I'd look hard at the coolant resivoir, neglected dexcool
is not a pretty sight, and also ask foremost has the transmission been rebuilt or replaced? and if so do you have documentation/receipts

look at the trans itself if you see a tag that reads "GM SRTA" you may have found a weiner

I just bought a '99 from an elderly Guy who kept it garaged
I'd looked at 2005 and 2006 models with half the miles of the '99 (my '99 has 137K) and ran, as they were beat on by young guys, and full of cigarette burns..... dents....... and dings

patience pays don't be in a rush
