Blue Book $9,905.00 in Excellent condition....


"Excellent" condition means that the vehicle looks new, is in excellent mechanical condition and needs no reconditioning. This vehicle has never had any paint or body work and is free of rust. The vehicle has a clean title history and will pass a smog and safety inspection. The engine compartment is clean, with no fluid leaks and is free of any wear or visible defects. The vehicle also has complete and verifiable service records. Less than 5% of all used vehicles fall into this category.


Looks good after engine cleanup. If there are no leaks. I'm figuring he has all his service records.

It kind of passed through my mind to get this for my Daughter who is graduating. She has her heart set on a new camaro. I don't think she'd mind a vette but I talked myself out of it as the whole idea of the camaro is a new car. She currently has a 40 year aniiversary 2004 mustang. The vette would save me about 20k.

She'll be going to A&M in the fall. I don't want to be having break downs and such with her up there.

That vette is totally worth that price and somebody should jump on it. Try putting it up on craigslist and see what it gets. I would take it but I don't have the money right now. My LS7 firebird would beat that thing in 2nd gear anyways. :)

My first car was an 83 Fairmont, had it painted black, that thing was a boat, I plowed into the rear end of an Escort once, totaled the Escort, not even a scratch on my Fairmont.

Simple Green works wonders in cleaning things. Very, very strong and biodegradable. Get some interior and tire shine, clean it up real good, and it will sell fast.

@CAP - theres no way a fairmont could touch my firevette. ;)

Thanks for the tips gents. It's not mine as I stated earlier, just doing this as a favor. I'll pass the tips along, and help him with what I can.
