It has been a long time...
Last time I was on here was almost a year ago with my 3.4L 95...
Anyway, I am getting this today http://ventura.craigslist.org/cto/2198502741.html It will be my first time in a z28 AND my first manual transmission car... Any ideas on what to expect? What should I be looking for when I pick it up? It feels good to be a future member of the Z club!! Bowties forever!!! x01660 |
That looks like a nice Z. Welcome to the Z club.

I got the Camaro. Its a 95 Z/28 M6 Vert. Silver. Black leather interior, black ragtop (don't have a camera at the moment, so pictures will come soon). I swear it looks like it just came off of the showroom floor. Even had the window sticker and everything. It was owned by some old guy who just wanted to get rid of it. I paid $3000 for it.
Going from a 95 3.4 coupe to this is, well.... Magical. In between me selling my sixxer due to girl problems (never again!!) Ive had Fords.... God I hate fords..... Anyway, this car is more than I could dream for. Miles are a little high (190,xxx), but it starts right up and drives like a dream. And for anyone newbies who ask this question, I tell you. As a newbie. GET THE 6 SPEED!!!! DO IT!!!! Don't think, just do! This is my first standard car, and I was really apprehensive..... Oh GAWD!!! The fun of rowing through the gears!!! And traffic really isnt that bad at all.... So get the M6!!! I will post soem pictures as soon as I get a camera, but in the meantime, I will be enjoying my ride, and "eating rice and pooping fords!!!!!" I love this forum, and that's why I came back. Thanks to all who gave me help in the past (craby) and LONG LIVE F- BODIES!!!! x01660 P.S. If anyone is in the Santa Barbara area (CA Central Coast), PM me and we can cruise or something. Cool ;) |

I traded a 2000 Camry for the 98 Mustang... Stupid. I figured that experience with the 85 Tempo was long enough in the past, and that Ford had most certainly got itself together since that point. Wrong, what a piece of junk!! I will never, ever own a Ford again! Fix Or Repair Daily.... whoever came up with that is not kidding! Loving my Camaro so far, no love lost for that Mustang..... |

Just saying |
Pictures are coming soon. I do have a question though. I have 193k on the odo, and I am going to be getting the Lloyd Elliott 1LE H/C package. Should I rebuild the bottom end (if I do, it will be forged) or will it be ok? and will the 10 bolt hold 400 HP through the T-56? Thanks.

looks good. steal at that price. you should be ok to do a le1 head change so long as you dont get carried away with a big cam.

first thing I'd do (other than dump the salad shooters and not drive 140mph on the street) is put a shorter bolt on the alternator. Dang that bolt comes perilously close to the upper radiator hose.
Please tell me you don't live in FL. I don't need a kid going 140 mph on the street as my own 3 children are going about their day. |
