It probably has around 98k on it now, it had 97,6xx (or was it 96,7xx?) when I sold it to him. The car has been in a couple of small wrecks and one unknown wreck before I got it. It was a good car to me for the 5 years I had it and it treated me well. I was looking to get out of it quick to pick up a truck, but the truck route didn't pan out.

the car has 97,400 miles on it now, picked up with 96,800. the paint is about borderline to the point where you would say it needs a paint job because there are alot of surface scratches that just wont come out of the clear coat and are nearly down to the paint. the trunk doesnt like to open, the hood and fender dont line up quite right and like he said already its been in several wrecks that show up on the carfax and on the car itself in minor ways. i re wired the stereo with all new speaker wire and got rid of the buzzing noise and put new sail panel speakers in. the car still hates to idle, ill have to sit with it for a good thirty seconds before i can put it into gear. i went ahead and put new header gasketts and connector gaskets on the headers to be safe because the car was making alot of noise. i think if he would have asked anymore for the car he would have had alot of tire kickers telling him what it was worth and what he should fix and what was wrong. at the very least he can sleep a lil better at night knowing its in good hands

its perfect for what i needed it to do, drive me to school from dallas to lubbock once in a while and make loud v8 noises on the rare ocassion i drive it around lubbock. i must admit i love the shocks, i have never ridden in a fbody that rides this smooth down the highway
