The goods: L98/700-R4/BW 9 bolt

The bad: Rusty and someone painted this thing purple. Odometer shows 139K, but the title issued last year indicates a different mileage...and it wasnt driven... so gather your own assumptions.

I consider it a parts car, but I suppose someone could fix it up if they wanted.

I was planning on pulling the L98 and dropping it into my 87MCSS that I bought as a roller... but I'm outta time and space.

I can deliver anywhere on island at the asking price.

Call Rob 291-1328

 

Rob, if nobody buys the car, would you consider parting out the rear and drive shaft, and perhaps some other small parts? My '91 ragtop could use those parts, the rear has a thumping pinion bearing... I'd like to visit your place over the weekend to be social, perhaps we could chat about it.

PM me your address, I'm staying with friends over in Pacific Palisades... Thx, Ed

 

Ed,

My original plans for this beast were to take the L98 out of it and drop it in my spare MCSS roller at the house. Unfortunately I dont have the time to deal with this right now...

I need to get my butt over to Maui shortly and go get me something else to play with.

 

Maui deal didnt pan out...

Had some interested parties that ALL flaked out.. and I hooked Ed up with a rear end deal from a 4th Gen

Now, this car WILL come apart next week Monday and Tuesday. No ifs, ands or butts.

Anything NOT sold by then will go straight to the crusher. Screw it.

 

Are you willing to sell the front strut & hub assembly both with hardware. I assuming they wiil fit a camaro.

Thanks,
Karl

 

Karl, they will... I assume you mean strut, spindle, caliper, rotor correct?

Are you taking them off or am I? I tend to cut brake hoses (so they dont get re-used) but everything else will come off as they unbolt.

It'll have to be once the motor is out and its back on the trailer, but I'll sell them.

Call me, if I dont answer, please leave a message.

Rob

 

Io can take them off, just let me know when your done pulling the motor. Im assuming they will fit a camaro, I just need those parts to tow a car home as it sits now theres no front end.
Pass side

Drivers side

 

Motor should be out Monday AM and be back on the trailer Monday Evening.

 

Will the car be sitting their next Sat.? thats prolly my next day off.

 

Rob -- I called Chad, we're making the deal on the 4th Gen rear for my ragtop, I'll be interested in the FB driveshaft if Chad doesn't have one. Also might want the A-arms, sway bars and some other small parts if available. LMK, ok? BTW, PM me your email address, I'll send those photos. Ed

 

Dang double posts

 

Provided the motor/trans comes out today, I want it gone by Wednesday around lunch



Ed... whatever you need gimme a call...

If the struts gotta come out then its no big deal for the a-arms and sway-bars.

I can pull the stuff (have air tools) makes it FAST

 

UPDATE: Motor/trans not out yet (almost)

Back on trailer tomorrow AM

The following are currently sold or have been requested

Wheels/Tires

Center console forward pocket (radio/heater control unit)

Front seats

Gauge cluster (Eli)

Front struts

Transmission

Lower A-arms

 

Cool put me down for the struts & hardware, also the entire hub assembly.


Thanks,
Karl

 

Slight delay.... gotta work tomorrow... so the project is on hold for a bit.

Karl, got your voicemail... I'll give you a holler when the parts are off the car.

 

Cool no worries, thanks man.

 

Oh, if Chad doesn't have a drive shaft, I'd like to get the one from the FB, I'll know more in a couple days.... Thanks, Ed

 

LMK... it is an aluminum shaft... currently rolling on the ground under the car... haha...

 

Wow, ROTHL... yep, that's the preferable one. I'll check w/Chad tomorrow and get back to you. Gonna be doing stuff around your place Sat early PM? If so, maybe I could come over for a while....

 

So hows the tear down going? Any progress?
----------
Let us know if you need help?

 

i was just over yesterday, the car is prett much gutted might be ready to go to the dump after he takes off the wheels/suspension/brakes and rear end i think...thats pretty much thats left

 

Hey Karl...

I was planning on getting the suspension out of the car tomorrow AM.. but I'm stuck at work on a 16 hour shift... so I wont get home till 730-8am tomorrow and have to be back at 3pm and have errands to do in between.

So... for now it looks like this:



Dash and harness almost out

 

Any idea if Saturday is OK for a final pick-through before the carcass is hauled away?

 

Barney is almost stripped...lol

 

I should be done by then... got all the loose screws in a pile on the drivers floor just for you...

 

Rob just give me a call when its ready for pick up.

 

Hold that though... Barney's gonna sit right there for a bit... I got an S10 that needs my attention...

Monday or Tuesday may be a better day.

 

Karl, Ed,

I'll be home this morning.... give me a call.

Rob

Two-nine-one-one-three-two-eight

 

Hey Rob, sorry I was off island for a wedding, I'll call you Mon. morning.

 

Not a problem Karl.

Ed, I'm done except for extracting the dash. This weekends adrenaline rush has worn off and I am officially exhausted.

Sorry I missed your call the other day. Chad also called me today to ask for your number. He has your axle on the ground in the shop.

Rob

 

Yep, got his call yesterday. Will the carcass be around until the weekend, or should I plan to stop over before then....

 

Thanx Rob sorry didn't call you back, can I pick them up this weekend?

 

It should be hee till Monday AM

 

Great! I'm planning to pickup the 4th Gen rear on Sat a.m. the I could stop over for a while and root around in the carcass ... wish it a pleasant departure to the boneyard in the sky, if you know what I mean.

 

Yes Karl... its still here... Sunday ios a No-Go though... I ride Sundays

 

Are you gonna be home Mon?

 

I'll be off island... Tuesday?

 

Call me soon... I have family coming to visit and I'd like to get the loose stuff out of the yrd before they get here.

 

wow rob still have that clown?

 

I think the car's gone, but your parts are growing weeds....

 

not my parts lol.. i thought rob had gotten rid of it a few weeks back since the last time i saw it it was pretty much bare bones

 

Karls parts actually
