Leather interior, its the tan carpets/seats with the tan/black door panels. Auto /sadface but i can get over that. 88.7k miles on it. It's got a Volant cold air kit, edelbrock shorty headers and magnaflow catback. |
Very nice, looks great congrats. :nod:

Mine came with whats in my sig.. those are probably the most common and simple.. which you already have lol PROBLEMS SO FAR: -power steering was whining when i got mine... -water pump went on my at like 75k maybe... -starter went at about 100k. (im at 105k)... -hydraulics in the clutch went at about 80-85k and was upgraded to LS7 eveyrthing else was maintenance. |
Holy 4x4 stance lol
Good luck with her, looks really clean. |
believe it or not the car doesnt really sit that high, in all the pics it looks like it does though, although one of the first things i do will be to lower it !
|
Depending on how you drive it certain things you will want to change.
If you drive it hard a pcv oil catch can, good brakes, good tires and upgraded clutch master cylinder. |
drive it easy otherwise your rear diff will tell you otherwise.
|
I beat mine like a red headed step child and its still going strong
|
Nice, what did you scoop it up for and where?
|
nice find! good luck with her, love RED!

@OP, get a Stall + Long tubes + Suspension I'm a fan of suspension Common problems from my two F-bods + 1 Water Pump + 1 Alternator (maybe working on two at the moment) + 1 Power steering pump noises... + 1 Clutch master (don't have to worry about it) |
Congratulations on the great find. Good Luck.
|
ive done water pumps on both LS1's ive had, in the 60-80k miles range, but its super easy
|
Missed that saw someone else mention clutch.
Forgot about the water pump. |
I like it. How's the maintenance records? A fuel filter, pcv and plugs and wires might make a nice difference in how she runs. As far as mods generally lids are the first upgrade, throttle bodies are cheap as well, lcas and phb are a good start towards suspension.
|
i got it in williamstown, paid $7500. I don't have the records yet the guy is seeing what he has. he's in the process of moving and all that so im sure everythings a mess. but the car was well taken care off, theres 2 small dings, one on each 1/4 but im other than that no complaints.
|
Problems? window motors

looks great doe ! |
Good luck, love the color combo with the tan interior and the chrome wheels. Just a piece of advice, lowered cars look great, but every speed bump or dip in the road will make you cringe!
|
Congrats! Looks like it beads up pretty well!
