And sell it to me. I have two already, but the end of the tip is cut a little different, and it's obvious when they are side by side. They must differ through the years, if I get a third one, it should match one that I have already. It's for a Camaro exhaust project.
I could do that

Bucket's a mod, you weren't trying to sell stuff, we were trying to buy it.

That's hard to say, I'd really only need a few parts off of it, well want.

The whole rear end, the caliper brackets in the front, wheels, the bumper covers if they were in decent shape and the fogs.

That rear end is what I would need to go to the 8.6 since 06+ had 4 channel ABS gear ratio matters too since I have a 4x4 and need to keep both the front and the rear the same.
The LWB and all V8 models got slightly bigger front brakes but still use the same caliper, just a different mounting bracket.

You can get a lot more money by selling it in parts, 06+ LT stuff is hard to come by.

Wish you went so far away! The front bumper cover is trash but fogs are still good. I have the car on craigslist right now and believe I have the head sold off the motor but that's the only interest so far

Good price for you because it's out of your way but also a good price for the buyer as there appeared to be some good parts left on it :)
