Decisions, decisions

GTA in Santa Cruz -- 2k

GTA, 2 motors, for dirt... $700

I'm sure if I am patient the right one will come along. That would be the '91 or '92 GTA with a 305 stick.

I know those are VERY rare. Still, I would settle for a 700R4 with an L98.

Still, I think someone could part that car out for more than 2K real quick. There is also the option to fix it up.

I didn't know you were in the market for a GTA Mike.

Why the 91-92 only?
You like the ground effects or the speed density?
I like the taillights of those years, but that's about it.
You already have a much nicer gas saving 305.
Unless you just want 2 cars, I say just make yours faster.

Not a GTA, but this one is really nice for the price.

I want a 92 Z28 with a 5 speed hella bad too. For some reason if it's a Camaro or Firebird it has to be a stick for me. Just seems right. And I can handle a car around corners and on twisties much better with a stick.

So I want an LS1/T-56 combo with harness and computer. If a low mileage combo with an LT1 came by for a decent price I'd do that too. LT4 conversion later.

I want to go 4th Gen interior anyways, that will make it alot easier.

Mines an RS, but it's a 92 at least, and everything that makes a z28 a z28 (cept the RPO's) will be swapped with aftermarket anyways, whether I had a z28 or not. So when I'm done building, z28 emblems everywhere except the ground effects.

If a 5.7 from a 4th Gen goes in SS emblems will go there.

I want to build my car like that hella bad...
