O-kay, this is just a feeler message. If things work out over the next few months in my new job, I will be looking to buy another 3rd gen Camaro. I miss my old one I had. So, if anyone is planning towards the end of summer to sell thier 3rd gen. I would be willing to listen to what may be offered. But this is what I looking for in my next 3rd gen:

1. T-Tops a must
2. 82-89 in years. (but really looking for 86-89, reason in next one)
3. 3rd brake light in spoiler. ( I know 90 was the last year for the brake light in spoiler, But with the switch from mech. to elec. speedo. 89 is the last year I want.)

That should cover it. It doesn't matter if it's a roller or working car. Would prefer 5 speed, but doesn't matter. Would prefer not to spend over 1k for a roller, or 2k for a working Camaro. With the project I have in mind. Engine swap, tranny swap, ect. It doesn't matter what condition the motor/tranny is in.

I should point out. I would like to have minimum body damage/rust. But then again...I may change my mind and go for a Camaro that is in almost top perfromance.

I know this is too early to post this. But I wanted to throw this out there to get in some poster's mind, that I will be out there (on here) looking. I trust the people on this board. Not the Ebay sellers.

Thank-you for your time.

3/29/2009: I thought I would revise what I am meaing with my idea on a project car, and my meaning on top performance.

What I have in mind on my project is getting my LT1 engine stroked out to a 383 and a new beefed up tranny. Then sliding it into the 3rd gen. And what I ment on top performance, was not almost drag strip ready, I was meaning: Stock Camaro running near A-1.

 

89 iroc project car. i just dont have the money to finish it. 8pt cage, b&m shifter, all new gauges, alpine headunit, full painless wiring harness, 750 holley 4 barrel, mallory unilite dist with 11mm race wires, headmen headers with side exits, the 355 has forged keith black flat tops and rods, cast crank, eldelbrock performer rpm heads, full serp setup with v belt stuff as well, frame connectors, rear mount holley fuel pump, weld draglites with nitto drag radials, has 700r4 in it now with fresh shift kit, good running th350 no stall goes with too, 3.73 posi, dual fan relay with switch, optima red top, great t-tops, just needs some misc stuff to finish. under 35k orginal miles. only rust is under rear bumper. $5000

 

Thank-you for the post. If I was building something for the strip, then it would be great. But I'm not really wanting something in that neighborhood, with an cage in it. I am not planing to stray too far from stock on the 3rd gen. And really not looking into drag racing with it either. But again, Thank-you for the post.

 

OK, Great news.....I finally got things in motion....after a long search....I finally got another job. So that means i'll be in the market very soon. And I have now changed what i'm looking for, or updated it really.

Still wanting one starting in 82....but now only going to 88...looking for pre-VATS now. It now does not need to be t-top...but wouldn't mind if it was.

An still...doesn't matter if it's running or not...or even a roller...but still would like to not have any "through" rust spots.

Hope this update widens the market for ones that my be selling.
