Default Hi All

So I first fell in love with the camaro when I bought my brand new 99 SS in 99. After a trip to the local dragstrip the modding began (a typical story I'm sure) Well the car turned into a race only car. With twins on the way I couldn't justify spending the time or money on the car so I let it go.

I am from Canada and I am working in Florida for a couple of years. I figured that while down here I can search for a rust free southern camaro and do a LSx M6 swap into it. Maybe a Schwartz frame in the future and a "Baby" turbo.

So if anyone knows of a reasonably priced 2nd gen please let me know.

Thanks,

Roman

Welcome to the Forums. Good luck with your search. early 2nd gens are pricey now so I assume you are looking for a later model. What part of Fl you working in? I will keep an eye out for you and let you know if I see anything. I'm in NW FL.

Hi Guys

Thanks for the welcomes. I have noticed that the early 2nd gens are a bit more dough. But luckily I'm not in a hurry, so I will be looking for a nice clean f body until I find what I am looking for, early or late is fine for me.

I'm in Miami, been here since February now.

I attached a pic of my(used to be) Camaro.

Thanks,

Roman

wow ok I totally missed the part of you being in Florida. Im just outside of Orlando. There is a nice 2nd gen thats very close to my house and the guy wants 6k for it. Its a powder blue and runs great. I will get some more details of it if you like.

Hi

Thanks, but I would prefer a roller. I am looking to drop a modern drivetrain into her.

But thanks for the heads up.
