Thanks, yeah she did not take care of it, did not know how to drive it. Literally after first looking at it, i was going to walk away. But she said if i buy it this week, she will sell it for 9k… Which i thought was a good deal. I also swapped out the radiator for a low mile one because it was leaking, but unfortunately i believe the heater core is leaking, which requires pulling the entire dash out. She also said the rear spoiler was at her grandmas house, but then never responded to me after asking about it. ---

why do you think the heater core is leaking? heat blew great, didn’t smell, etc. ---

These things are notorious for leaking when it rains around the door seals. The plastic sheet stick on stuff that on most cars is just for dust is important for keeping water out on these too. Yay GM. ---
