WOW!! So that's what a stock SS looks like. i had already forgotten what they looked like. Isn't it kinda funny when you see a stock car. Everytime I see a stock SS i'm like " damn, that car looks kinda wierd." But then I remember that's how they car.
Good job by the way on only having 1K miles on it. Good way to save money on gas!!

My '98 has been sitting for most of the last 9 years. It has zero bushing issues.
Anyway, driving them wears out bushings just as much as not driving them.

the only thing i'd really worry about on that car is the battery cables. my 02 T/A is very low mileage and the battery cables were completely corroded when i got it.

What do you guys do? Just buy these car's and let them sit in a garage except for like once a month? I've only had my car for like 2.5 months and i've already put on 2200 miles.
These cars are meant to be driven...all cars are meant to be driven..what other purpose do they serve?
