Seems like a nice deal if the car hasn't been wrecked/painted.

no major body work or wrecks? Wheres the original SS Air box then?...ya know what I mean. Make sure its a real SS (WU8). Do some research before jumping in to anything, but for 4500 cant really lose, thats hella cheap. I would put my money that it probably isnt a reall SS though.

Nice Deal!

WTF I WOULDVE JUMPED ON THAT QUICK.....AND YES IT IS A REAL SS I KNOW ABOUT CAMAROS HAVE BEEN AROUND THEM A LONG TIME AND TRUST ME THIS IS THE REAL DEAL....FROM WHAT I HEARD NOT MANY RED SS LT1'S CAME OUT WITH THE RED/TAN/T-TOP SCHEME

BUT HOPEFULLY I FIND A BUYER FOR MY 71 FORMULA FIREBIRD QUICK O THAT I CAN COMPLETE THE 4,500 AND START TO DETAIL THE CRAP OUTTA THE CAR ONCE I GET IT....THE FACTORY SS AIRBOX WAS STOLEN WHILE THE CAR WAS GETTING A TRANNY FLUSH HERE AT A LOCAL SHOP.....REMEMBER LAREDO IS A VERY SMALL TOWN AND WORD TRAVELS FAST....I PRATICALLY KNOW THE WHOLE HISTORY OF THE CAR ALREADY

MAN IT IS NICE

I WILL TRY TO POST UP PICS

Jesus Steve, You think your Nine-Ball. What the **** do you want another car for? You can't even sell that piece of crap 71 Firebird (he doesn't show you the closeups). The 72 Camaro is collecting spider webs in the back yard. ****, fix that rear bumper on the 99 SS. Now a 97 SS I'm guessing that one will rot at the apartment parking lot. With all that money you've thrown away, you could have had ONE badass car.
