well too bad im sellng it....just need that v8 power

Looks cool.. too bad you're selling it.

just curious why u selling?

too slow.... need more cylinders. seriously, its painfully slow. other then that its a pretty nice car. well except for the fact that the t tops leak and the dash is cracked pretty bad. but those arent to bad. mainly just the slow reason. i think i will put it on ebay tonight.

how much u asking?

ummm 28000 but make an offer, where you live? im in cocoa beach florida.

aint no f-ing way that car is worth that much. :p

think he meant one less 0. not saying your price range is wrong but u might want to lower it some

Actually it's pretty good since it has a new barely used engine.. like I said i'd pay about 500 less than that or something

the new engine is definately a plus, but unfortunately 2.8's aren't worth that much... they're like the 305, most people consider them worth more as a really freakin heavy paperweight...

the exterior and paint seem to be in good shape, which is by far your best selling point. don't get your hopes set on 2800, prolly wont happen, unfortunately it prolly won't even be close...

i will take like 2500. maybe a little less. i actually just got done listing it on ebay. tell me if you think i should change anything or add some stuff. heres the link:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.com%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fse arch.dll%3Fsofocus%3Dbs%26sbrftog%3D1%26from%3DR10 %26satitle%3D4574142426%2509%26sacat%3D-1%2526catref%253DC6%26bs%3DSearch%26fmmk%3D%26fmmd %3D%26fylo%3D%26fyhi%3D%26mppfqy%3D4574142426%2509 %26sargn%3D-1%2526saslc%253D2%26sadis%3D200%26fpos%3D32931%26f trt%3D1%26ftrv%3D1%26saprclo%3D%26saprchi%3D%26fso p%3D1%2526fsoo%253D1%26coaction%3Dcompare%26copage num%3D1%26coentrypage%3Dsearch%26fvi%3D1&item=4574142426

i'd keep it and performe a 350 swap, and sell the 2.8 and put the money toward the swap expense.

The thing is that he already found another Camaro that he's going to buy with the money that he gets from selling this one.. and according to him it was pretty fast. So yeah.. also the Ebay thing was pretty cool, lots of pics which would help out in the selling.

thats cool man, i hope u sell her quick so u can get that new toy

thanks, i hope it leaves soon too

BUY MY CAR!!! PLEASE!!! I posted it a while ago but it didnt get much attention. Its a red 89 camaro rs with a 305 v8 and 142000 miles and still runs great. Which wont match the power of that iroc that you were looking at but it is a good base to build off of because it already has a v8. Koni shocks eibach lowering springs, chrome wheels, grant steering wheel, interior is in excellent shape. The car does need paint however. New front brake pads, shoes, bearings, and brake flex lines, new master cylinder, new a/c compressor, and recently changed the oil. Im asking $1,500 for it if your interested. Im in Altamonte Springs which is North east of orlando. I have to sell this car soon. Theres a pic on this site. (i know the site is kinda gay. i made it when i first got the car and was really excited) www.geocities.com/w007camaro (http://www.geocities.com/w007camaro)

did you ever do any of this?- "Stuff i'd like to do in the future is Intake manifold, nitrous, bigger TBI, headers, chip,....."
if its a manual im intrested.

HAHA....no....like i said ....i was really excited at the time. No its an auto. poo....anyone else interested?

I'm interested in the 92z....

yeah for real me too...wait is it an auto???? cause im sick of driving automatics when i could be driving a manual. its painfull. especially since i drove that tpi 305 all modded out that had a 5 spd. damn someone buy my car!!!!!

yeah they never gave the manual transmission with the 350 motor. Couldnt take it and be very reliable or something. It would be sweet to swap in a t56 one day. But its the auto for now. But i cant complain. She's purty.

Why buy when you can sell your engine and put a 305 with a t5 in, and then just swap any fuel injection in there.

because i want to start over. plus i just put that engine in id rather not do it over. and i dontt have that kinda money. and i wouldnt have a car for a while.
i have like 900.so i need to sell my car to buy anything. ok well looks like im getting a 305 if the 350 didnt ever come with a manual trans.how hard is it to put a manual in a auto 350? did they have different cranks and stuff?

i will take like 2500. maybe a little less. i actually just got done listing it on ebay. tell me if you think i should change anything or add some stuff. heres the link:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.com%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fse arch.dll%3Fsofocus%3Dbs%26sbrftog%3D1%26from%3DR10 %26satitle%3D4574142426%2509%26sacat%3D-1%2526catref%253DC6%26bs%3DSearch%26fmmk%3D%26fmmd %3D%26fylo%3D%26fyhi%3D%26mppfqy%3D4574142426%2509 %26sargn%3D-1%2526saslc%253D2%26sadis%3D200%26fpos%3D32931%26f trt%3D1%26ftrv%3D1%26saprclo%3D%26saprchi%3D%26fso p%3D1%2526fsoo%253D1%26coaction%3Dcompare%26copage num%3D1%26coentrypage%3Dsearch%26fvi%3D1&item=4574142426

600 dollars bag of jolly ranchers and a big ty?

HAHA....no....like i said ....i was really excited at the time. No its an auto. poo....anyone else interested?

You're NE of Orlando? I'm up in Jax. Your selling it pretty cheap, anything wrong with it? I'm all for automatics, got one right now. I'm lookin for a beater car in the mean time, bacause I deliver pizzas in my moms Kia, but she just recently finally got another job. So I'm having to use my car for a couple hours, then come trade out with her once she gets home. Whats the gas mileage like with it? I've got a little over a grand saved up right now that I'm going to use to get a second car. So if you can give me some of the specs on it, how she runs, does it start fine, is the tranny still shifting fine.. you know, the basic run down. Then I might be interested.

BTW, same questions go out to you 88camaroproject. I know you just did the engine swap which looks marvelous I might add. I'd love to have a maro for a delivery car, but It's gotta get semi decent gas mileage. Otherwise I'm just gonna keep lookin for a cheap ol 4cyl.

i think i am getting 19 or 20 mpg now with my new engine. the old one got 18.5 or something when i figured it out. by the way my bro goes to college at unf. well anyways my car leaks. everyday i have been trying to fix all 5 leaks( all around the t tops) and i have only fixed 2 so far. its pissing me off. umm but anyways the trans shifts amazingly to 2nd, then you feel the shift to third and the rest are pretty smooth. and in the morning you have to rev it up like 2 times then let it settle down before driving it other wise for the first like 50 feet it hesitates and runs crappy then its all good from there on. umm email me if you more pics or info or videos of it. btw did you look at the auction? if not heres the link- http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4574142426
i will end the auction early if you just wanna come and buy it. butyeah email me if you wann come and check it out or something ( [email protected] ) and do you know bob hull or mike trosset or drew buckland or any kids from unf. my bros on his way here from jax right now actually.

good luck man, iv'e been thinking about selling mine too. im getting the v8 itch as well i dont think mine is worth more than $700 though

I getting a Rabbit Diesel? for daily life + plus another project to make money out of.
The only surprising thing is that v6s arent fuel efficient at all. WTF? I get same mlg out a v8 car that I used to get out my v6.

the specs for mine are simply the 89 camaro 305 tbi with auto and 142,000 miles. She starts fine and runs strong. My car also needs a minute in the morning just to sit and idle. The tranny shifts fine and also can give a firm 1->2 shift. But everything is fine. Ive havent had any problems since i have had the car. The previous owner is my sis's boyfriend who upgraded to a 98 z28 and sold me the old car. He had the car since 60 or 70 thousand miles and it has had nothing but baby treatment since then(oil changed strickly every 3000 miles, etc.). The rearend was replaced a couple years ago. All the stuff i posted before as well as a new alternator just because i could because it was under warranty. I have reciepts and records for the car going back a couple owners. Lemme know.

do you know bob hull or mike trosset or drew buckland or any kids from unf. my bros on his way here from jax right now actually.

Nah, I don't know any. I'm takin a year off from school right now. I do have a ton of friends who are goin there right now, I can ask and see if maybe they know them.

I've got to save up a little more money, so if you or 92z still have your maro's for sale, then I'll hit ya'll up. Should only take a few weeks. I was originally going to use this money to buy rims, so it's pretty tough for me to have to use this money on another ride. Especially as ugly as my rims are.. And 92z, would you possibly be able to get some more pics?

Someone buy is car. {Sheds tear....}He tired of gettin pooped on by hondas.

Dude thats a major diss.. :owned:

Dude thats a major diss.. :owned:
yes it is, it hurts, but sadly its true. i think some rich person should buy my car and give it to some kid cause he would be happy cause he got a free car and i would be happy cause i would then have the money to buy a new maro. and it wouldnt phase(sp?) the rich guy. that would be the shizzle.
