bought a 98 ss for $4,500
 
I bought a 1998 ss m6 with 49000 for 4,500$. Did not run when i bought it was off the road since 05. The guy said it had chewed wires. Yes there was alot of mouse nest and acorns but no chewed wires. I got it home checked a few things. Changed fuelpump fuse, pcm bat fuse it fired right up:rofl: I will have pics soon but the car is mint. I cant believe i found this car. :drool:

Happy Day for you.

What condition is it in then? Just dirty from sitting? Or was it somewhat taken care of?

ChevyHank 11-30-2008 09:22 AM

just dirty from sitting in a garage for 3 years. I cleaned it and buffed the paint it looks new.
The guy said it woulnt start one day so he pushed it in the garage and left it.

yea, thats what I do when 7 year old sport cars randomly break. Push them aside and leave them for years.

I was actually going to buy that car, but someone i know wouldn't let me borrow a trailer and then the bank gave me a run around. Its a mint ass car and still has the slp floormats in the trunk right. well goodluck with car man.
