getting a new V8!

yeah so locally i found a nice z28. its an 87 has a 350, cam,heads,intake,carb work. as well as a built 350turbo trans. guys asking $800, but the body is like 8 diffrent shades of flat black. but since i just spent a little over $2000 on my 2.8 to get it race ready... so im letting my brother buy it. i'll post some pics up later if i can get my cam to work.

Re: getting a new V8!

wow, sounds like it could be a great deal. Is it rusty or something?
