Seriously looking at it, but it looks like the anti-freeze is green. I know it should have dex-cool so I think I will steer clear just looking for opinions.

Price is good and it looks clean. He could have just converted back to the green stuff.

Says posted by dealer, no mileage listed, area code is Oregon. More than likely got it on a cheap trade or repo so who knows how well its been taken care of. Could have been a buy back from blown engine?
All sorts of reasons to ask for the dealership to provide you with a full carfax.

Says 50k miles in the jumbled post actually. My only beef is that it is an automatic I guess.

It is not a problem Mike The New G05 looks green at times and gold at others. First thing I thought of is what Don posted. Where are the original wheels. I like the onse it has on it but would want the old wheels to.

Nice ride! 55-62 and then 64-67 are my favorite Vettes. The new ones are really nice cars but don't have half the character of the older ones.
