Thats a shame & a mess.

"Car was hit on drivers side by plow passenger side hit two trees Car has no more than 2000 miles since rebuilt"

My question is what was it doing out on the streets in MA when a Plow would be out?

It looks like a lot of damage for a $15000 asking price

Not to me, but that's just my opinion, and what do I know. I think the owner has a real strong belief on the collectability and desireabilityof his 4.9 trans am.

Maybe someday. It sure is clean and well sorted. One thing that I always find kind of odd, though, is after doing all that work they put in those goofy non-stock floor mats.

I started to write this guy to ask if he had any pictures of the car... What are people thinking when the try to sell a car just showing parts of it. Reminds me of that old joke about the blind men trying to describe an elephant by the way a single part of it feels.
By the way, I followed his link to the photobucket site and still the closest he comes to a full photo is a quarter view from the front.
