1985 El Camino for sale

Howdy!
Up for sale is my baby, a grey 1985 Chevy El Camino. I bought this car a year ago when I was a senior in high school as a cruiser, now the reality of college and finances have set in!!! I don't have the room, time, or money to keep going on this project. I don't want to waste anyone's time so I'll describe it as best as I can.

Vital Stats -1985 Chevy El Camino
-305 (5.0l) V8, still stock with 154k. No scary hack jobs here!
-4 speed auto tranny, A/C and heat, power steering and power brakes.
- Working cruise control!

The good -Literally zero rust
-Engine runs, car drives straight, stops quick.
-Tranny shifts smooth, no problem with any gear.
-Tagged and inspected
-A/C and heat work.
-Bedliner
-Trailer hitch
-Amazing interior
-Decent paint, Maaco job a few years old
-Brand new hubcaps
-ALL of the chrome trim is in excellent shape and mounted! It took me MONTHS to find replacement parts.
-New plugs
-New wires
-New oil and filter
-New air filter
-New fuel filter
-New belts
-New straight pipes, nice and loud!

The bad -Engine has carb/fuel issues. The engine runs strong but will sputter if you hit the gas to hard. Carb probably needs to be built. Otherwise, engine is solid.
-Driver's side door needs work, the inside door handle is broken so you have to open it through the window, and the mirror is locked in one place. I have a replacement mirror, just never put it in.
-The previous owner did some creative wiring to add some rear speakers. The radio does work, but it's a little touchy on the volume, it will get staticy at certain volumes. Self-solving issue if you are going to add a CD player.
-Both doors sag a little, but open and close just fine.
-The gas gauge is finicky, it works, but when it says you are empty you really have about 7 gallons left.
-The trip meter is broken.
-3 of the 4 tires are in good shape, hold air and have good tread, but one is the spare that I put on which is almost bald and mismatched. You can't tell with the hubcaps on (it's on in the pictures.) Even so, I have the 4th rim and tire, it probably just needs a new valve stem.
-When I was re-doing the exhaust, the catalytic converter's innards were so old and rotted from running rich b/c of the carb that they fell out on the driveway in chunks. The converter case is still on the exhaust system, so you'll probably pass if you use some emissions fluid before you go.

80's model el camino's dont have much collection value in general, as the 80's was when they started implamenting alot cuts in production quaility from the frame construction to 305 engine (worst SBC ever made). Also taking into account the halfassed implamented CCcarb and Emission systems. Normally you see them sell for 2000 to 5000 in good condition. The early late 60's to early 70's el camino supersports however have a much higher price tag.

Stock engine wise your correct. However the smallest gen1 W series BBC was a 348 (easily rebored to 350). Though i dont think anyone in there right mind would stick a 1953 engine into a late 70's vehical. So chances are hes refering to a gen3 SBC 350.
