Hello,

I have a few questions about the Camaro.
What modifications have you made that totaled up to $20,000 do you have receipts
for all these purchases?
If not do you have installation dates and time?
Who performed the modifications done to this car?
Do you know what this car makes on a dyno?
What transmission is this car hooked up to?

Thanks,
Devin

Did this kid not pass first grade?

I think the brand new fruits cost $20,000.
If he put 20k into that 350, he could have saved some money and just bought an LS7 for 4k less.

NastyEllEssWon 08-19-2009 07:51 PM

zr1 crates are like 22k :mrgreen:

BlckBRDLS1 08-19-2009 08:04 PM

Its kinda sad to say this but I kno like 6 people at least who would see 20k under the hood and the 5k price and buy it cuz they think they are gettin a steal.

but it has new chrome head covers, those babies are expensive, well worth the 20k invested:lol:

FlyingDutchman 08-19-2009 09:10 PM

i guess its too expensive for me to take a test drive, or maybe its because the radial is coming outa the dry rotted tires and the break lines arnt connected to the paddless rotors and the trans wont shift outa park anymore, but im sure he's trying to protect his investment noone wants there 20k being joy ridden

I wrote him..

Hello
I really like your car. It's an impressive machine, to say the least. They really don't make them like they used to.

Anyway, I read in your ad that trades might be accepted.

Would you take the following in trade? An old 8 track player, used mattress (minimal stains), used tires off an '84 honda civic, and some white castle gift certificates?

Pablo


can't wait for the reply

I sent him this last night:

Quote:

Hello,

What is your estimated rear wheel horsepower?
Who polished the heads, were they ported or just polished?
What pistons, rings, rods, intake are on the engine?
What size is the cam?
Were the lifters, rocker arms, push rods upgraded too?
Who tuned the car after the mods were done?
Does the 700 have any work done to it?
No answer yet.
