Seriously, I'm not jokin. Make an offer, it will most likely be yours. If I don't get one soon I'm going to have to resort to autotrader.

I am a little too far from Illinois, unless you want to make a drive to Michigan??? I would say its a couple of hours, but I don't know for sure.

Any offer close to $3000 and the car is yours......c'mon people! School is fast approaching.

I have a car lined up already but tell me what you have.

I just got done helping my friend install a new cam in his 383 LTI, and after driving that I'm having second thoughts, but school is coming up so I'm gonna sell this if I can...

So I'm up at school and my dad is currently storing the car. I have another car now so I need this one gone. Make me an offer and we can surely make a deal.

The car is currently near Detroit, MI (Eastpointe to be exact, or 10 and Gratiot). The car needs a new power steering pump, and the windshield wipers are somehow always on unless you disconnect the wire from the motor. The car otherwise RUNS GREAT and HAS A TON OF NEW PARTS!!!! If you're interested, let me know, I have a ton of extras with it too!

tranny?

I've been looking for a good rebuilt 700r4 for while. I've managed to find a couple on the classifieds, but they are either sold already or the out of state guys have a stick up their *** about shipping. I guess thats understandable, but I really dont wanna drive 6 hours to indianapolis.

Anyways... would you be willing to sell the transmission? or any other parts seperately for that matter?

I think it would be too much of a hassle to try to part out the whole car. I'd rather take an offer on the whole car, as it is a very solid car that is in AMAZING shape for being 21 years old. Sorry...
