tons of apperance stuff like wire tuck, custom FRC's, billit rad cover, braided fuel line conversion, fuel gauge under hood (not currently hooked up), Chevy centercaps for the wheels, Ultra Z badging, stripes, too much to list.

Oil was just changed and filter cut open to check for remnants of a broken Proform rocker tip. No metal was found and car has no wierd noises except for a slight ehxaust leak at a header collector (i need to find it and weld it up.)

the bad:

Paint is as old as car and was overbuffed by previous owner. Solvent pop in hood. 2 very small dings on pass side quarter. the common dimples in the tops of both quarters. Bumper was repaired and one crack has opened up, i have repaired it but a NOS OEM bumper cover will come with the car. the t top conversion was never totally lined up, but car never sees rain and is washed very carfully. 1 t top has scratches in the glass. small cut in the door gasket.

Car has ran as fast as 12.8x and dynoed over 340 to the wheels. AC blows cold and heat blows hot. Very good street car. Has win numerous awards and trophies. 2012 was voted best 4th gen at Carlisle GM nats. Motor and trans was pulled several years back and totally refreshed. Rear sounds good and posi works fine.

I have well over 15K into the car (including original purchase price), Hagerty values car @ $16,500. I dont need to sell, but am loosing interest in the car. I need to get it inspected and tagged still. It is a great very low milage 1993 and a great platform for more mods. There is prob more stuff i forgot to list, feel free to ask questions. This car has been a member of our family for 13 years and very well pampered. I may change my mind like @popo8, but i want to see if someone else wants to become the caretaker of this car.

Im confused... So you only had that car because you felt obligated to keep it because of someone else?

I bought the car because I wanted it and he and i were very close. I have kind of kept it partly due to our friendship and partly because I loved the car. Now he has decided to not take the advice I gave him many times upon his request and to get tied up with a woman. She apparently does not understand our friendship and now he is making up lies as to why he will not talk with me or my family. We are still friends with his sister and she is very upset with the situations.

well I dont want to butcher the thread with questions, but thats no reason to unload the car. Friends come and go brotha... dont let it change stuff in your life. I was always under the impression that this car was something you were fond of because of the car itself...

Not butchering, it is good to have this conversation. I really do love the car, but I am really wanting to get back into a full sized 60s chevy.

Ok man... well I guess if your heart is not in it anymore... GLWS.

Tomorrow I attempt to get the camaro tagged. After firing it up and moving the car, I think I am going to keep her for a little while longer.
