Delima, I want a camaro!!

[B4C]

So I want a camaro badly! I like my car but to get as much hp as a stock ss I would be spending some bucks as theres no aftermarket for it and I would have to hunt for used cobra parts for it. Some parts are discontinued ex: headlight bulbs:evil: Security module:evil: and a vast aray of other parts that fail on a car of its age, and there expensive. At the same time I want to get my nova on the road I have money saved to get my body work done, and have all the parts. I can sell the lincoln back to the previous owner cuz he wants it back for some reason:?: So what should I do sell my car and use my saved money to buy a camaro and take a shot at the body work myself, or put alittle money into the lincoln (ex: wheels, tint, smoke headlights-taillights) and have the nova done?

[DevilDougWS6]

save the nova, sell the lincoln, buy a nice ls1 car. you could put a down payment on a decent ls1 camaro, you could even buy one for less than 10 grand if you look hard enough.

+1. in this economy its a buyers market. and if you want to try to make a few bucks sell the lincoln back to the guy for more than you bought it. a guy on this forum did that and made a grand in one week :lol:

damn that is impressive

[dmheer08]

Get a third gen camaro

[BonzoHansen]

Sell the lincoln, get a DD/beater, fix the nova. More than 1 project car usualy results in no completed project cars. If you want a camaro really bad, sell the nova too.

Damn where the hell did you get yours from?

Dealer is having trouble moving from $9200 to $8500 for a formula with 65,000 miles.

[NJSPEEDER]

Dealers hate to move on price, they somehow think they deserve some magical mark up because they have those flag banners and people with name tags. :)

[mc73nova]

Keep the Nova, sell the Lincoln.

[maroman88]

craigs list... it needed tires and an alignment to be driveable, so anther 500 and i was all set

edit~ and a goooood cleaning

I cant sell the nova my dad wolnt let me because we have too much time and I have too much money into the car. I wanted to trade it and cash for a sweet pewter 01 ss w/ 570rwhp but Im not alowed. I have enought parts to get the nova on the road the body just wolnt be done which is fine I just want to drive the thing the interior is nice, and so is the engine and under cariage. If I sell the lincoln I will have enough to buy a decent f-body.

Thats what I need. Some idiot to be like "yeah it wont start so here have it for $5,000."

1 Starter later = profit.

i think we all would love that

[HeadlessNorseman]

My formula is the only used car ive ever been at a loss with. Ive sold all my other cars for either a profit or breaking even. Id have to sell the formy for about 2200 to break even with parts/purchase price :(. But other than that, my aunt bought a 98 6 speed t/a brand new, has 80k on it now, still has the original clutch. Its never needed anything outside of bulbs and a tune up. and 1 set of tires

[01blackz28]

b4c come check my camaro out sometime. im sure you won't be dissappointed.

If you need cash and have some Nova parts you aren't using shoot me a PM.

[BonzoHansen]

You want a pro-street car? Neat.

[LTb1ow]

It has a sweet cowl. Great for street driving. Big tires for traction in the snow.

Yeah shure nothing wrong with an 8 sec 632ci aluminum big block 1300 hp dd.
I think my head gaskets are toast on the lincoln as there is oil leaking from the undersides of the heads:cry:
I would really like something like this but I dont really trust a motor w/ nitrous run on it as a reliable dd. Dont really care about teh 6pt cage but the nitrous bothers me.

Um, I would take that car in a heartbeat. Looks like it was done the right way no expense spared.

Yeah Im seriously thinking of making him an offer. I love that car looks awosome in Peweter Metallic too:drool:and its really badd@$$

[B4C]

well I put an offer in on a 00 firehawk vert and a 99 ss vert so hopefully I'll be whipin and f-body soon also looking at 2 second gens.

[NastyEllEssWon]

wtf would you spend 20k on a 4th gen. that ss i can understand but still. holy christ. get a vette.



i bought both ls1 cars that ive had for well under 20k and still have enough left over underneath that 20k to buy another ls1 for around the same price.

I'm not buying all of them. The hawk is 13k Obo and the ss is 15k obo. The second gens are 7500 ea and have good drivetrains which I could sell to do an ls1 swap. Be found some ls1 in the area but they either have way too many miles or are auto which I don't want

[NastyEllEssWon]

i was saying the ss was 18k. holy christ

I thought you wanted a DD? What's with the 2nd gens?

[B4C]

I would dd a second gen and save for an ls1swap I prefer the older cars

[NastyEllEssWon]

its not practical. isnt the reason you wanted to get rid of the older cars is because parts a pita to find. second gens arent going to be much better. tread lightly. your on a borderline fail right now :wink:

[B4C]

I thought you were saying 20k for both hahahah. I offered 13 k for the ss and 11 for the hawk

Hahha I'm looking at a 71 camaro it just needs a fender which I can buy new. The headlight bulb kit for the linc is 1200 dollars:eek: oh and I think the head gaskets on the mark are bad because it's leaking oil from the undersides of the heads

[NastyEllEssWon]

haha theres no such thing as a 38 year old car needing only a fender. unless its fully restored...but then again needing a fender doesnt sound like the case.

[B4C]

Haha yeah true I'm forgetting about my old car $120 in gas a week plus what ever decided to brake and no ac uughhh that was brutal

[NastyEllEssWon]

ive only filled the tank in my t/a twice since ive had it and ive driven well over 500 miles and still have half a tank left.

[B4C]

damn that's good. Auto or manual?

[NastyEllEssWon]

6 speed:nod:

[BonzoHansen]

I love my 2nd gens but I'm not sure I'd want to dd it, at least in nj with a-holes, criminals, rain, cold and humidity. Maybe every nice day and have a beater too. Plus parts is a concern.

If I wanted a dd camaro maybe a nice late 3rd or more likely a late 4th gen. Well, I'd actually buy a new one but I am assuming you don't want that pmt. :p

My 77 clears 23+mpg highway with a questionble condition carb.

I actually don't mind a small car payment but a new one is out of the question . No turdgen for me though. I may go look at a new mustang see what my payments would be w/ my employee discount they have a coupe of 08's that they can't move

[1_Hot_SOM_WS6]

How many miles are on your Lincoln? I was going to mention the price of the headlight kits but I see you already mentioned it. I know they just dont make a lot of parts for them any more.
So if you sell your lincoln, what do u plan to drive while you look for an f-body......or a crappy mustang? Have an extra whip layen around that you can use as a dd while you shop around?

Haha yeah those damn headlights, I bought an aftermarket kit, and then got 2free ones that are practically new from my teacher. PM me if ya need em since I wolnt be much longer. My pats module alos died on me which suprise its discontinued:-x Fords GGGGAAAAAAYYYYY
Yeah the parts are expensive if you can get them, but I like the car there is just not point in putting that much into a car which has basically no resale value and that many miles. The head bolts are $15 a pop, and its got 120k so it will probably need chain tensioners and other stuff too.
I would whip the nova but it needs too much to be on the road right away, Ill just have to take the mom mobile and drive her to and from work when I need a car and ride my bicycle to Dunkin when I have to work. I can have the lincoln gone tomorrow if needed. Im looking at buying that bad ass ss that I posted the link to eariler in the thread but I dont think that I can scratch up that much coin. Im also looking at a 32k mi ss vert for 13000, and a 00 firehawk vert for 11500.
