Car looks and runs great. Shifts perfect and the clutch is great (not sure if it was ever changed but grabs instantly) Paint is very shiny with a few minor scratches here and there. Very good for the year and mileage. Could use a few things to make it perfect but not much.
Security light is on. Been on since I bought it. Probably something to do with the chip in the key. Doesnt affect anything.

Crack in drivers side door panel and some bolster wear on drivers seat
Some slight bubbling on sail panel
P.Antenna motor works but antenna stays down
AC belt was cut before I bought it. All is there and I have a new belt to go on.
Rattles and Vibration issue were taken care of today.. Torque Arm bolts were not even finger tight. Took it for a drive and didnt notice any rattles or vibration.
I am 100% honest with my vehicles. I have bought .. sold and traded many over the years through craigslist and forums.. I dont hide anything and every little thing I know... so will you. So if you have a trade offer... be completely upfront about it.

Any chance you will part with that hood? I have a slp ram air ho hood to trade already black. I might be willing to throw some cash on top to. I inquired about the car a couple months ago when you were on the fence about selling it. Why did you change your mind?

I probably wont part with the hood. It just flows with the car too well. To be honest most people dont even notice its not stock.
As far as selling the car.. I dont really know lol. I usually go about a year and want to move on to something else...maybe a Terminator this time. If it doesnt sell in a couple weeks for what Im asking Ill probably hang on to it a while.
I realize the buyer may be worried about the vibration issue.. I can say this. It started when I changed my tires/wheels/rotors and pads... which I did all at the same time. So I imagine its a tire balance issue. Going from 17s to 19s magnifies every bump in the road so the problem may have been there the whole time. Its not a scary vibration or anything.. just something that annoys me.
If anyone is interested please come take a look at it. I make it sound worse than it is.

I would also consider a trade for a Z28 depending on mods etc.. preferably a HOSS. Ive ALWAYS wanted a Hugger Orange 99. For some reason my heart just belongs with a Z.
Feel free to make trade offers.

Oh btw i do have a set of stock firebird wheels to throw on top of the hood deal if that would help to persuade you. They have two worn nitto nt555r's and two bridgestone something or anothers.

No thanks Stuink. Trade needs to be a 6 speed for sure. Thanks though.
Blazen that may be a possibility. Im in northwest IL so not terribly far away. Email me a couple pics of the hood if u get a chance.

I appreciate some of the offers but the prices are pretty firm. I might be willing to work out a deal with some of the parts... or find some decent tires for the stock camaro wheels etc.. but Ive had some ridiculous offers. So please dont lowball... the car is worth what Im asking.
