This will hopefully be the future swap for my IROC. Any feed back is appreciated. Thanks again.

Why would you buy that as a swap you can buy the motor with less miles for less money.

If you want the car, test drive it, make sure it drives well, and sounds okay. I personally wouldn't buy anything with 175k on the clock, Unless I plan on rebuilding it.

i agree i wouldn't buy the car as a donor car, it looks solid and i'd have a hard time taking a perfectly good car and just parting it out for another when you can but the motor and drive train with less miles for less money.....

I would plan on putting a rebuild kit in it. i cannot find a complete swap plus some around here for $3,500. In the long run it will be cheaper buying this car and parting out what i dont use. thanks for input
