Edit:

Final decision has been made as to the sale of the SS. I've received many PM's and will deal with the first ones first to see who's actually serious about the purchase of the car. I have decided not to take it to the track. I'll leave that to the new owner. I've also been thinking...for the selling price I'm asking, I will sell her as is without any additional "touch ups" and passenger window track repairing I had planned on doing. The tracks in the passenger window are fudged up so the window stays up. It will go up and down but needs to be guided by hand.

There is also a boat load of "extras" that will go with the car (New SLP 85mm MAF with smooth bellow, ARP LS1 and LS2 Head Studs, stock radiator and fan assembly, dual rear exhaust w/ Spintech muffler/polished tips, LS1 intake, air box assembly, Hotchkis strut tower brace) and many, many more misc parts. Alot of documents will be in a binder giving info on latest build, many receipts, instructions, etc. Will also be giving slightly used 28x10.5x15 E/T Drags (without wheels).

Well guys believe it or not it may be that time…I’m shaking my head as I’m typing this not believing this day would ever come. The SS has been my pride and joy for many years being a work in progress since I took delivery back in December 1998…

The only reason I’m making this decision is its time for some changes. Shelia and I are looking to start a family and may have some added expense we'll have to deal with. I need to get something’s in order then maybe down the road I’ll look into something else but for now the SS may need a new home and hopefully someone that will take care of it as I have…I have decided to wait to list it on Ebay, several other websites, autotrader, etc…to get a feel from all the fellow LS1Tech peeps and pass the word too see if we can keep this monster among the “locals” if I decide to do this. I'm truly "still on the fence" here.

As most know the car has been featured in the 2003 Oct issue of GMHighTech. I still have an unopened issue that will be given to the new owner. It also made the 2004 Calander. I had a photo shoot in the Jan 2006 issue of Turbo magazine for the Dallas/Houston July Jam Dyno shoot out.

The last “project” for the car, no expense was spared. Best of the best for a very streetable, pump gas, high HP, full interior, ride...still retaining the A/C and custom sound system.

Way too many things to list but here’s the sum of it all:

Very Clean 1999 Black SS Camaro Hard Top, 6spd, T/A leather interior, 51,000 original miles

Again…no expense was spared for this build!

I can't believe I'm seeing this!!

Dennis, your car is worth every penny of 30K and then some!


J

 

wow.... DJ, just throw a h/c forged 346 in that beauty and daily drive it. no need to ditch it just to have a kid. anyways, aren't you like 50? those fish probably aren't swimming that well these days anyways, just keep the car!!!

 

LOL...42 and the boys can still swim with the best of 'em! Had to do the "deed" a few months back just to be sure. Yeah I know TMFI...

 

Man! Good luck with the sale. One of the cleanest, most BEAUTIFUL SS's out there!

 

Quick someone buy my SS so I can buy DJs for my wife for Valentines Day


FWIW- I bet your fish are swimming just fine. They're probably mullets, but I'm sure they can swim to some degree

TTT for the deal from hell!!!!!

 

now thats pretty funny...

Honestly one of the sickest street cars i've ever seen, bar-none. The thing looks stock from the outside and then SCREAMS.... it was a pleasure meeting DJ and seeing this car in person...

 

Bah. Child seats fit fine in the back of an f-body. Remember when my blue '98 Formula was my only vehicle? My Son was born in '00.

 

Gawd damn I wish I was out of college!

 

The best on your sell.

I'll be glad to let you know if I come accross anyone looking for a top-notch street car.

 

Nice SS, my black 99 has 51k miles on it too, lol. Good luck with the sell.

 

damn it...you cant sell it until we race...i want to spank that car so you can take that Supra Spanker off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha..j/k.... good luck with the sale..i wouldnt mine adding your clean *** car to my mini car collection...but i think one Chevy is good enough for me for now..

 

Is this some kind of cruel joke DJ?

You been hanging around Aric too much!

Good luck with the sale...

 

Ya know....I think I smell a C6 with a car seat

 

Man, never seen the car or met you, but it is already ridiculous to consider...

 

Some things are worth the sacrifice; congrats on the sale and kid(s) ahead of time !

 

badass car. keep it. any video of the car in action ?

 

Dennis don't sell it because you are starting a family, sell it because you feel it is time for it to move on to another project! That way in 16 or so years you don't tell your kid(s) that you had to sell your toys because of them! lol

 

what he said hell my mom had a turbo trans am when i was born and the only reason she got rid of it was cuz the a/c went out oddly enough i do remember the car i think those were my earliest memories....bump for a gorgeous *** car

 

your not gonna do it, sell your truck before you sell the SS, lol, good luck if you really want to, if should hace no problem pulling that price
