Default Daughter needs another car!

My daughter wrecked her car last week in big rain storm. Thanks God she is ok but the car 2000 Z/28 is not.

USAA gave us $8700 to buy her another Camaro or Trans Am. Any ideas?

Damn they only give you 8,700? I guess I'd be lucky to get $6,000 for my 98 if it was wrecked.

First off, glad she is ok.

Second, there is an LS1 MBM Formula w/t-tops near me. I am going to check it out tomorrow just for fun. If you want, I can let you know how it is. I also have a couple of friends in NC with LS T/A's for sale around that price.

If she wants to step back down to a V6, I've still got mine that we talked about a few months ago.

I'll sell you a 2001 Mustang GT for a little north of that figure. Needs a clutch and the CD player is on the blink.

See a picture in the link in my signature.
