87 Chev Camaro Z-28 , 350 auto, t-roof, new brakes, rotors & bearings, exhaust, DynoMax headers, batt, tires, tint, blue w/ white pinstripes, $3500 obo,

Called him and got this:
Tiny bit of rust on top of the windsheild and little spot on the 1/4 pannel. Engine has a slight tick but the power is there.

If i did get it, I would probably end up rebuilding the engine. It was an orignal 305 car but he replaced it with a 350.

I junked my 383 v6-v8 swap because it was gonna end up costing wayyy to much. Now I have a spare transmission lol.

My plan is for this to be my summer Camaro and have the 83 as a winter car. A winter car with t tops Just slap on some winter tires and off I go.

Not the best pic but here she is

 

Looks like a great third gen z! Question on your other car as well, Is that A berly (probably not cause of your bumper but stranger things have happened...)? or just the sc? its always bugged me cause of that quote on your sig. sry to get off topic like that

 

Its a true berli with a confused identity I have most of the iroc gfx for it in my garage haha

 

Keep it GFxless, Youll ruin your bumper say do you still have the orginal bumper?

 

how many miles? Interior?

 

winter camaro i like that

ur a funny one




...snow is only good for open parking lots

 

Firebreed - I dunno man, you cant beat that low look

Dan- I havent seen it yet, going later, I will post it later

I think this thing is hot in that picture

 

Survived last winter it was fun AND reliable....and that was with my burnt off tires

 

Winter with an 8 is just plain dumb. I guess the 6 would be ok though with winter tires and some snows. The slight tick could just be the headers leaking Is that $3500 certified plus e tested?

 

ya theres no such thing as a winter camaro hahaha. trust me trying to drive through a foot of snow isnt fun with a v8..SUX

 

3500 seems like a waste of money if you are gonna rebuild it anyway. just get a shell and you got the tranny and buy a junk engine and then you got like 2500 left for alll of that

 

I don't know an iron duke and some snow tires wouldn't do so bad.

 

He sad he would use the 6 during winter...Drove my 6'er in the snow last winter...no problem.

How is the interior? Tops leaking? For $3500 I would expect a car in very good condition. Tiny spots of rust have a funny way of turning out to be large, you can't always see how far the rusts goes.

 

Your in North Carolina no?Calgary gets a hell of a lot of snow

 

So I went to look at it, its not to bad, more rust than I had expected, interior was mint...cept for the "Nos" seat covers Im checking out another camaro. Looks friggen nice too.....only problem is theres no T tops

 

pfft t-tops are more trouble then their worth IMO, Case in point, My grandpa had a 1994 Z with t's Once he broke the Factory seal, every time it rained, His leaked, No matter what he did to try and stop it, he even tryed new weather stripping.

 

spray some wd 4o on the seals before you put the top back on, big difference., dust and dirt gets between the glass and rubber and screws with the seal.

 

UPDATE:

So I went again because the owner was there this time. Younger guy with a beer in hand. We were talking about it and he showed me the engine and the interior (but he forgot his keys). I offered 3000 because it had a broken windshield and He said when I bring my dad tommorow we will talk about that. So Im goin tommorow to test drive it and see how she runs. I love the look of this car, needs some TLC but its just looks so cool.

Heres the funny part: As we were leaving, he waves us down and comes with a bag in his han and asks "Do any of you smoke" and shows a zip lock bag of weed. We were just like.....umm no....

Im not sure which way to take that in terms of buying the car, Guess I just gotta be careful. And yes it is registered currently and till 2006...

 

LOL . "Dou you smoke"... oh my ***. You'd better hope this isn't some sort of sting operation.

A bit of advice: try and wait till he's stoned to start negotiating a price.

 

thats what I told my friends I should do

I just hope when I go with my dad to show him the car the dude doesnt offer him some

 

I have a feeling, its not worth 3500 at all.

From the sound of it, the dude doesn't/hasn't taken very good care of it.

 

I dunno man in a way I trust him, he has all his recipts, couldnt belive it, there was like a novel of them

 

i would talk to the shop to see what was accually done though.. he could be giving you a POS car that accually should be going to the jyard in a way im smelling some
