is that a ls1? Either the tail lights or bumper have been changed. Either way, the car looks clean, nice purchase.

^what i'd assume too. pretty normal mod.

nice pickup!


reminds me a lot of my old v6.. color, rs kit, wheels... miss that car really liked how it looked when I pulled off the 3 piece spoiler, while leaving the rest of the kit.. figured i'd toss that out there since you're about to send it in for paint, that was when I got that out of the way myself (pictures in sig)

but since you're missing the front portion of the kit, might as well remove the sides and rear, unless you're planning to replace the front pieces? looks odd without the whole kit.

I figured that was about on though.. V6s demand a lot in the normal market. People usually won't pay much more for these damn gas guzzling V8s.

Fine by me! LOL

Yeah its a LS1 ... i need to find the front bumper clip to match the kit, they hit something and tore it off... or i just need to take the kit off and be done with it...as far as future mods, i need to see what has already been done to the car, i know its got a aftermarket shifter but thats about all i know ...

future mods when it comes out of paint will be a set of Kooks LTs,ORY,LS6 or Fast intake,Cam,TrickFlow 215 heads,102MM TB,SLP Lid and new injectors

Wow, you stole that thing for $3k! How many miles are on it? It looks to be in pretty decent shape. Nice find.

That's much less miles than what I was expecting it had for the price you paid. Congrats!

The guy i got it from was being deployed, watching Barter Kings pays off! lol ... He wanted 4400.00 for it... its not in bad shape, rides good and pretty damn fast for what i am assuming is stock! .... Hopefully by the end of summer it will all be painted up and tinted. Then on to the motor work .... I cant complain about it, not to mention I've found some pretty good folks on here to talk with about any issues i ever have

I get so mad (jealous) when people seem to stumble on LS1's for ridiculous low prices and then they go on to be awesome factory freaks and last forever. I searched a long time for mine, and I'm not too sure about it some days.

Congrats!

Looks like the previous owner kept it in great shape, congrats. Are you keeping the same paint color or changing it up?
