I don't mind dumb ads like this. It makes the prices of LT1s go up. Slowly.

Yep. Mine never goes above 180 in the summer unless in stop/go and then its highest is 200. Don't understand why anyone would run hot with a LT1 unless they had no earthly clue what they were doing.

I'm in Canada where prices are way higher. I bought my 95 eight years ago with 80k miles on it for 8500. It was and still is super clean.

When I sold my 97 last fall there were dealers selling lt1s for thousands more than mine with close to 2x the miles. Sold my 97 with 65k for $6500. Probably could have got another $1000 for it but the people that were going to pay that price were getting way to picky for me. Wanted me to install the AC (pita) and fix the ABS. (ls1 12 bolt) I was just happy it sold so fast, only took a month.

Looks like a $4500 car to an enthusiast (knowledgeable buyer). Either the dealer is ignorant or he is just hoping for an ignorant customer to wander by.

That's b/c Canadian money is valued less than the American dollar, despite the fact that for about 2 years now, the exchange rate has the American dollar worth less than a Canadian dollar. Makes about as much sense as Obama's policies.

More so than that, to capture the attention of those who have no idea. If anyone asks the salesperson can make up some bullshit story. No one anymore, and perhaps even that dealer, knows the VIN can be used as reference.

I sent an email to the seller asking why it was being advertised as an SS, and this was their response.

"It's not that is a sub title it is used to draw in ebay shoppers to a item. A seller uses this line to draw in people looking for similar items. such as an SS camaro or the camaro police interceptor as this one is."

I obviously have weak EBay skills.

What was the code for police interceptors? I don't even see that "fact" mentioned anywhere in their ad. And weren't the police cars six speeds? I know the dealer where I bought mine had one of those on their lot. They let me drive it, and it was a six speed. Were they called b4c, or something like that?
