Attn: Fellow Polk County F-Body owners

Can you please keep an eye out for a decent F-Body for sale? I will be buying another car within the next month. Here are the details:

https://ls1tech.com/forums/florida-m...m6-f-body.html

I'd like to hit one of your meets sometime, but it'd look funny with me rolling up in my DD. I need a Trans Am or Camaro...

Thanks everyone.

I paid $4500 for mine. Granted it has 140,000 miles, and the paint isnt all that great. It was still a good deal. It runs strong, and im happy with it
