i know that but it wont be a real SS if i used a aftermarket body :/

It won't be a real SS if it get's crushed either.

They want 12500 to buy back which is ridiculous. No one could make money with it at that price

they came and took the car away

my dad isn't going to be driving for a while most likely. he said he'd just give me his z28. i'll probably sell my cobalt and drive it around. it needs a couple things but nothing crazy

been a while but my dad finally felt like buying another car.

we looked at a 1970 chevelle ss454 "ls5" wanted 67k for it... car looked great but had lots of little problems and some big ones they didn't care to mention. tranny wouldn't go into reverse without grinding and i drove it and it was gutless as fuck... i asked the guy and he said the 454 was out of a 76 truck... really? the car came w/ ls5 454 but doesn't have it now, and they tried to pass it off without saying anything... idiots.

looked at a 67 chevelle and it had a great 396 motor and 5spd trans but the paint was 5/10 with tons of chips and bubbles in roof/trunk and messed up body lines big gaps etc... wanted 55k wouldn't go down in price 

he finally bought a 70 ss396 chevelle w/ 4spd for 50k from a museum and had it shipped.

car is pretty good but not like they said.. has some small problems and doesn't look at as good as it did in the pictures... has rear main seal leak, had a bunch of vacuum leaks, messed up choke on carb, some misc things inside that aren't working right but not bad. paid 50k and 2k to ship. we fixed a lot of the stuff already and it runs pretty good now.

this one is insured for 75k

worked on the car a little bit has some bad oil leaks, was leaking really bad out of the back of intake. did intake gaskets, has a reman quadrajet carb on it. runs really well WOT, part throttle sucks. needs tuning. its too lean.

has oil leak out of the oil pressure sender, leaks onto the headers. pretty annoying. the flapper door on the cowl induction doesnt work anymore. ordered a new one.

sure gets a lot of attention
