Hey all, just bought first Ls!

Sold my 1989 GTA for $6k and bought this baby for $7k!

1998 Trans Am, Ls1, T56, everything works like new!

Its a 1 owner vehicle.

Motor was new at 50,000km due to rod knock issue, showed me bill.
Have bill of sale and all paperwork.
Car has 299,000 on it, trans was just rebuilt with new clutch (have paper work)
EVERYTHING done at GM
Only driven in summer but on long family trips.
Guy has owned 83 TA, 91 GTA, this 98 and now a G8 GT he just bought.
Everything works like new
All new suspension, new brakes and calipers, new tires
Bought it safteyed and etested for $7000.

Figured it was a pretty good deal so I jumped on it.

Pick it up either Tonight or Monday!

Beautiful car. Never really looked twice at a blue one till I bought one. Might be my favorite color other that SOM or black. Welcome.
