in 3 months or so...

I will be looking for another 3rd gen...Most of you know that I wrecked my z etc...I had planned on getting a loan and getting an ls1 but I have decided to go without the loan and just get another 3rd gen...I will have roughly 5k to spend and would prefer a 91-92 z but am open to 87-90 irocs also...Has to be a 350...I would post in the classifieds but dont want to travel across country so I figured this would be a good first place to post...anyways if any of you know of, or hear of anything that fits what im looking for let me know...

Sorry, didnt mean to offend. I forgot to add this to the end of my last post. J/K!!!

Just seems that there are a bunch more clean Formulas up for sale then Zs or Irocs.

I also imagine that you just might end up traveling to find a decent ride, the sun beats the **** out of that crappy thirdgen paint out here.

And not to bash or offend but most thirdgens have spent alot of time in apartment parking lots getting weathered over real good and broken into.

Also, you might want to print out a handfull of letters expressing your interest to drop on cars you like but dont have a FOR SALE sign in the window, letting someone know you have cash in hand can sometimes spark up a sale negotiation.

My neighbors owns a used car lot in Lakeside, he comes here for three days a week or so to go to the dealer auctions, ill have him keep a look out.
