95 Z-28, 6 speed modded, $2800, sold

Selling 95 Camaro Z-28, 6 speed. Car has 120k miles. Color- maroon, located in Saugus, CA

Following mods- stock rebuilt bottom end 20k miles ago, rebuilt mildly ported heads with 3 angle valve job, new EX valve springs (don't remember the number, good to .600 lift) , EX224/230 cam, 1.6 rockers self adjusting rockers, hooker long tubes, hooker midpipe, borla exhaust, electric cutout, KNN cold air kit, boxed lower control arms, adjustable panhard bar, strut tower base, triangular subframe connectors, new rear end from 2001 SS with 3.73 gears, nice chrome valve covers, new radiator, new starter, new clutch, new fuel pump, new battery, new O2 sensors, new z-rated tires, ls1 wheels, replaced fluids on tranny. Reprogrammed PCM by madwolf, has a removable chip installed (cost ~$150 if you don’t know the Ian ). Engine oil pressure never goes down 40 psi (half mark) on idle; temperature never reaches ¼ mark even in California. T56 transmission is perfect, it might have been rebuilt before I got the car @ 90k miles. Mechanically the car has no problems, and it sounds very mean, not a single oil leak. Right now I have one borla pipe closed with electric cutout and new CAT installed, and you can still hear a nice cam sound. Car gets 16 miles in the city, 22 on hwy.

Interior- decent shape. No tears in carpet/ seats

Problems:
1) No parking brake, after I replaced the rear end, the new one didn't have the parking brake mechanism. All cables are there, easy fix
2) No AC. After the bottom end was replaced, the AC was never charged again. All the components are there though.
3) Car was wrecked 1.5 years ago. It was hit in the driver side front corner. No frame damage, just front left corner damage. I even paid money to get the engine bay square. I put new bumper, new fender, and spray pained them, including the hood. The paint is not perfect; the bumper started chipping a bit. The hood and the left fender has a little gap between them, new hood would fix the gap since the old hood deformed in the accident. The hood is a 2-3” cowl hood made of cheap stuff, it just bended up a bit on the accident.

The car is fast, loud, and cheap. I want $2800 obo (not much), or a four banger (4-cyl) trade accepted, I will add cash if needed. Any bikes welcome, would like to have around the same value as my car on a bike though. Dirt, street, a bit wrecked, 250-1000cc bike are O.K, no cruisers. The car is missing some emissions stuff, it may not pass the visual, but it would pass the smog

Reason for selling
1) The camaro car gives me bad image at work. I drive my bike to work all the time in full gear, and I love it. It takes my roommate 35 minutes to get to work, and me- 14 minutes. We work a mile apart
2) I have no more love for cars- I own two 10 second rockets (motorcycles), and I put 25k miles on them in the last 7 months. There is nothing comparable in my life so far (besides good sex) in driving a motorcycle in the California Canyon roads, and I could write about my experiences for hours…
3) Since I don’t “do” cars anymore, any four banger will work to get me the groceries, and I will save gas money…

First, I need to get a hold of a camera, and then I will have a couple of pictures for you in the middle of the week.

you are on the top man Getting lots of local calls though, lots of "hey man I got $2K cash," and I am like "I make $64k a year and pay $500 for room, everything I have is paid of, no loans " . Gonna try snapping my work digital camera for one evening, hopefully nobody will notice

she is gone. All it took the buyer was just to go sideways in the second and I had the money...
