Default what do you think of this?

Im thinking of possibly purchasing this car. As I haven't owned an LS1 4th gen before so I figured I would post up and see what you guys think of it. Would be my daily driver. I dont care too much about gas mileage, but it would need to be somewhat dependable. I will be going to see it in person tomorrow. Anything I should ask?
Just kinda thrown off by the price so i was wondering if something isnt right here..
Thanks for any help...

Damn, that seems like a pretty good deal. I'd go check it out and test drive it.

That car's exterior is beat to hell. The paint is horrible in some spots. Still....Assuming it's fine mechanically it's still a good deal.

Personally I don't think a high mileage head, cam, stall, 4.10 gear car is your best bet for a daily driver. Maybe you would be fine with it, but it wouldn't be my choice. I'd try to find a lower mileage car that is either stock or only lightly modded. It also doesn't sound like the car was ever tuned after the mods since he mentions the speedo being off from the 4.10 rear.
