  1. Looking to get back into an SS

    in Off-Topic/General

    Posted

    Well......that was a bust. Drove 35 miles hoping to see something nice and it was far from it. From 10 feet the truck looks good, but up close not so much. Salesman came out and the first thing out of his mouth was that the truck was "mint". Ha....after a quick walk around i found chipped and bubbled paint along the bed rails, clear coat pealing, chips all over the hood and the thing was filthy. He opened up the doors and all I smelled was cigarette smoke....no offense to those that smoke. I popped the hood and it was not detailed and when I started it it had a really bad lifter tick that went away after a few seconds. i asked the dude why he thought it was mint after I pointed out all the issues and he said it was an SS. I said so you guys are asking $22,995 and he said yes. I said well, it is not worth that but it would be about $16,900 all day long. He said that is ok, I can take you back to your car. No problem and off I went. That truck will sit there a while. My search continues.

    Hey Scott,

     

    Welcome back! I hope you do end up with another SS. I sold mine, and I kick myslef everyday.

    Hey man,

     

    Yeah i was looking at old pics the other day and really missed it. I see you have been busy. Nice job on the house. Wife and I just had a home built about 8 months ago.

     

    Welcome back, I saw some pictures here the other day of the old VR you had, such mint paint! I have to say 18k is also above what I would pay but with everything you like on it cannot go wrong and driving it home. Their was a black 03 f/s just under 20k miles.

     

    Edit-Also found a VR 04 w/22k miles down the street from me. "Truck is too damn slow" he says (it is f/s). But he has enough vettes...

    Thanks! The truck was mint when I got it so it was easy to keep clean. did way more to it then i was planning and did not want to drive it. This one will be a driver, but kept just as clean if all works out. Really want an 06, but have seen a lot of 03's out there. Don't want black, already have a black car and it is a pain to keep clean. Would like to stay local to avoid all the shipping issues.

    Hey guys!

     

    Been absent for a while and found myself wanting another SS. Had to let my Victory Red go to get my wife through college and I missed it so much I want another one. I found one locally which sparked my interest. 2006 Silver Birch with 81,000 miles. Truck looks super clean with 3 owners. Came out of Washington to Cali and now it is in AZ. Dealer is asking $22,995 which I thought was a bit high as NADA prices it out at about $18,000. Plan on checking it out tomorrow. Would like to get them way down on price so any advise would be great.

  8. FS: Truck covers

    Hmm, are they a pain in the ass to put on and off several times a week? My truck stays outside unfortunately so i'm trying to think if a way to somewhat protect it and keep it clean.

     

    Thought of one of those car tent things to place over my parking spot, or a cover that I could put on before a storm, and take it off after

     

     

    The cover is large so it takes a few times to get a system down on putting it on. There is a loop at one end that you attach to a part of the bumper or hitch if you have one. Take one corner and pull it down, move to the other side and cover that corner. Pull the cover over the truck to the front or back and secure around the other bumper. You will have to walk to the other side of the truck to get it over the cab. It fits pretty snug. I would always start on the back and move my way forward. After a few times it went pretty quick.

    I have two Empire truck covers for sale. I had these when I had my SS and no longer need them. One is a deluxe version and the other is a waterproof version. These have been sitting in my garage in bags since I sold my truck 2 years ago. They are both clean with no rips or tears. They both have carry bags. These will fit any SS or 1500 extended cab with the same size bed.

     

    Deluxe - Sold

    Water proof - Sold

     

    Thanks,

    Scott

  19. F/S: Fosgate Amp And Diamond Audio Speakers

    in For Sale/ Wanted

    Posted · Edited by scooter3 (see edit history)

    I have a Rockford Fosgate 4 channel amp and Diamond Audio HEX 6.5 component speakers for sale. These were in my SS. Again the SS did not get driven much and I was without a HU for over a year so these do not have a lot of play time on them.

     

    Fosgate P400.4 4 channel amp. I had this running the Diamond Audios and the rear plates. Sounded great.

     

    $200 plus shipping
