Default 1999 WS.6 Trans-Am

I have been contemplating the idea of putting up my Ram Air TA on the Vehicle Classifieds for a Camaro SS that is at least equal to my car. I have an '02 TA that I have been modding and will probably stick with it for a while, so I really don't need the WS.6 but I just wanted to get anyone's input if there may be potential for it or if I'd be better to just sell outright; Sorry, but I don't have any recent pics "yet" Have to pull it from storage;

1999 WS.6 Trans-Am
69k Miles
Black
A4
Leather
Chrome (or what I believe is polished) factory wheels
NO MODS / Blank Canvas (As some like to say)

Car drives great and runs as strong as one should for a non-modded car. Taken well care of. The paint shines really well. Tires have about 50% tread left. Window motors are going out. Only other thing I can think of that could be bad is that when you go over a rough bump there is some squeaking from the rear area. Maybe a weak shock? Weak spring? Sway bar endlinks perhaps? I haven't looked into it yet, but it doesn't affect the ride at all except for being annoying. I owned a '00 Z28 for a long time and sold it. Been wanting an SS ever since so I thought maybe I could get an even trade going if it seemed logical. What do ya'll think?

the squeaking is coming from the sway bar bushing. Spray some WD40 and it should quiet the squeak. I don't see why you couldn't get about $9500 for it.

I would not limit myself to trades. Why do that to yourself? What are the odds you will be happy with the one or two cars (and owners) that come forward to take you up on the trade? Some will even try to take advantage of the situation. It totally shuts the door on so many other SS cars you might like. Sell it and then take your pick of colors, mileage, condition, etc... from all 50 states if you so desire.
Yes, it takes effort to sell, but get it detailed up, fix the minor issues and you will find a buyer, especially for a 'stock' car with 69k miles. Then you have 'cash in hand' to negotiate for any SS you like. Best of luck!
