Default Carfax help please?

I am considering a 2 owner car and was wondering if someone could please run a CarFax for me possibly? I was told the car was first owned by a GM executive who had the hood painted because of a blemish but the top of the passanger door also looked whiter than the white molding. It looks like a nice driver quality car with 43,000 miles, base seats with a nice interior. Car has some curb rash on one wheel and the glass top has a some small spidering but overall a well taken care of vehicle. Just needs a few odds and ends and cleanup Vin # is 10 I appreciate the help. ] thank you

John

Not allowed by forum rules. You've been a member 6 years and have not learned that?

NO, was not aware that you could not ask fellow forum members help in running a carfax...I do not know why this would be against forum rules as this is to help with the purchase of a car. I though that helping one another is part of what this forum is about. If this is indeed against forum rules I apologize and yes; I am an active member for 6 years and 5 corvettes later. Save the Wave!

Here's the link to the rules, which most of us don't read until we get bit by something!

That said, what SOMETIMES happens before the thread gets locked is someone with carfax capability sends a PM to the poster with the info he requests even though publicly it's not acknowledged. (Sorry, I don't have a carfax account )

Yes, I wave too!
