    Post FS/FT: Black 1997 Z8 Camaro

    Make: Chevrolet
    Model: Z28 Camaro
    Year: 1997
    Mileage: Slightly under 95,000
    Options: Leather, PW, PDL, PS, T-Tops, Automatic.
    Mods: Listed below VVV
    Engine: 5.7 LT1
    VIN#: PM for serious buyers

    Condition: According to kbb, it would fall under the "Good" category.

    PRICE: Due to the extent of replacement and modifications, I am looking for $7000. While not 100% firm, I'm not going to go incredibly lower, because yes, the car has some slight cosmetic damage which isn't very obvious, but also because of the condition the engine/trans are in (Amazing). I will also consider trades for an import, preferably turbo or AWD.

    Hi guys,

    Recently I have been wanting to get back into the import world after I sold my 1996 240SX. Up for sale is my 1997 Black Z28 Camaro, with the following modifications:

    - Ceramic Coated Pacesetter Emission Legal Longtube Headers (Has the AIR Pump and EGR hooked up to the headers to pass emissions)

    - K&N FIPK Intake System with a newish filter (<5000 miles).

    - Magnaflo Catback exhaust with a cut-out near the rear axle. Has 3 wingnuts that you unscrew to bypass the muffler.

    - Fuddle Racing 3200 Stall Converter. This is what makes owning an automatic fun.

    - PCMFORLESS Tuning. These are the best mail-order tuners for the LT1 & LS1 community as far as I, and z28.com among other sites are concerned.

    History of owning the car: I sold my 240SX right before I went to college for freshman year. When I got it, it needed some work, and since I have owned it, I have collected all receipts of replacements which total over $2200. If you know anything about LT1's, you know that the intake often leaks in the rear of the engine, and that the opti-spark is a pain in the ass to change out. I have fixed the intake leak and had the optispark changed under 3000 miles ago.

    Also has a Pioneer faceplate with remote and had Sirius sat. radio when I got it, but the subscription ran out. The receiver is still in the trunk panel though, so it could be reactivated and used easily.

    New (<3000 miles) Parts on the car:

    Sparkplugs (NGK TR55)
    Sparkplug Wires (Taylor 8mm Pro, have a set of Over the valve cover pieces but have not had time to put them on)
    Optispark (Cap, rotor AND DISTRIBUTOR)
    Waterpump
    IAC
    Knock Module
    TPS
    Transmission was flushed late last year (<4000 miles)
    Oil changes every 3000 with Mobil 1 oil & filter
    Falken ZIEX 255/50/16 tires in the rear

    GOOD: Fast, fast, fast. Semirare, 30th anniversary edition (Seat logos, slightly more HP/Torque stock (285hp/325tq stock). Kept in good condition. T-Tops do not leak, burns no oil and does not leak oil. For a chevy, thats almost scary.

    BAD: Has one scratch behind passenger side door that I am having worked on, when I got the car it was there, as was the damage to the door (Looks like someone hit it pretty hard). An estimate to get this damage fixed locally was $210.

    CONTACT METHOD: PM me or email me @ [email protected]

    Thank you a lot for looking and everyone have a safe Memorial Day Weekend!

    Thanks

    Forgot to add, I'm located in the Chamblee Tucker area, so if anyone wants to see it, I'm out here.

    I'll add interior shots tomorrow.

    Also forgot to mention that I have Lower Control Arms for it and the interior is leather (With the 30th anniversary logos on the seats).

    It's got the 4L60E which is a 4 speed automatic, and it has a 3200 stall converter, which is kind of hard to describe, but it pretty much eliminates the "dead spots" in an automatic, so you just romp the gas and it hits its powerband sooner.

    The bigger stall allows the engine to spin up to the powerband quicker is the best way to put it I guess.

    The tranny was flushed/serviced under 1000 miles ago, too.
