As some of you know I'm a parts man at Bankston Chevrolet in Ft Worth. So here I am today at the front counter when up rolls a nice IOM SS. When the guy comes in looking for info about his Camaro he is refered to me so I print out his build sheet. He tells me he just picked it up used with 6200 miles off a Ford lot for cheap. After talking a bit we walk outside and I notice he has SLP LMII mufflers tucked under the rear. When I layed down to look closer I see them.....long tubes. I probly scared the guy demanding him to pop the hood like I did but when he got it open I found what looked like either ARH or Kooks long tubes going into high flow cats, cat back system and a LMR cai. He was stoked to find out but I think I was still more excited. You would have thought it was my car as excited as I got. What a lucky SOB! Anywho I just thought I'd share a good story.

Did he tell you how much he paid for it?

StingrayChevy · 02-20-2010, 12:31 PM

Wow, that's awesome! Wonder how much he got it for...

IndyDave · 02-20-2010, 12:34 PM

Why is everything on this site always about money? I just don't get it.

May be a stupid question, but you can get a build sheet printed out after getting your Camaro? The reason I was asking is because I requested my dealer to save me my build sheet and window sticker but only got the window sticker. I would like to get the build sheet as well to keep with the car when my son inherits it.

Wow.....great..... some clueless dud gets lucky like that awesome. Who the hell doesn't know what in their ride before they buy it used?!?!

I wanna say he told me 33, which is 10k less than it would have been new with his options.

I can print a list of all the option codes that your car had on it with a simple description of each. Nothing fancy but it can tell you alot about a car if you didn't custom order it like this gentleman.
