then, and a bit of digging has confirmed that the GT was a cosmetic enhancement that was performed by Tops & Trends in North Carolina, and was produced in both 1987 and 1988. In 1987 there were 267 GTs built, while the total for 1988 was 280. This particular car is said to be completely original and rust-free. The presentation of the car is very impressive, with no real issues to report. It’s just a very nice looking, clean car.

Under the hood is the 307ci V8 engine, which is backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission. The car also features power steering, power brakes, and ice cold air conditioning. These were not a high-performance engine, but they are still a reasonably smooth engine that provides adequate power for cruising and overtaking. The engine bay looks really clean on this one, with little in the way of discernable changes since the car last graced the site.

Similarly, the interior doesn’t appear to have changed much in the recent past. That deep burgundy velour is very much the type of color and material that would be common in the 1980s, but it’s a color that still looks good today. The car is fitted with a tilt wheel, power windows, and cruise control. While it may look a bit dated now, back in 1987, this would have been pretty much the height of style, luxury, and good taste. The great thing about this particular car is that while cars from this era were very susceptible to deterioration of interior trim materials and plastics, it looks good in this car, and the only real fault that I can pick is some wear on the edge of the seat-belt.

It’s only about a week ago that we actually saw this 1988 GT come across our desks, and while it was nowhere near as nice as our feature car, it actually sold for $5,000 as I was writing this article. The last time that this particular car was for sale, we know that the bidding had reached $12,800 when the article was written, but we can’t be sure what it eventually sold for. This is one that I’m going to watch carefully because it will be interesting to see whether it sells for more or less than it did last time.
