I'm thinking it may be time to finally part ways with my LS1. What do you guys think she's worth?
1999 Chevrolet Camaro SS
- 107k miles
- factory white leather interior (drivers seat has seat bottom and bolster tears)
- 6 speed
- Hardtop (could be more desirable to the right person I guess?)
Mods:
- lid
- GMAF
- ASP crank pulley
- American Thunder Flowmaster catback
- LS7 clutch
- Hurst shifter (car didn't come with it originally)
- White hurst 6 spd knob
- Lou's Short Stick
The story:
I bought the car when I was in the Army with 41k miles on it back in 2002. It spent many years sitting in storage through various deployments (military initially then later civilian) and continued to sit in storage when I was working out of state a lot. Most of the miles I've put on are highway, but I've absolutely enjoyed the hell out of the car's performance so I won't pretend it's been babied either.
The car was stripped way down and repainted back in 2006/2007. Pics are in the links below. They did a decent job, but the front body panels don't line up quite perfectly and they didn't understand how to paint the roof on these things so it has bubble thing going on where it feels smooth but you sometimes see imperfections beneath the paint.
I finally started using it for a daily driver since it's not worth a whole lot and doing some of the various work it needed to freshen it up some.
The new:
- Plugs/wires
- rear shocks
- service rear diff and replace rear pinion seal
- replace trans output seal while the driveline was out for the rear pinion seal
Locally it's mainly V6 4th gen Camaro's and the dealers seem to want $6k+ for all of them. That seems ridiculously high given what kbb and nada say mine is worth.
LOOOOOTS of pictures on these three links:

Thanks for taking the time to look.
