Owner 4 sounds like a responsible guy.

lol...I was gonna say the same thing. 2 "accidents" in 6 months, and that second one was his own numnut move.
I wouldn't be too sure that he babied the thing much.

Way over priced. Unless you do all the work yourself it would cost you 3 Grand to get that to be worth 7K. A decent body man can hide a lot of real damage and make it hard to detect. The person that did the work on this car is not bodyman so not only do you have to worry about what he might try to hide you have to worry about what he missed. Pannels being mis-aligned can be because the guy is clueless and does not know how to install them or because they will not line up because of a structural issue. This car was not someones baby, she was rode hard and put away wet. Chances are the driveline got the same kind of care.

For that kind of money you should be able to find a higher miles garage kept baby Z28. You know one of those ones that has never seen rain and got constantly washed and waxed. Heck I have seen a couple very well kept cars with the clear coat pealing for 5K.

"It has a clean title and CarFax is available"

I love this line, They figured out how to get the word clean and car fax in the same line without lying. Got to wonder how many people miss read a line like that. I can imagine some kid that wants a LS1 and love the color scheme telling his mon "It has a clean title and CarFax" and they both are available!. First time I read it I was like "I see what you did there" before I read the rest of the thread I knew there was issues with the Carfax.
