1987 z28 LT1/T56 buy now or Cash for Clunkers


http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/ca...8-lt1-t56.html

I want to buy it but I dont like 4th gen interior in a third gen, it never fits right plus it has no ac which I think would be hard to install on a count of the interior swap

Clean car, hood is hideous though.

That car was for sale on here a while back. Don't know if it is the same owner though.

What he should do is rip out the LT1/T56 and swap in a 305TBI/700r4 before he trades it in.

Getting 4500 bucks on top of your trade in is not retarded IMO...
Money is money, whether you get it from a buyer or the government.

The only problem I have is that, it is my money going towards this, I didn't sign something saying I was ok with it, I would never let my money go to something that would allow the destruction of great pieces of classic american heritage. A camaro like that although newer than its predecessors is still part of a line of classic muscle carsor pony cars.

We will save a piece of land or an animal that hunts down and eats the flesh off of dying animals or has lethal venom, but we won't save a car with history... Sounds like we have too much pull one way. I wish I had the money to save it from its hideous hood and horrible destruction.

Jesus christ man its just a mass produced, stamped steel POS. You guys with your Camaros are so great **** just crack me up. They're cool but come on, comparing saving living, breathing animals to saving a POS hunk a metal? Thats laughable at best
