is an 89 iroc with t-tops a 5.7 faded paint, and a bad starter worth 2000 dallors?

Yes.

How is the rest of the car? Is the interior faded along with the paint? I bought an 88 out of L.A. that needed some work for $1k a couple of years ago. $2k might be pushing the limit if the car isn't drivable. Pics would help a lot. How many miles? Is it registered still or is it flagged as inop?
