I sold my 3rd gen last week and I am looking into getting a Z28/TA powered by a LT1 and has a 6-speed (no automatics).

Is there any problems I should be looking for in particular on these cars? Electronics, drivetrain etc...?

 

No worse or better than other cars, just depends how well maintained. The exception being the optispark distributor which hates to get wet and dies.

 

I am in New Port Richey, about 8 miles from Holiday!

Its good to see fellow Floridians....

Chas, since you are in the area, why not pickup a Autotrader and take a look at the car I'm going to be looking at this week..

It is a 1996 Z28 M6 131k exhaust, stereo, tint. Pretty clean by the pics...

 

yea i live in deltona FL, lived in daytona beach for 10 years lol....looking to buy me a camaro but no dealerships around here have any....stupid prvate sellers are beat up....bad stupid floridans lol

 

Hey, my 3rd gen was in very good shape, but it was from Ohio so their was rust everywhere on it. Even the newer paint showed signs of rust. Keep looking jerywalker, I would buy another third if it wasnt for the T5's reputation. The T56's in the TB area seem to last whenever I ask 4th gen owners about it.

 

man you should see this 98 trans am in my neighborhood the guy put over 200,000 miles on it and wonders why it dosent run too well, hes asking 5,000 i swear in about 1k miles that car is going to explode lol

 

If ya get the car come and take a look at my 97 SS Z-28 , i got it last week! It has 67,000 miles looks like new inside and out.

The car has a body kit, after market hood, and 18" rims, only problem is has both rear and main seal leaks, i knew this before buying it!

SS/Z-28 sounds like a beast dealership or private seller? any pics of it? im looking to get a(n) 00-02 SS but no dealerships around here have one its sad really lol

 

It was a dealer i got it from, they said nothing about the leaks.

I'm glad i smelled burning oil and took a peak under the car!
