In my experience if you take the VIN to your local Chevy Dealer and tell them you plan on having the car serviced there they will run a Carfax for you for free. You can also take the VIN to the Chevy Dealer's Service Department and they can tell you what service and recall records are in the main GM database for that vehicle - also for free.

Buy it on eBay. There are dealerships that will provide you with a Carfax for a couple of bucks instantly on eBay. A Toyota dealership out of Virginia just did one for me when I bought my Vette. I was sceptical but it was quick and easy.

Dang - nice find! I've never even thought of looking on eBay! Like a sucker I've paid full price for a few of them.
