Default 2000 IRS Trans AM?

Alright guys what do you think. I am getting ready to head over to China for medical school and have to sell my pride and joy.

Its a 2000 TA with a M12 T56, an IRS out of a '95 C4 vette with an upgraded monospring from VBP, SSR GT1 rims, raptor hood, ls6 intake, comp cam 1.75 rockers, underdrive pulley, fidanza aluminum flywheel, ls6 clutch, Longtubes and full exhaust, custom PCM tune, corbeau suede seats, full cadence sound system and more I'm probably forgetting. The rear has 50K miles, the tranny has 5K, and the engine and body has 116k but with no oil leaks or issues, runs like new! For pictures go to http://www.fquick.com/99_orange_SS and I'll try to get pictures of the IRS up soon. I believe it is still only the second TA ever done with this and its amazing!

I love it man its awesome....Even with the very stiff spring rate from the VBP spring its smoother than stiff coils and then it'll just lock up at high speeds and really dig in the corners....GM really should've done it in to start with because it wasn't all that difficult by any means. It does help to have some engineering experience though haha.


Think its worth 14K?

Cause it was a lot of work and there is a lot of money and design in that rear!

I would think $14,000 is a good starting point because of the uniqueness, if nothing else. But I gotta ask, why would you want to part with a car that you have so much time and energy into? That one looks like a keeper.

Trust me I don't want to! Its just I will be in China for 5 years for medical school and could use the money to help with paying for medical school instead of just letting the poor thing set in storage the whole time. Plus I may have a family member that may want it that way I can keep tabs on it and possibly get it back when I come back haha.
