I never heard of a 4-speed C6 before. That's got to be worth 10 grand alone. The rest of the truck is the typical 1-grand-special.

The Transmission,
C6 4 speed automatic. The transmission was rebuilt when the engine was built. The transmission works awesome. I should say it feels new. It does have a small gasket leak.

So... is it a C6 or a 4 speed? :hmm:

Come on guys $12k is a steal! It has the ultra rare 4-speed C6, and apparently has animal sound effects (purrs like a kitten :lol:). Plus you've got to figure in the whole recession thing, as well as it being Christmas time thing when people are strapped for cash that makes it worth even more :wink:.

Now I am just asking a question here but if you fellas were selling a truck and two primary selling points were a "rebuilt" transmission and "428 Cobra Jet" don't you think you'd try to take a picture of said transmission and 428?

Just askin...

That said, I'd probably want over 12,000.00 for mine, and if I took those same two pictures it wouldn't look that good... :wink:

wheather he is asking too much or not. i wouldn't give that because it isnt even a nicely fixed up truck. like you see on ebay that go for over 10,000. as far as the engine. i don't like to buy gas.

I cant find the post now but a guy had a 71 CS listed on criagslist for 24,000 and he said at the bottom " yes its 24,000 now 2,400" It really did floor me. I had to email him. All I asked was "does it come with the goose that lays golden eggs?" He acually responded with " in ten years it will". 24,000 for a CS it really blew me away. it was all stock i think it had 70k og on it. 360, c6 haha it was great if I can find the posting ill put it here but it was worth mentioning.
