I like the paint scheme, too bad it looks like a crappy paint job. Not too sure about that chain on the engine though..

I think that its funny... They claim the car started as a 1990 Z28 350 5speed car.

RIIIIIGHT.

Here's what I see.

First, 91-92 GFX not from a 90 Z28 (IROC). Second, the dash has a Camaro emblem, clearly RS, not IROC/Z28. Also, the dash is from an 82-89 car.


Aside from that, the car looks pretty dull

The car has a crate 350 with an aftermarket pan. The rear is stock. That NOS kit was never used. He's lookin to let it go for about $8k. It is the second time it has been listed. It got as high as $7100 before. It was all movie money, so anything he gets out of it goes toward his time to put the four of them together I guess.

At least this one has been rubbed on. It would be a shame for it to be junked. If the cage is any good then that saves a good bit of fab work for somebody.

I wish I could buy it.

Heh interesting car. But for some reason I feel less inclined to buy stuff from people that have such bad grammar. Makes it look like they dont really care or something.

(my pet peeve is when people mix up 'you're' and 'your')
