How to completely make a fool of yourself.
Check out this Camaro...

Although I have to admit, its probably easy to change the oil.

big deal you can get rid of wheels. its not like the end all be all. ive deffinately seen worse....as a matter of fact...that z28 is 1 of 323 ever made. the price is decent too. pick that car up for like 6400....sell the wheels for like 5-600 (at the least) and bam....cheap ls1 car

depends on what else was done to make it sit like that and what cost to make it right. Argh, what an unsafe disaster.

Not to mention people who are into crap like that typically don't take care of their cars. I wouldn't want to buy a car from someone who does stuff like that.

Apples to oranges here, but I am pretty sure you can't just throw those rims on without a lot of custom work to get things right..... different love.

you are confusing 26'' wheels with your everyday 20's and 22's. people that typically do mods like this also dont drive very fast and cruise at moderate speeds because of the turning radius dillema those wheels pose. if i had the cash id be at least checking this car out......

Bonzo would have just looked at it, and in a haze of doing things right, it would have been done. And on the 2nd day, he made the LS1.

LOL.
No, those were 2 thoughts. 1, hermit said the car was not a bad deal, but I'm thinking it is a lot of suspension work to fix it, thus rendering it not such a great deal. 2, the car in it's current state is dangerous. How to make it safe with those wheels? TNT.
PS: I use LS1s as paper weights.

i would buy it and offroad it. i wouldnt need my jeep anymore i got best of both worlds my camaro and jeep in one...whooo hoooo....jk..that height is not intended to be driven everyday.. it has money into it but not something i would invest in doing but thats him. ya just sucks he used a camaro to do that but atleast he did something to a camaro and not like its a normal camaro that sits on side of peoples houses with crap piling up around it because they dont care to much about the car. imo i dont like that kind of stuff with cars but to each his own right.

The idea of putting wheels like that on a passenger car let alone a sports car is retarded. I'm 90% sure that it would be a POS. I wouldn't buy that for $4000...the shame of driving that home or having it in my driveway would be overwhelming
