How's it going . I was talking to a buddy of mine earlier and he told me about a 99 Chevy tracker his neighbor has. She is an older lady and she took the tracker to get inspected. They looked at it and told her that they would not inspect it because the frame is rusting out . they gave her a number to a junk yard , she called and they said they would pick it up in the morn for $200 . she said OK . I did some research and I found that there was a recall on them because the front cross member on many did not get the proper anti corrosion treatment and they rust out around the control arm bracket and will separate from the cross member. I told my buddy to call her and tell her I'll give her $300 for it. So he did and I'm going in the morn to take a look at the rust. The body is perfect , all new tires and brakes , even the spare on the back is new , the interior is also very nice from what my buddy said. I found a new cross member for $54.00 shipped. I'm not sure how many miles yet but a 99 Chevy tracker with 140,000 miles is listed as $3,335.00 in good condition .that's if sold to a private party. But I'm almost certain its going to be the cross member that is rusted not the actual frame , from what I read it happened to most of the 99-04 trackers . if I buy it , it will be 2mro , so I'll post a pic . I'll kind of feel bad buying it if its just the cross member . what do u guys think ?
