Looking to buy 85 Camaro. Good deal?

[jakes_GSXR]

seems like an equal trade. altho your buick sounds pretty nice and better on gas. plus you know the history of your own car

good luck

and nice to see another thirdgen!!

No problem Darren, G80 is the posi code, and I couldnt find it on the sticker.

[Darren]

Gotcha I was just wondering, weird to have 3:23 gears without POSI but it is possible.

Edit: Some important RPO Codes

z28
LG4- 5.0 v8 4BBL
MM5- Merchandised Trans, 5 speed
M39- Transmission, Manual 5 Speed Borg Warner, 77MM, 2.95
3OU- Primary Exterior Color Grey Blue Met (91)

Thanks guys, yea he is actually interested. Im going down Thursday to look and possibly finish the deal.

Yea, I do know more about my car and it does get better gas milage and whatnot, but Ive always wanted a Camaro and since I dont have to drive long distances for work anymore, I figure its a good time to get one with summer rolling in ^_^

Thats good news Ed! Just look in the "trouble" spots take your camera and take pictures if you dont finish the deal right then and there, but from everything I found out about that car I trade in a heartbeat. Just look over it well and get some information about that 350 swap! Good Luck to ya hope it works out I would love to see another thirdgen on this site!

Hey, quick question. Would I have any problems driving that camaro back to Michigan with open headers? He lives in Toledo so it's about a 2 hour drive.

[Darren]

You wont have any problems with the car...But you could possibly run into problems with a noise thing and with the cops. But if you have a bill of sale showing that you just bought the car and just transporting it home you should be ok. Either way IMO it is well worth the risk to get the camaro home!

[Ace2717]

Yea, that's what I figured. But I just wanted to be sure. thanks

[Ace2717]

So the car ended up being worse off than the guy said so I'm not driving her home. The search continues...

[MP81]

Aww, that's a shame. Was it all rusty?

[Darren]

That sucks man, give us the details tho was it a rust bucket, not run good? Also what are you looking for? A thirdgen camaro in trade for your Buick? I am on craigslist all the time I'll keep an eye out for you...

[SoulTerror]

That sux but shit happens for a reason.

[Ace2717]

Posting on behalf of ed....

Yea deffinetly wasnt in good shape. Was kinda botched under the hood, rust hole in the drivers floor the size of my hand, around the wheel wells was gone, hood was pretty shot, was repainted, and not very well. Just to
Much work, looking for something he can daily and still enjoy and have fun with.

He is looking for a v8 car preferably if not a v8 must be a 3.8
Gen does not matter
Must be a stick

That's all for now I'll let him post more if he wants.
