    I agree but it may be difficult right now. The previous owner put 24 miles on it in the several years he owned it. It was in storage before that. It's a good chance the fuel in the tank is 10 years old. There may be junk in the tank, or fuel pump failing, or all of the above. Either way it won't stay running very long under load.

      I am going to pull the engine. I was going to keep it but money talks. I could use some to help fund the rest of the project.

          Well when you get it out and if you want to part with it, I would be interested in it complete. We can talk when the time comes and if you decide for sure you dont want it.

              PLEASE don't cut take this rare car apart. Would make more sense to clean it up and flip it to smebody that wants to restore it for what it is. Then take the money you make off it and buy a clean IROC.

                    I'm not going to cut it up and turn it into a race car. Just update it and do an LS swap.

                      I think you forgot to mention the "custom paint job", and "custom interior"..........


                      You're planning to do enough to it, that it concerns people as to why you would do this on an exceptionally rare 3rd Gen.........

                      Too each his own, and ultimately it's your car do as you wish, but don't be surprised when people question "why". It's kind of like putting a flag on your car and snapping a picture, not everybody is going to like it or agree with it. But if you like it, that's all that matters.

                        Same difference after you do that it will be worth less. A 1LE car is worth more restored as it is then modified. Again I ask you to please not ruin this rare car. Sell it to somebody that will restore it.

                          Come on you guys.....seriously? These things aren't worth any more than the money and effort spent in restoring them. And then what do you have? A "rare" third gen, that less than a handful of people can appreciate? Please..... These things make great platforms to add the latest cool shit.

                          Get that smoke wrench out Jason and get to cuttin.....mmmmmmm LSA
