    because they have put soooo much money and time into making it a drag car, you have to pay big if you want them to let go of their finished project
    '04 Chevy Silverado LT 4x4 - intake, headers, full exhaust, zo6 cam, 799 heads, tune, leveled, 33's
    '00 Grand Prix GTP DAYTONA 500 - L36 block, S1X, intercooled, GenV, N*, headers, full exhaust, coilovers, 5 speed swap, stage 3+ clutch

    I feel ya on that When i bought my truck i called and looked at so many and so many folks lied about the cars condition or registration and all kinds of bs

    I probably wasted 500 miles of driving and 20 hour time before i found my truck

    Same thing when i went and bought my gtp..

    Try buying a house thats even worse

    Well I have had the same thing happen to me aswell but just do what I am doing. I put a WANTED ad out on craigslist and I have gotten probably ten people that were interested in selling there cars. Some of them were not even posted or anything. They will just come across the ad and think maybe they would like to sell their car. Being that we are from minnesota finding a nice one will take some time. Good Luck.
