Good stuff! Details on condition; Roller?

[ar0ck]

Its a complete 94' Z28 6-Speed Roller, has a seized motor, but the body has under 80k miles on, complete with everything else too. I'm just waiting to get some more pics, and find out how to get it to my sisters house in Hawthorne to be stored for a few more months. Possibly have the work started while I'm still here in the 'Stan! Excited would be an understatement right now. Big plans, I'm thinking of going with a scheme similar to the new 1LE Camaro

[maroman88]

[V]

[townsend]

yess!!

[coolmanvette75]

looking foward to this build

[donnj]

Go man go....

[sweetbmxrider]

Looks like some fresh paint. Where is the car now and where does it need to go?

[shadowfire]

1LE rocks make sure you go with a aluminum race craft drive shaft

[zuuhlsT/A]

Car looks really clean. Good luck with it

[greenformula92]

Oh man I am ready for this build to get started!!

[WayFast84]

I cant wait to see what you end up doing with it. Should look killer if you do the hood and stripe like that.

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

Saw that earlier, congrats! Can't wait to see the progress and end result.

[creeper]

sweet!!

[ar0ck]

Thank you gentleman for the support, once I'm home count on me calling on some hands to turn this project around quickly!

Looks like some fresh paint. Where is the car now and where does it need to go?

The car is up in Wantage just past Vernon, I'm trying to reach back to a few people back home with trailers to see what it'll cost to get it to either my parents house or my brother in laws in Hawthorne.

From what the owner has told me, the original owner blew a head gasket, attempted to do the work themselves, and let the car sit with an exposed motor. The person who owns it now has kept it under wraps in his barn for the past year, so all it really needs is a motor.

The game plan is to take leave sometime in April/May of 2013 when I'm back in the states and hopefully strip both cars down and swap as many salvageable parts from the Silver car to the Red car over a few weekends. I'll be parting out the entire drivetrain from the Red car to recoup some of the funds. I'm trying to save as much as possible on this swap, I still need a daily driver when I return to California.

I'm trying to do this one a little differently, the 1LE scheme is generally where I'm headed for the body, but I'm really liking the idea of a matte bronze 17" wheel. The 355 will definitely stay the same, maybe do a little more suspension tweaking if the budget allows, and i'm definitely going to take my time and do it right.

What?

[coolmanvette75]

What?

Was thinking the same thing

Let me know if your other leads fall through and I'll talk to my boss about borrowing a truck. Its a roller, right?

[qwikz28]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[madness410]

looks like a good project. i liked your taste in looks with your silver one, cant wait to see what this one turns out

[Tru2Chevy]

Congrats Alex, can't wait to see how the finished product turns out!

I have a truck and tow dolly, Vernon is about 40 mins from me. Let me know where this has to be picked up from and goto and consider it done. PM me if interested

[Squirrel]

keeping it T?

[ar0ck]

Here are some more pictures I got from the owner, just trying to put things in their places and get in touch with people who will be helping me on my behalf!

The door thing is a bit of a concern, I have no idea how to tackle something like that.

[ar0ck]

Interiors a little rough around the edges, but thankfully my interior out of my Silver car is in good shape.

[NJ Torque]

Door is just to replace it.

[sweetbmxrider]

You can glue in back on like how GM did.

[Jersey Mike]

I'm sure you can pick up a Camaro door for cheap. Heck, I'm selling a great condition one off a Firebird for only $40. Finding something like that may be worth spending the few dollars and saving the hassles of the body work involved.



Or, you know, JBWeld! :lol:

[sweetbmxrider]

You want some manual window regulators to give it the full on 1le?

[ar0ck]

Kinda, I just like the clean look of my black leather door panels

[ins0mnia24]

That door is a $20 fix all you need is a fiberglass compatible epoxy and some clamps.
plenty of west marine stores around I highly recommend this stuff

[NastyEllEssWon]

for such low mileage that thing is dog**** dirty

[ar0ck]

for such low mileage that thing is dog**** dirty

Not sure, but from my understanding its been sitting for a while, its all getting tossed either way and replaced with my black interior, new headliner and new carpet.

[greenformula92]

Reglue or replace the door. I had a 94 Z28 that did the same thing and I just kinda lived with it for a while and was just carefull with it

Hey Don, shot you a PM. Anyone else able to possibly tow directly to Josh at JS Performance?

[89 Trans Am WS6]

Parting the drive train eh? ;>

Lemme know what ya need help with bro, you know how to get a hold of me.

[creeper]

my door separated in the front, used some panel bonding adhesive and it's holding up fine

I approve if you go that route.
