Default Need Help Looking for My First 2nd Gen

I'm looking for a second gen. I love these cars but I just can't find a good site to look for them on. I need a site like autotrader or something. But don't say autotraderclassics cuz I haven't had much luck with it. I saw about a 79 that was silver with orange for sale the other day but was on the way to work so couldn't stop.Love at first site haha. Planned on stopping on the way back but it wasn't out again. Broke my heart. So if anyone has any good suggestions on a good site for these cars I would appreciate it very much. Thanks.

Not sure where Silver Lake is, but I'd check the local Craigslist. I found this one in Kansas City, and looks like a super bargain price! Might have to take a drive.

And here's a bunch more:

i picked up my 78 with a 350 crate and 4spd muncie for a grand off of eBay, the interior needs work and has a little rust, carb needed a rebuild, but well worth the money

If I lived back there I'd take a serious look at the green one. I could easily own two of them, and make one so radical it could barely be called street legal!

Found a car I'm pretty interested in. Tell me what you think of the car in general. And also of what kind of horsepower it might be putting out with the cam, lifters, etc.

I'm afraid I couldn't hazzard a guess, because the info is too generic to tell you. No specs on the cam, intake, or carb size. Literally a wild guess wouldn't even be close.
