Needs a lot of work and obviously neglected. I would say your price is much more reasonable. They are looking for a sucker.

For an LS1 car, I doubt your going to get them into the $3k region. Without seeing it, it is tough to say, but $4,500 sounds good to me. From how you describe it, seems as though it could be a good car to mod heavily and take her down the track. By the time you have $10k total into the car, you'll have a really nice lookin race car. Anyway, I definitely wouldn't give them what they want for it and the new paint is suspect to me. Probably a good old Maaco job. That kind of mileage isn't too bad for the year, if it were close to me I'd consider it. Good Luck.
