86 vette 350 bone stock. Realy good condition. $2500

Very fun to drive and easy to make fast.

Re: New Project?
 

I would say yes.

Re: New Project?
 

Nay. Just not a car that interests me. If it were a C5 or newer I'd think differently :)

Re: New Project?
 

You coud throw some turbo's on there and really suprise some people.

Re: New Project?
 

Or a sweet nitrous kit and maybe you can roll with 16G cars. :cheer:
:ring:

Re: New Project?
 

I was thinkin LS1. O well I have until spring to decide.

Re: New Project?
 

^I told you that. You said that you wanted to keep that motor in there.

Re: New Project?
 

Paint it hot pink and drive around with a blonde wig on and youll fulfil your childhood dream of being Barbie.

Re: New Project?
 

knock this off

Re: New Project?
 

for 2500 bucks I would

Re: New Project?
 

Hell yes, that would be awesome. Definitely new rims though.

Re: New Project?
 

Yeah then I found that they aren't that expensive and they bolt to the stock trans. I still can't locate the wiring adapter. I know they make them.


I agree completely

Re: New Project?
 

LS1 Twin Turbo. It could be fun.

Re: New Project?
 

Auto or manual?

Re: New Project?
 

Good deal.

Re: New Project?
 

I'd definitely say yes.

If I'd seen something like that at that price this past spring, I sure as hell wouldn't be on Style right now.

Re: New Project?
 

For that price sure would be a fun toy.

Re: New Project?
 

That is cheap. I've had a bunch of 84-87 Vettes and even have a 1991 right now. Build quality is junk of course, but it's a very cool car for that price and with some mods can be a lot of fun. I would just slap some turbos on the current motor, no need to reinvent the wheel.

Re: New Project?
 

I'm wanting to do this, already I have alot of plans bouncing throughmy head. I won't stop until its something like this. :D

Re: New Project?
 

That is what I was thinking. I was looking at getting a c5 but then found the deal on my viper. I would much rather have the viper than a vette. Didn't think the viper was in my price range until I started looking around.

Re: New Project?
 

I like the C5 and it is what I want but this is a good deal. PLus they have body parts that'll make it look almost like a C5. Then again theres 1000 more bucks I can put into the motor.

Re: New Project?
 

Looking around, it does look like there are some body accessories that you could buy that actually make them look nice which is cool because stock I think they look so plain and bleh.

Re: New Project?
 

It depends on what your goals are for the car and how long you are looking to keep it.

Personally, I wouldn't do anything to the body unless you plan on keeping it for a long time. IMO, you probably won't be able to get out what you threw into it.

Not sure your age but in a few years, you will hopefully be making more money and will be able to afford the C5 that you want. That was my goal and as soon as I left college, I bought the viper.

Good luck with the car. A pair of turbos would be cool. I was looking at a twin turbo mustang a couple of years ago. Not sure where I would be now (what I would be driving) if I bought that....

Re: New Project?
 

I will not touch the body. I just thought some of the kits looked nice which most of the time isn't the case. It will be a fun project I think if I'm still interested in the spring. I won't be picking it up until then. I just finished getting it ready for storage and personally have no place to put it. So I'll finish the DSM this winter and deal with the vette in the spring. I can't wait.

Re: New Project?
 

For that price, why not.

Re: New Project?
 

Vipers are surprisingly cheap, my friend had an '05 for 42k and it only had 38k miles on it, thing was clean.

Another cool thing is the owners think they are hot. :beach:

Re: New Project?
 

I own a Laser and I am HOT.

I'm not sure about this vette thing. I think it may have been impulse cause it was in my garage. Why not spend the money on the DSM? If anybody else wants this thing the owner is asking $4500 which for its condtion is still a great deal.

I think I'll turn this to other cars that are sweet for cheap.

Like LS1 260Z's and turbo cyclones (rode in one today INSANE)

I'm rambling I'll quit now.

Re: New Project?
 

turbo cyclone with LSx and AWD.

You might be hot but my girl friend doesn't look at you or guys in sweet vipers.

Re: New Project?
 

V-6 turbo sweet little truck

Re: New Project?
 

No, V8 turbo sweet little truck.

Re: New Project?
 

Why would you post the car for 2500 and another post 4500? if that is the case, you could make an easy grand off 2500 bucks.

Re: New Project?
 

It's a family friend who would have sold me the car for $2500. It's been for sale for $4500.
