i dont kno where to put this so umm ima put it here. i dont tihnk its worth 7k with eninge but 1500 for it as a roller sounds good to me, http://webpages.charter.net/dbordel/gta/index.htm
personally id like to have the motor and all but i dont have 7k to spend at this moment. and also will that straight shift transmission bolt up on to my l98?

 

Not worth it to me. 7K gets you an LS1 f-body these days

 

Maybe with 200k miles and a thrashed body.

 

Not at all. Last month there was a 98 with 60K miles going for 7999 on a dealership lot.

Deals are out there. Just have to look

 

here in ct a buddy of mine bought a 98 z28 with a six speed for 4200. 87k body is not bad but a few dings and dents.

 

yah but u see i dont want a 4th gen i dont like em i like 3rd better. but i didnt think 7k was worth it but 1500 for the body and interior and everything except the motor is worth it to me with him pulling the motor himself.

 

If he is giving you EVERYTHING except the motor and trans, then i think that it would be worth over 1500, just think, assuming that the body is in perfect condtion, how much money you would save on bodywork alone... If you dont take it, where is it located?

Edit, hell for 1500 you can have more parts then you can imagine...

 

I can't imagine how somebody is getting a nice 98 for those kinds of prices. We can't get nice LT1 cars for under $6k around here.

Then again, I suppose everybody has a different opinion of "nice".

 

when i was looking for my 3rd gen i was finding 4th gen ls1s for way cheaper. I almost gave in. but then found my T/A for 5,000 with 68,000 miles on it. i feel i got ripped off because after i bought it it needed a new tranny and had the engine light on a few days after i got it.... MAF sensor...

 

maybe 3-4k i would spend on it
then again an ls1 with a 6 spd is very appealing too
