    Payment sent for 3 x red stickers. A few spares in case 2 is not enough for the new owner, whomever it may end up being!


    This website has been great to follow and even though I have a low post count I don't forsee myself staying away even if I sell the car.

    I am planning on adding a LS1 SS one day to the collection, need to get the garage hoist setup so I can park two nice cars on one side is all... this baby takes up too much space

    Went lower and more even since this picture....

      Verified fuel pump module and filter was done at 84,000 miles as well.

      Its nice having over 10+ years of records electronically on tap... go go Dad for keeping a great records system at his business.

          TRADE - OR SELL 1997 Camaro V6 Manual - $3,800 FIRM CASH PRICE (Commerce)

          129,958 are the miles as well.

          Hoping JoeliusZ28 will post both positive and negative review from seeing the car last night. I made him drive it just so he could give a second opinion. thank you for that!


          If it doesn't sell I'm gonna pull the HID's, double d bezel and double din pioneer, the double gauge pod, led lights and spare hood and sell all things separate and let car go for $3000.

          Prefer to save the hassle and let it go in pristine shape without tearing things apart .

            Yep for those that are wondering, I did come out and look at the car in person last night. Unfortunately this was not the right deal for me but i'll leave some feedback here so others can know.

            Exterior and Interior of the car are both very clean and straight I only noticed one small ding. the trunk and ttops looked as if they had never even been used before. As far as i could tell everything James has said about what has been done and replaced on the car is accurate. There is a some surface rust on the floorboards and some blistering in the engine bay, but no "rot." Needs a little elbow grease and POR15. Buyer will want the extra hood with the car. Something either happened either in manufacturing or after the fact, kind of like moisture was trapped in a seam from the beginning, the front lip was rotted out but the rest of the hood was fine. Unusual for a 4th gen.

            I was personally turned off when i spotted a puddle of something along the side of the intake manifold. This was an indicator of bad intake gaskets on the last 3.8 i owned... and i just had no desire to do that job a second time when i already have a good DD. But, I may have been wrong about this it could have been some leftover water from when he detailed the engine as he now found records that these gaskets were replaced. It also had a bit more shake at an idle than either of my 3.8 cars I owned. James said the car is tuned, so it may have been something to do with this. James as a buyer I'd be more comfortable with a factory tune on the car. Not saying the tune was bad, but it leaves a person wondering. Driving down the road the car drove like it should. Within 20 feet i noticed the nice ride of the bilstein shocks. And we were recording an instant 26mpg at 45 mph in fourth gear in the 10 degree weather. Cant hardly complain about that!

                Double checked the suspected fluid by intake manifold... Was greasy / oily residue from when the valve covers were just done.




                Had me freaking out! I had my old mans shop quote doing the manifold gaskets today again just incase.... My OCD was kicking in hard!

                              Bump. Purchase a Silverado SS and just arranging shipment. So this has to go.

                              Most likely want $3300k firm without the upgrade radio or bezel which will move to the truck now. Also no tablet mount or cell phone mount.
