I am selling my 1984 Chevrolet Camaro. This Camaro originally had a V6 engine with an automatic transmission when I bought it. The V6 has been replaced with a LT1 350 engine from a 1995 Firebird Trans Am car. The LT1 engine had 40,000 miles on it when I purchased it. The automatic transmission was replaced with a T56 6 speed transmission from a 1994 Camaro Z28. The T56 transmission had 50,000 miles on it when I purchased it. The car runs great, starts right up, is fast, and is very fun to drive.

The car has been driven minimally since the engine and transmission swap. In total, the car has around 8,000 miles on it since the engine and transmission swap. Both the engine and transmission have been well taken care of with oil changes using only synthetic oil. Although this car has not been dyno-tested for horsepower, the LT1 engine came stock with 275 horsepower and with the current exhaust and intake modifications on this car it should now have 300+ horsepower. On top of this, this car has passed the vehicle emissions test for the state of Maryland.

The car was originally white and was also repainted white less than 2 years ago. The interior and exterior of this Camaro are in good condition with a few imperfections. The car has had many new parts and upgrades in addition to the engine and transmission swap. A detailed description of the vehicle is below:

As promised, pictures of the 1984 Camaro with LT1 and T56 are attached. I can only post 3 pictures, but have many more on my computer. Please email me at ballen@umd.edu if interested for more pictures, questions, or to arrange a time to view the car in person. Questions can also be posted here and I will check it periodically.

 

Is anyone interested in this car?

 

u might think about cleaning it up alittle. it might get more response

 

The exterior looks sweet. If I had room for another thirdgen and weren't working on the ones i have, i probably would buy it. A 95 LT1/T56 combo is just awesome. I'd expect it to sell.

 

Wish I was closer, I'd really like to take a look at this one as it sounds like a smoking deal to me...

 

sent an e-mail requesting more info... please leave me a phone # so i can contact you

 

Nickyg, the only email I have recieved is from Derek. If your not Derek, than somehow I must not have recieved your email. Please try emailing me again or you are welcome to call me. Calling me is probaly the faster way to contact me. Anyone else who is interested in my camaro can also call me with questions and/or interest. My phone number is 410 279 3129. My email is ballen@umd.edu.

 

yeah bro that was me man... i was on my dad's username from when he had his 91 t/a (im drivin that now) so my fault for confusing you

 

This Camaro is still for sale

 

i live in central virginia and have been looking for a running third gen. can you shoot me an e-mail wiht more pics? its eheidel227@earthlink.net. its definitely an interesting car.

 

email me at berserker93@comcast.net with more pics please

 

Thanatos and iroc86z, I just finished sending each of you an email with more pictures. Let me know if you have any other questions.

 

im off work this sunday (finally a weekend day) and could easily hop up to annapolis. are you available sunday july 30 after lunch? id love to come take a look at your car. let me know. my phone nimber is 804-306-0090, and ill check this thread tommorrow.

 

not to be rude ,but you really need to clean up that spegitti in the engine compartment ,i was interested but thet pic just turned me right off.

 

I've lowered the price down to $4500

 

I was all about blowing a load until I seen the engine bay..

 

i dont know why you didnt paint up the engine and engine bay when u had the motor out.

 

The Engine bay of this car is fine. I think some people who are posting on this thread and criticizing the enigine bay are acting like I'm asking $10,000 for the car. This isn't a show car and I'm not asking for show car money for it. However, this Camaro is in very good condition, it runs very well, it has an LT1 with a T56 6 Speed and I'm only asking $4500 for it. If anyone is interested in buying the car, please post on this thread or email me at ballen@umd.edu with questions or to set up a time to view the car in person.

 

im not hateing 4500 is a awsome deal .but if all i had to do was make it prett so i could ask 8,000 i would have. hell if it had pretty engine bay and painted engine i would trade you my ls1

 

Its a cool ride, for $4500 I would clean the engine bay myself for that good of a deal! I guess others aren't able to clean and paint??!! Dont take less then $4500, just hold on to it!

 

nice set up wished you were closer.. looking to trade my truck for another f-body

 

I was only planning on asking $4500 for mine, but if you sell your car with your engine bay looking like that.. Then I think I'll try and sell mine for $5500... Your car is why thirdgenners get a bad rep.. Why would you go that far on such a cool looking car, then leave the engine bay looking like crap..? Maybe no one has shown you the potential your engine bay could have..


yours



mine


Now take a rag and a few hours and clean that thing up!!
