Sounds like for some reason they always seem to flakes out on the deal... How stupid are they???? Its cuz the average buyer isnt as "in tune" (no pun intender) as us guys who actually own what they are interested in. WE know their birth, we've seen every ad and review ever done, we know what it can and cannot do... We know what to do to it to make it better, faster, and what makes them not work at all. We know know their true worth. Period.
I know we all try n make a few bucks but just think about this... The next generation of people who finally see how cool these rides are, and want them for nostalgic reasons like, "My Dad or Grandfather had one", exempt are US hardcore purists... Will be buying OUR cars.
Our cars will be around far longer than we will be, (hopefully).... And us purists, and i call us that for the obvious reason is we are here, our cars will be owned by people we will never know....becuz of the care and money we invest in them, will last longer than most others..and we gotta face it....they are gonna have their way with it... and theres nothing we can do... Lol... Sorry im just stoned and was thinking bout that lol

1 of 18 "Holy Grail" 2009 SS Panel: Canadian Delivery!
You're right; it'll take someone who appreciates the time, money, planning, and execution of how I've advanced/maintained the value of this vehicle!
A couple years ago, I paid $16k for this fully documented SS Panel in need of serious maintenance.
Previous owners installed a matching rear seat w/seat belts, thru-the-mirror back-up camera, and the center dash RPD (in addition to the A-pillar gauge).
I procured and installed the following:
Reconditioned factory SS wheels, new tires (BFG G-Force), and new TPM sensors, Replaced curb-rashed wheels and worn tires.
New stainless cat-back exhaust/muffler (ZZP); Replaced leaking, rusty exhaust.
New aluminum intercooler (ZZP). Replaced cracked plastic factory.
New headlights. Replaced cloudy ones.
New fuel lines. Replaced rusty and leaking lines
New Battery. Replaced 6-yr. old battery
Used fuse block (N/A new). Replaced corroded fuse block (dealer diagnosed $$$)
New turn signal switch. Replaced non-cancelling unit.
New brake pads and rotors. Replaced worn pieces.
New serpentine belt and tensioner. Replaced 12-yr. old originals.
Other items were not "necessary" (spare "ZZP-Tuned ECM, rear panel carpeting, etc) not to mention hours of cutting/buffing/waxing the exterior.
I figured I wouldn't loose too much at $20k.
If somebody wants any SS Panel, they aren't cheap; nobody is giving them away. And this one is even more "exclusive"!
