Default Ouch! Wrecked SOM WS6 in Houston

Whose car is this? Sucks to see a nice example of an LS1 f-body wrecked.

Way too much for an F-body with that much damage. They're dreamin' if they think someone's going to pay that much.

$8800 is not bad considering how many good parts are on it, the entire drivetrain, plus the fact its a six speed, a complete interior, dash with bags, the entire front end is still in great shape, a ram air hood, most cars like that dont come with that hood and you could even still sell the hatch, maybe even the wheels. Plus eevery thing is really low miles. If some one say had a red 93 TA and wanted to do an LS1 swap, 98 clip, ebony leather, that car would be perfect and well worth 8800$ to have a complete clean parts car

I'm with Neil on that one.


Not too shabby. Buy that, and a junk old roller, would make a nice clean race car foundation.

I hate seeing wreck F-bods especially ones of that color. I wanted a SOM SS or WS6 but then came along a car named HOSS

8800 is way to much. I just bought my 2000 ws6 at a insurance auction for $3600 and it had way less damage than that. It just needed fenders,front facia and one head light.

yours looks slightly worse blue, but you got something good out of it! nice blue Z28! anyways, i think 8800 is way too much too considering not that many people who have SOM are gonna need those randomn parts i wouldn't think considering most would keep theirs in show quality..i would anyway
