Default Need help finding my daughter a car

To make a long story short my Dad totaled my 16 year old daughter's 95 V6 camaro last Sunday. He hit it with the enclosed race car trailer.

USAA gave us $5300 for the car. We paid $5000.00 for the 95 V6 with 99,000 miles on it 3 months ago.

We have looked on the net within a 100 miles of where we live. Went & looked today at a couple but we had to pass.

Can anyone help us out. We have $5,500 and we are looking for a 98-02 V6 or V8 F-Body. We would also look at a LT1 car.

Coach

Just search cars.com.

I looked for *****+giggles the other day, and within 100 miles of me (may be a drive, but for a deal/nice car, I think it would be worth it); there were like 100 camaros, not including firebirds for sale.

On our Lubbock forum, a good friend has his wife's 95 V6 Firebird for sale.

Wife is selling her 95' white Firebird, auto, 3.4L V6, gray cloth interior, T-tops, power windows, power driver seat, Factory AM/FM radio CD player, cruise control and audio controls on steering wheel, new window motors and regulators, new battery, BFG tires are fairly new with 700 miles. I've got the receipts for the battery and tires still. Tires put on around 85000 miles. Car has almost 85700 miles on it. Wife is a non-smoker(I don't date smokers). She does have a cig burn on the rear seat from one of her friends and on the driver side bump she scuffed a mail box as you can see in the pics. Wife is asking $5000 OBO. PM me if interested and I'll leave a number on the PMs if you want to come by and check it out.





NOW AT $4500 obo

No problemo Coach. We miss the car already, but know it went to a good home. That little pewter car brought home trophies 4 out of 7 trips to the track. Would have been 5/7 except the alternator was on the fritz the last time I tried to race it. Since I put a new one in it, I am sure the Ray family will be pretty dangerous in a bracket match.
