If you need a Carfax, pay for it like everyone else does. It is against forum policy to make such requests (as I understand it).

The free info from Carfax:

VIN 1G1YY32G3X5130433
Year/Make/Model: 1999 CHEVROLET CORVETTE
Body Style: CONVERTIBLE
Engine Type: 5.7L V8 PFI OHV
Manufactured In: UNITED STATES
Search Results: 12 records found in our database

As mentioned, the rules prohibit a CARFAX.
You might edit/delete your request to a GM service history request which several members can get for you (during regular work days) or your favorite GM service writer should get for you free.

Default Correction

Since when? I have been a member since this board started and have seen countless requests for this. I also checked the the stickies before posting and failed to notice any prohibited request for a car's background checks.

These days the term "carfax" is almost synonimis with a cars background check.

Thank you for the tip on GM service writers.


Please don't sick the moderators on me. Really did not know. So save the threatening gestures!

"Carfax is used as an example, but, the rule will apply to any similar activity or business."

Upon careful reading of the rules even a request for a service history would be wrong.

No, a GM service history report is very acceptable. There are several members who can do it for you. It may take longer due to the holiday.

I chuckled when I saw the thread title, then saw "sorry" as the first post.
