First thing that makes me suspicious is that it's a NV area code for a car in Los Angeles.

That's gotta be fake that's a pic if a car on here. It has CME, he did a thread on the smooth door lock things a while back. No way he's sellin it for that.

thats a nationally known fbody right there! mags and shows and everything... and the owner is actually a member on this board. I think the guy who is selling the car, just grabbed a pic of an SS (that is good looking) to give the buyer an idea of what the car looks like, maybe becuase he doesnt own a camera???... i dunno.

I play the bullshit card.

Nobody would sell a clean title, 32k, V8 fbody that looks that nice for $5300. Hell, even a 1993 LT1 with 32k and in mint shape would fetch way more than $5300.

Reminds me of when I was first looking for an f-body and came across an ad for a Carl Black Blackbird for a ridiculous price. It was actually the first time I heard about the Blackbird and ever since then, I've wanted one.

Anyways, I contacted the seller and if my memory serves me correct, he stated he was in England and had the car in storage in the US. Once I sent the money via Western Union to England, I could get the car. I bet you'll get a similar con if you contact this seller.

So send me $5300 and account information, and I send you car and $14,864,098,031,127.56.

You will be helping me and the great people of the country of Nigeria.

I remain respectfully yours,
