87 Camaro possibly for sale :(

Sooooooo, I know I didn't buy a new car. I was planning on slowly building my 87 up and getting it to good shape. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that I don't have the time nor money to get this thing back into prime shape. I know next to nothing about wiring, and the wiring is one of my major problems. It keeps shorting out and causing my radiator fan to shut of which over heats my car. Having to add to an already ghetto wiring job isn't fixing something lol Since I live in an apartment, it's not like I can keep the car sitting, nor do I have room to drop the engine and do a major overhaul. Needless to say, since I'm going to school and work every single day I need a more reliable commuter. I'd love to keep her, but it doesn't look feasable at this point. She's what I want... Not what I need

She drives fine, except for the wiring. 150k-ish miles. Burning a little oil, but I haven't found the source. Interior I'd give an 8/10. Needs new headliner and dash top. Custom paint job! Exterior I'd give a 7/10. No dents, but it's rattle canned and needs a new bumper. There's bondo on this one. It works.

I thought I'd give you guys first crack at her. I know ya'll would be more liable to take good car of her and treat her like she deserves than some high school kid. Plus I'd sell it to ya'll cheaper than the Craigslist community.

$1000 firm if ya'll want her. That's less than I paid and MUCH less than I'm gonna post her for on Craigslist. I'll post pics if anyone is interested. This post makes me a sad panda.

Thanks, brah. I want to keep her but I just don't have any way to give her the attention that she needs right now. Once I get a place with a garage I'm gonna do things right and go from the ground up. LS baby!

Yeah. It's a LG4. An LG4? Hrmm... The proper English eludes me lol

She was originally dark blue. Someone stripped her down to the metal before I bought her so I put the rattle can paint job.

Re: 87 Camaro possibly for sale :(

I was just trying to clarify for the people who look at the thread to look at the car and not say anything themselves. Good luck with the sell.
