New Ride Im in the market for a new car, i know i want an LS engine but im not sure which F-body i want it in. Currently im looking at a ss camaro with a zl402 from SLP in it. I wanted a little feedback about what you guys think about buying someone elses project? I'd really like to do it myself but for $12,000 this seems like a good deal.

I thought that deal (NBM in Vegas) was "smokin" ... try to find just a bone stock SS with 28k miles for $12k. If I was closer, I would have been all over it. A black 2001 SS in NC with 79k and a zl402 (high compression version) with Darts was listed on Craigslist the following week then listed on Ebay. He let it go for $11k (private sale-no taxes). These two "deals" prompted me to sell my Lightning. Now I have cash in hand ready for that next deal!

Man idk...i just bought an 02...when i was looking i ran across this one also. but it looked a little "iffy" to me so i moved on, first of all its a 6.0 iron block.....so its not even a LS motor...which is what your looking for, and if you notice there's a pic of the rear where the exhaust does not look straight...not a big deal but, if they didnt' get the exhaust right.....what else did they mess up on...or possibly, "half-***". I would definitely go look at it before you make any commitments but its up to you.
P.S....he wants FULL PAYMENT within 5 days of purchase!!(fine print)
man that seems sketchy to me but again idk....
