anybody know who this is? I can't tell if that's a red fox LX or a pontiac grand prix in the reflection of the one pic?

Looks like a gt with turbines to me...Thats seems cheap for that truck. I was pricing these when my car was on the market and possibly looking for a trade. They were asking more than that for higher mileage trucks. Interior looks spotless also.

I got a carfax request in at SVTP. We'll see wassupp.

Wish pricing was like that when I bought my L!

dont forget with the older year ones in that body style there were less threads fro the spark plugs and once you start putting some power to them they start spitting out spark plugs.

OH GAWWD! I'm usually pretty skittish when it come to "known" problems, but I'm not going to let this scare me away.

you gotta watch the boost levels on the earlier ones. Or just play it safe and get a newer one

'04 was the only year with the better heads. I'm not going to limit myself to one year. there's much debate about the 9 (is it 9?) thread heads over at SVTP and all over the innanet!!! the general consensus says it was just '04.
