Joined sometime last year, was running a mildly built 468 big block in an 87 iroc and had nothing but problems with it.
I'm 21 in under a month from Sussex County.
Spent years browsing craigslist for a toy, never wanted to spend the money on anything. After a few years of 55+ hour work weeks I can justify buying myself something.
Saturday night a car was posted on craigslist down in south jersey and I felt it would make a good early birthday present to myself. Sunday, a buddy and I went to look at it... left a deposit, switched the title to my name and tomorrow afternoon I travel back down to the shore to pick it up.
1995 Firebird Formula, 133k (paperwork for a clutch being changed around 8 months ago and the block was punched .030"). Bone stock for the exception of the machine work and CAI/full exhaust. Gave it a very good look over, makes great compression and doesn't leak a drop of oil. The paint isn't the greatest (faded in spots) but I was able to work the guy down to $3,300. Brakes are pretty shot and it feels like it can use a tune up.
Already bought pads and rotors for it
I have a truck to finish building but in a few weeks I'll be sending the car to Maaco for a cheap re-spray and then I want to order a LT4 HC kit, regear and possibly hit it with a 100 shot. Hopefully I can send it into the upper 11's.
