Default Opps! Forgot to lock the doors

LOL this is kinda funny. My wife and I drove by a local dealer last night and seen a 4th gen 93-97, burgandy hard top sitting on a local lot. She told me to go and take a look at it today while I was out and about. So I did. Get there find a sales man and tell him we are looking for a Camaro to make into a toy, he finds keys and we go out to the car. Now the windows are tinted so needless to say we were both suprised that the front seat was missing! The guy showed the car to a couple yesterday and they drove it and he knew it had a seat in it. He asked the shop if they were working on it and no one there had a clue. OOPS! They were asking $4500, I offered them $1500 as is, without driving it.

It needs a pass rocker, (the rocker is destroyed under the qtr so the qtr panel will also have to be repaced) and the front bumper cover was "stitched" up wth zip ties. The car has a few issues but I think that is a reasonable price for not driving it and taking my chances. I might have offered him more had I been able to drive it!

Dealership just called me back. They caught the theifs and the seat will be back later today. They parked the get-a-way truck right in front of one of the CCTV cameras and it caught the license plate # clear as a bell. I am going to go back and check the car out later.

Haha what tards. That's a very interesting story though. According to the dealership the car is at least driveable...but so was Sof and look what's happened with her. What is it anyway, v6 or v8?

1994 Hardtop 3.4 V6 and it is one of the strongest sounding 3.4s I think I have ever ran into aside from when they were on the lot with 10 miles on them. K&N CAI and Z28 exhaust

Nothing special in the interior

what, no milk crate? are you sure it wasnt handicap accessable?

that also makes for an interesting state inspection here in pa. its required to have a driver's seat and seat belts. how do you test drive a handicap car when you dont have a wheel chair?
