Default Is this TA worth it????

I found a
1999 Transam WS6
6 speed/ 70k miles/383 stroker/heads and cam/and 3.73's. The body looks in real good shape and all.
He's asking $13.5k for it, is it worth it? I know the market is LOW for this cars, but this being a ws6 and all
Should I consider it or look somewhere else??

Actually when this guy bought it, he didn't even know what he bought. He doesn't know anything about LS1's. He bought it and then was confused why the car would get low gas mileage, he only drives the car like 100 miles every 3 months. Hes been having it for like 2 years. Its funny, he bought the car because it sounded nice. The seller gave him all the specs about the car, but he doesn't know what all those things mean.lol
He doesn't exactly know how many miles are on the built motor.
I test drove it and that thing moves!!! I believe it also has a Moser 12 rearend.
