He'll be able to make a couple grand so he should be happy with it. Definitely not a keeper.
What kind of mpg does it get at 100 mph?

That's what I do with a car of unknown soundness and condition. Street race and take it over 110.

18's are gone lol sold everything and saving up for a Yukon or G8 for my job. Just waiting cause I get car allowance.

He said he hates the car haha, but what do you expect when you have beamers and Bentleys.

And 110 is not fast at all, I wont drive out of my comfort zone.

Why would he need help to "get in the game" from someone who is broke with no job if he drive bmws and bentleys.

Also how do you go from, what color should I paint the ss I just bought to I drove home a pos at 110 that someelse bought.

Aren't you the same one that you buy used fbodys for 2500

I don't think he gave 12g's for that car, it only had 4500 on the for sale sign. It's also not an original ss and the hood was cracked.

So he bought a car for full book value, going to pay an amateur to do a halfass paint job, (that will probably lower the value below book), then sell it for 3 times it's worth?
