We are leaving early in the morning. We aren't bringing a car but looking for some to buy. We've never been before and don't know really what to expect. Any advice??

is that the turbo V6? if so you got that pretty cheap i bet. it looked to be really nice for the price on the window. i dont remember the number, just remember thinking, wow, thats low. lol but good find. i was looking for a rough 6.6L trans am that drove. for under $5000, but never seen anything close. just trailer queens.

I guess its a matter of what you consider low...they were asking $19,500 for this one which isnt bad for what it is.

There was one white 78 TA there that was a driver that could have been bought for $6500. I mean it was rough but running/driving...anything in the $5000 range is usually not running. Most of the LS1 cars were priced WAY WAY too high...I made a very fair offer on the silver TA with chrome Z06 wheels on it sitting in front of the go karts but I dont think he really wanted to sell it. The yellow CETA was priced fair but it had a salvage title...so there was no way I was buying it. We almost bought a 04 Cobra too but the same thing...salvage title.

Nice pick! I did see a barn find 79 z28 asking 2500 and it was all there, just a little rough. I prob shoulda brought it home. A fender, some paint, and a set of wheels and it was 7500 car prob in the spring.

I'll be back in the spring and i'll prob bring something this time...we just drove a Tahoe and relaxed. We did walk the whole strip on sat though
