Nice car. Wish you were closer and i could get ride of my 91 Vette. GLWS

 

Thanks man. BUMP!

 

email sent

 

Replied!!!

 

saw this camaro in person..lemme just say, this thing is absolutely sick..showstopper fer sure

 

Thanks Mike!!!


FIRST POST UPDATED!!! NEW MOTOR NEW CLUTCH

 

noproblem bump...sorta

 

NOOOOOOO!!!!!

 

Cool car. Not sure why you don't finish it and keep it... Just needs some TLC and attention to detail. It's close. Free bump.

 

Holy wheel gap batman! nice car thoe! That lightweight LS brings the need for some spindles

 

are you in military? i think i met you a few years back in columbia sc. i drive a white 91 z28 with ghost stripes just like yours lol maybe you'll remember it

 

no more knock?

 

Holy **** whats up man!!! Haha yes I remember you, Hows the car?? Im still not 100% sure Im selling, and I have had very little interest so, I will probably end up keeping it.

No sir, this new motor runs like a watch!!! Box stock plus an LS6 intake manifold, and edelbrock shorty headers. Runs perfect.

 

its still hangin in there lol almost 200k miles on the the stock 305. waiting on something to happen so i can play with my motor lol. ls swap looks sick! wish i was closer id love to give this thing a good home!

 

Asking price still the same?

 

I lowered it from $10k to $8500.

 

im very interested. in the process of getting a 94 b4c on a trade for mine and hope you still have yours for when i sell it. which will be soon. ill be making a trip out there.

 

Saw you on ls1tech a couple days ago on a thread with a guy selling a blue '92 383ci, nice car man, if you weren't two and a half large states away I'll love to take her off your hands . bump for a nice 'maro

 

still have the car? still asking 8500??

 

Yes I still Have the car but it has gone through some changes since I updated this thread. I will update the original post with my new price and let me know if your still interested.

 

updated pics would be great as well...thanks

 

Updated

 

thanks for the update. the drivetrain sounds solid but I'm not really interested in something that someone drives hard day-in and day-out. And for 12,000, I'd be looking for something a little more "finished" is how I'd put it I guess. Good Luck with the sale though.

 

This has me really confused...what is it about the car that doesn't look "finished" to you? It's amazingly clean, the swap was done with nice attention to detail, the wiring is all tucked up neatly and not thrown over the engine bay like a rats nest, the entire drivetrain has been upgraded with excellent parts, yet doesn't look finished?


Bump for a SICK car

 

i didn't say it wasn't clean or anything. to me, it's just not finished to my taste. which is why i wrote "finished" in quotations. for me to justify spending 12 grand i'd want it to be perfect for me, that's all.

 

You americans are so spoilt for choice of nice cars! this car in Australia would fetch about $30k+. If only it was an 88 id snap it up in a second (silly aussie rule about post 88 cars making it very tricky to import). 12grand is a BARGAIN! GLWS

 

great lookin car.. I've been dreaming of an lsx swap

 

Would you be interested in a trade?

 

I really think your car is sik, I want to do a ls swap in my bad. If you don't mind me asking did you do the swap or have someone do it?

TTT for an awesome car.

 

Your welcome, and thank you for the interest.

Thanks Nick!

Haha thanks man. Just move to America!!!

They aren't tough to do if you know much about these cars and the internet lol.

Maybe. Depends on what for.

Thanks. I did all the work myself. You can find my original build thread on here somewhere.

Still no serious offers. I might be putting the 383 LS back in it with some boost....

 

If you swap it with the 383 and boost it I want it. I'll trade you my 4th gen

 

This is one of the best looking cars on here. Where did you get the tail light covers?

My fav pic of it.

 

Why do the tail light not work. Also what brake pads are on the car can you post.some not.interior.photo please

 

The tail lights work fine. The reverse lights do not work though. Stock brake pads from auto zone. I will get some more pics of the interior tonight.

 

Bump
Updated with all new pictures....

 

holly ish!!!
This car is so clean it's not even funny....
If I had not already spent 8500 on my current swap, I would deff buy this car... You have almost all the same parts down to the rims

 

TTT Car will be at LA invasion this weekend for track times.

 

would you be willing to part with the wheels? or know where i can find a set for a the low price
and im also doing this swap into my car but the tranny being stubborn and cant get it to line up with the engine properly any suggestions?

 

OEWheels.com


As for the trans problem, T56 or Auto?

 

If you were closer to PA you would have a check today.

 

You guys who will drop the 12k for the car penny up ad spend the exta $1200 to have it shipped.

If I was in the market for a lsx3rd Gen this one would be up there on the list. Fell little attention to details and it would be perfect.(hide some more wires, new dash pad)

nice car man. Ive considered getting rid of my boosted 383lt1 for a lsx build.

 

fly out and drive it back! great way to learn the car than have seat time for a cross contry trip!

bump for awsome car.... only if you wanted a jeep...

 

How much they go for on that site... T56

 

If any of you long distance guys are actually serious about the car, we can definitely work out a deal. PM me if your serious.

As for the wheels, they were $527+shipping for the set.



BTW the car now has a full interior. Ebony/grey dual pattern cloth 4th gen seats. In perfect shape.

 

Updated interior shots added.

 

Is this car still for sale?
