I hate doing this but I have to sell my Camaro. I'll be going back to school in the fall and I need the money and a reliable car. I had intentions of keeping this car forever, but I gotta do what I gotta do. It's still a project right now, but it's 98% done. The main problem with it right now is that it won't shift out of first gear. It could be the governor or something with the valve body. Basically I'm out of time, money, and a garage to work on it in. It will need a paint job too. Other than that everything is pretty much new. Here's a list of the mods

I have AT LEAST $8000 invested in this car. I'm only looking to get about $3000 out of it. I'm very, very negotiable though. Someone could buy this car, part it out, and make a crap ton of money. I would part it out, but I don't have the time or space to do it. Or it could be made drivable with just a little more work. Since it's not drivable, it'll have to be towed. If needed I can have it towed pretty much anywhere in St. Louis area for no charge. I would love to keep this car, but basically it has become too much of a money and time pit. I just need out from under it. So, $3000 but I'm very, very negotiable.


**UPDATE**
There's a member of this forum that lives close to me that would be willing to let me borrow some space to part this car out. That being the case, I'm pretty firm on $3000 now since I would make a ton more money parting it out.

 

 

WOW!! awesome deal for who ever gets it!

 

Good thing it's so far away, otherwise I might have done something that would get me into trouble.

 

This is a VERY good deal, good luck on the sale!

 

Free delivery to Canada? lol

 

Awesome deal. At that price I wouldn't expect that car to stay on the market more than a couple days.

 

$3000 is a great deal for whoever gets this car. Just adding up the receipts I can find for this car puts me at over $8000 invested. That doesn't include everything I've bought because I don't have receipts from Paypal or eBay. I have a feeling this car won't be on the market for more than a week or so.

I hate to sell it, but I've made my peace with it and I'm prepared for it to go. It sucks a lot but I'm just not in the position financially to keep it at this point.

 

It always kills me when people part out perfectly good cars. They make more money sure, but that's another thirdgen body that ultimately ends up at the scrap yard.

 

on the other hand, it allows multiple other cars to avoid the scrap yard.

 

Potentially.

 

damn!

 

I understand the whole argument about parting vs. selling as a whole. That's why someone should buy my car as a whole so I don't have to part it

 

SOLD! I hate to see it go, but I'm glad to have the money. It's not going to be parted out either, so it will live on

 

Well when a car is still in good shape with a perfectly usable body, it should be kept whole in my mind. Now if they are wrecked and beyond reasonable repair then sure, part the sucker out. In this case you clearly put a lot of work into it and having to dismantle the car and sell it just seems like a shame to me. So I'm glad she was sold whole.
