Hi everyone. So lately I have been craving the power of a v8 and put up my little 1995 3.4 camaro(see album for pics) for trade. I got this offer a 95 lt1 auto, front end needs painted, has a new interior and headliner he will throw in because the seats are ripped and there is no headliner, and has 130,000 miles on it. He says it hasn't been wrecked he just used the clips from this car to put on another camaro, and put spare camaro clips back on it. I was just wondering if you guys think this is a good trade. I am looking for a daily driver to work on, but wanted to see what you guys with experience think first.

 

thats not TERRIBLE. you can get seat covers and paint that quick

 

Thats kind of what I was thinking, but what about the headliner? I know you can't do those yourself how much would that cost to do?

 

it sounds like a decent deal i would get it checked out by a mechanic and make sure it runs right and everything is in order, the rest is cosmetic you can get that done or do it your self easily if he's giving you new int. but definitely get it checked out by a mechanic.

 

I got a buddy who owns a tranny shop/shop so I probably take it to him and have him look at it. I know a decent amount from reading about the lt1, but how "built" is it? Assuming he didn't spin the tires at every turn do they usually make 180,000 to 200,000?

 

Haha the headliner on mine is shot too, im going to rip it out and do something with it.. a friend of mine has a camaro and got it estimated at 2250 for headliner, seats and floor. so probably really cheap

 

haha yea my headliner is dead, my car has about 203,000 miles on it i just put a new tranny and engine(along with everything else on the car lol) in it about 2 or 3k ago it will be good if everything is in order and everything is where it should be and functioning correctly

 

im at 151k right now, rebuilt the motor 40k ago when everything was done to it. one lean mean machine. lol also rebuild tranny1k ago.
