So, to add to my current string of awful financial luck (haven't worked a steady job since I left Badsax's place for AZ in early October and states refuse to pay unemployment benefits), the Mazda was repossessed today, and sadly I am not expecting to be in a position to get it back within the next ten days.
SO...instead of whine and moan about my credit (or by now the lack thereof), I will be looking for another car once I am working again. Obviously, an LSC is up at the top of my wanted list, probably a 2nd gen. Since there is an extremely active classic car and show scene here, I would sway toward a cosmetically sound "cream puff" rather than a somewhat beat up hot-rodder. After a quick search on auto trader, I've spotted a silver-on-gray '97 with 107k miles for $4k as well as a low-mileage (76k) black-on-black '96, but for $7k, both LSCs. Neither car appears to have a moonroof; a possible deal-breaker, as I prefer to cruise with the windows open and the A/C off, even in the Arizona heat.
If I can't locate a suitable LSC, I may even resort to looking for an LT1 F-body, or if the job situation goes better than expected, possibly an LS2 GTO. (Please, no peanut gallery comments, as I'm allergic. ) Any thoughts or leads?
Thanks, gang!
(Edit) PS: I think it's also worth mentioning that if I can pull off an LSC purchase, there had damn well better be a Vegas meet next year!!
