FS 96 z28 6-speed rebuilt trans, rockers, LS1 brakes, delteq. etc. lots of mods

96 z28 Metallic Blue/Black hard top
113k miles

NO POWER OPTIONS, NO POWER WINDOWS/SEATS; BETTER POWER/WEIGHT RATIO

here are the mods:

-SLP midlength 1.3/4" primary/3" collector exhaust headers
-Magnaflow catback 3"
-LS1 front brake upgrade/new brake pads/rotors
-Delteq opti-direct ignition with cadillac northstar v8 coils (WORKS GREAT)
-Crane Gold 1.6 full roller rockers non self-aligning
-comp 941 valve springs
-comp hardened pushrods
-GM guideplates
-BMR subframe connectors
-Recently rebuilt transmission with mildly upgraded clutch (SLP equiv. i think)
-tuning by Madz28.com
-160* thermostat (with corresponding tuning)
-Moroso Cold Air Intake (modified to be not so damned annoying)
-Trickflow powdercoated black intake elbow
-LS1 center console
-Kenwood MP3 player head unit with Polk Audio speakers
-rear o2 sims

parts replaced recently and other misc items/details:
-new optispark (vented of course, the old one's sensor went out)
-new MAF
-new o2 sensors available (haven't put them in yet)
-replaced oil every 3k with Mobile 1 full synthetic
-new serpentine belt less than 500 miles ago
-new brake master cylinder less than 1000 miles ago (along with the LS1 brake upgrade, i did it as a precaution more than anything)
-new PCV valve 2 weeks ago
-Great oil pressure

this car has been well taken care of and (atleast around here) a VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY rare color!! body is in good condition, needs a few minor things (doesn't every car?)

I REALLY don't like talking about this, but I'm selling it because I was just involved in a home invasion. I was beaten badly, had a gun held to my head, robbed, blindfolded, my apartment ransacked, kidnapped and had a LOT of money stolen from me (over $1,000). I didn't do anything to provoke the attack so it caught me completely by surprise. I have a lot of trouble sleeping at night so I've got a lot of mental issues to deal with. I'm starting my life over right now so I need to pay bills and stay afloat, these guys REALLY messed my life up (there's a lot of gang activity around where i used to live) ... I'm in a real bind and i just need to get this car sold so if there's anything you guys can do to help, PLEASE... This doesn't mean feel sorry for me, donate or anything like that, you don't have to do any of that but just do realize that i do need help, the police haven't been able to find anything on these guys and there's NO chance that i can get that money back... i'm having to relocate and buy a more economical car so there's a LOT of cost involved... i'm in a lot of trouble right now financially (i wasn't before). For those of you in the military or have stared death in the face, i know exactly what you've been through - it ALMOST happened to me and I have great respect for you.


Anyway, I'd *like* atleast $7500 for the car .... IMO this is a great deal considering all of the mods (especially delteq, rockers, headers etc.) this car will at very least keep pace with many LS1's if not outrun them! It doesn't pass Atlanta area emissions right now because the o2 sensors went out (hence why i have new Delphi o2 sensors not yet installed) so those will have to be replaced and it does have a small exhaust leak and needs some paint on the front bumper and spidering on the back bumper. I don't want to sell it, i LOVE this car but i really have no choice !! please help!

I'm in the process of taking some aspects of the car back to stock (i want to keep my wheels, swaybars, shock tower brace and pro 5.0 shifter) because I do plan on getting another (probably LT1) f-body sometime in the distant future. I'll just leave these items in storage for the time being.

I can also take trades + cash for economy type cars if anyone has one available... I was looking at getting a mid-90's Ford Escort (cheap and reliable)

thanks and sorry for the long post...
