Just bought V8 RS

I am one lucky guy! I just bought a 1991 Camaro RS with a Lo3 engine/automatic trans, T-tops and body in great shape-paint is faded, engine has a blown head gasket but who cares for $150 dollars. Has the original 16" aluminum rims and it has never been in a wreck (second owner) It will go great with my 88 IROC-Z Convertible daily driver. I am going to put it in storage for the winter months and expect to have it running by summer time. It may become my daily driver and winter car for a couple of years before a re-paint Woohoo!

Re: Just bought V8 RS

Yeah I love great deals like that

I bought my 91 RS for $270, all it needed was a fuel pump, some frayed wiring fixed, new fuel injectors, tbi rebuilt, new tires, brakes, and a general tune up

now in the process of building a 350 to drop in it sometime this winter. Got a 4 bolt block and 193 heads for $100, I'm porting the hell out of those swirl port heads while I save up money for a new crank, cam, rebuild kit. Extremely budget rebuild but should get decent results with the porting
