hey guys

i just picked up my first car today, and was wondering if it was a good deal and maybe get some advice.

i payed 1000 dollars for a 1985 camaro Z28, it has a 350v8 engine from a 1989 Iroc that was just rebuilt and only driven 2 months afterwards. it has a ugly home paint job but the body had no rust,dents or damage at all, interior is clean and also no damage. its a T top, has some high proformance parts like hedders on it.

now for the bad, it runs great but he said the tork converter was bad but my dad thinks its the trans, he knows how to put it in so i was wondering if anyone knows what vehicles i can take one off of at the local pick and pull.

a new converter and other parts came with the car, but it would be a pain if i switched it and had to take it apart again cause it was the trans afterall.

 

Usually when i go to the local pick and pull i dont go for tranny stuff. why do you think its there to begin with. but in this time and age i would say stick with another 3rd gen camaro. cant find one go for a chevy 1500.

 

1000$ for a good running 350 in a non-rusty fbody is always a good deal.

 

Got one?
