Sold the SS last week...
Sad to see her go, but I finally sold my ride last week. Didn't get what I had hoped, but not too far off. Just dissapointed at how much this car lost in value in 4 years, especially with all the additions I had on her and being in excellent shape. I totalled it up the other day and it came to about $2K of mods...
The new owner was certainly excited to pick it up as he wanted to find a car that he could take out for a few "track days" per year. i certainly think this car is worthy! So fun to wind it up and make a run down some rural twisty roads... It handled like a dream! Those Nitto tires I had added were fantastic!
Been nice socializing and posting on this board and will certainly try to stay in touch here. Now starts the search for a mid size SUV. Need a nice tow vehicle!

If I would have traded in I probably would have held some of the stuff back, but I wouldn't do that with this private party purchase.

Actually, the "Black Hoe" has been a great tow vehicle from one end of the States to the other! She is getting pretty old and tired though. I have it torn down in the garage now with the dreaded intake manifold gasket failure! Front diferential seals leaking bad now also. I need something more reliable with beter MPG...
