Who all's from here? I know I've talked with a couple of you guys already..

I'm in Grayslake. Currently driving the Jeep in my avatar and sig, but aspire to own a LS1 come spring time.

*Edit: Now own a '98 Z/28!*

Post up where you're located and what you drive!

Completely stock regular T/A, body and all, clean and clear title, no body work whatsoever...Carfax says 1 owner from Northbrook for 7 years, 106,000 miles.

They wanted $8,900 two hours ago, he just called and said they could do $7,250... I'm like WTF... I'm gonna call 'em back, but I'm not going to get it unless I got someone to look it over... I don't know why they'd drop so much, something's gotta be wrong with it that they're not telling me.

Yeah man at that mileage I would shy away from it. UNLESS it was taken care of extremely well. Main thing is pull the dipsticks for the oil and trans fluid and see what that looks like.

Im sure someone will help you out but yeah its weird they came down that low thats not right
