Default No wonder the exhaust was so loud (video)

I bought a 2000 Z28 off a friend of mine.

Here a quick video of it on the lift: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYfLRLBG2w4

Here's the full repair checklist:

Driver side window will not roll down (FIXED - replaced window motor)

Hatch back will not open on its own (FIXED - bent latch back into place)

Alarm doesn't arm properly (FIXED - replaced shock sensor)

Tires nearly bald & busting open, plus one mismatched tire (FIXED - new wheels and tires)

Muffler is completely broken loose (FIXED - welded back together)

eBay HIDs are so blue they make everyone's license plate look like a cop (FIXED - installed Silverstar ultras)

Needs clutch, throw out bearing makes a lot of noise (On order)

Front grill is missing (On order)

Y-Pipe has severe pinch

Needs passenger side tie rod end

Needs four wheel alignment badly

Directionals don't work, fuse keeps blowing

Needs passenger side fog light connector & bulb

Hope you got a good deal!

Kidding aside, good to see it's in the hands of someone who will take care of it.

Glad to see it well taken care of. All the little things can add up though. Hope there's nothing major wrong with it. Looks clean on the outside though. Keep up the good work. That's one of the best parts about these cars, they're so much fun to work on.

LS6 intake, LS6 injectors, LS6 clutch, LS6 oil pump, LS2 timing chain, MS3 cam 112 LSA, TS pushrods, PAC 1518 springs are all going on the car soon. HP Tuners ready to go.

I'm expecting to make about 360whp on the Mustang Dyno that I go to.
