Yeah, he has the title..

I have a 95 Camaro I use as my daily car. Picked it up from the lady across the street for $1000. Had a few other cars before this but this is my first "real" car. I am not sure if I could really break down and sell it though.

Keep the Camaro!
 
Trey, to be honest I think you would be crazy to sell the camaro! You got it for a great deal and it is an awesome daily driver. Selling that just to buy and barely get started on the black car doesn't make since. If you have 2k laying around I would buy the black car...but understand that it needs a ton to restore it.

I say keep the camaro, buy the black car, and off all the other project cars you have for funds and build the black car to what ever level you have in mind. That way you have a nice DD and hot rod in the end. That would be a dream come true...especially for a younger guy! :thumbsup:

how much you want to sell the camaro for

TreySmith 03-14-2009 04:47 PM

Around $2000 but it will be a while. Has new tires, water pump, battery, stereo, back hatch hydraulics and a few other small things.

I think I will likely buy an aftermarket subframe and build it up first while I am looking for the right car. I am really looking for an early second gen firebird. I like the nose up to around 77 but I like the quarters of the 70-74.

Here you go.. Car looks like a steal at this price. I am going to Colorado for spring break and would look at this car but I have no way to get it home. Hell I might drive it back. I wish I lived in Denver, sooooo many nice cars in my price range.

Nice find, that is essentially what I want. Have you been to Colorado before? Great place to visit, but you'll see a lot of rusty cars. Have fun on spring break.

TreySmith 03-15-2009 05:08 PM

Yeah, I went last year.. Oh my God it was like heaven compared to Houston. The girls were.... White!! :hail:

But yeah, that car is nice, but I am too committed to the 81. Wish I had it in time to drive it up there. But he is in Colorado and is coming back next Sunday, and I am leaving that Saturday :( I think I am going to have to leave some cash under his door mat so he can hold it another week. It is so stupid that we are the only school district that has spring break the last week of March, it threw everything off. Lol maybe I can meet him when I am driving there and he is driving back.

When would you be ready to sell if you are gonna? Please PM me if you are serious

TreySmith 03-15-2009 07:27 PM

Probably around summer, I will PM you then.

I can't pay for two cars so there is really no point in me keeping it once the T/A gets going, but it is always nice to have two cars. I will keep in touch with you. It is going to suck getting rid of it when the time comes, she has been alot of fun.

It has its issues though, but it will all probably be fixed before I sell it. Like the drivers window works half ass and other little things.
