Our friend on here who runs all the factory option codes from the vin and tells you when its been in service, says it's never been to chevrolet. Im not really worried because it was owned by a rich dude...I was glued to the computer watching this...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

And finally i won...it will cost me slightly more then what he stopped it at...but i think for the car its a great deal, it has almost every option...

Ok im very excited, i have 24 hours til I go and see it. and as long as everything goes as planned im owning it yey
