Testing waters...87 Z28 Turbo 5.3L 4L80e 9"
Well I have discussed this with my wife and I decided i am going to look into selling my 87 that I have put 2 solid years of labour into and go find a Viper.
1987 Camaro Z28 (canadian car)
Approx 98,000 KM (60k miles)
For its age its in decent shape. Still has the plastic on the floors, headliner was redone. I did tear the corner of the front fascia but epoxied it from behind. I didnt want to try to colour match the 29 year old paint.
I bought the car around 3 years ago completely stock so all mods have been done in the last 2 years. I have stripped the bottom and engine bay of this car to bare metal and painted everything.
Currently I just finished my intake swap and plan on pulling the hood to repaint the underside. I also need to extend the charge piping from the intake swap. Trans will be coming out within the month to be gone through.
I have around 600km on this entire setup.
***** I still need to get recent underhood pictures with the intake on and rad in and moved forward a tad
Looking to get $12,000 USD. The car is located In Essex, ON Just outside of Detroit.
Thanks
