Bought this T/A for my wife....

One owner 63 year old lady who only drove it to carshows. No, seriously, she would only sell to another lady and had to believe the the car would be loved and cared for like she did. Her son told us that she had turned 20 other buyers away and when we signed the title she cried and hugged my wife and made her promise to love the car. This is our first LS car and are looking forward to keeping it in good shape and modernizing it some along away. We are currently upgrading the Monsoon system and full suspension build. The original owner let the car sit for about 2 years due to health and age issues. She put the wheels on and a catback exhaust.

Welcome! Very nice TA you have there. I love the navy blue ones. I got mine from a 83 year old man lol. Mine was a two owner and he had owned it for many years. Those cars are still out there.
