Default WTT 67 Camaro for C5 Z06

Looking for 2002+ Z06...

This was originally a 327 V8 Camaro, Marina Blue with deluxe interior. I bought this Camaro off eBay in 2006. It had just gone through a frame on restoration. I have done extensive modifications to this car and it runs 1000% better than when I bought it. This Camaro handles much better than stock and is much faster. Please take a look at the modifications made below.



Exterior Modifications:
White with Hugger Orange SS stripes.
SS trim package

Interior Modifications:
Colvan's carbon fiber dash with Autometer Ultralite gauges
B&M Quick Silver ratchet shifter
Summit racing seats
Grant steering wheel
Ididit tilt steering column
H4 Headlight conversion

Performance:
375HP 350ci Crate Motor built by Phoenix Engines.
750 cfm Edelbrock performer carb
Edelbrock high flow fuel pump: 120 GPH
Flow Tech ceramic coated headers
Billet Specialties serpentine conversion kit
Mallory HEI
MSD 6AL and Timing Control
2.5" exhaust with Flowmasters
125HP shot NOS


Suspension/Chassis:

Competition Engineering bolt-in sub-frame connectors.
Front: QA1 coil-over, adjustable shocks, Hotchkis Sway Bar, Energy Suspensions Polyurethane bushings, Wilwood four-piston calipers with drilled and slotted rotors, and Wilwood tandem master cylinder. Quick-ratio PS box with chrome PS pump and Billet Specialties PS Pulley.

Rear: Hotchkis multileaf springs, Koni adjustable shocks and Competition Engineering Traction Bars.

Wheels:
Back: 18X9.5 Centerline Lazer II with Nitto 555Rs 285/35R18 100% tread left!
Front: 18X8 Centerline Lazer II with Nitto 555s 235/40R18 100% tread left!

Drivetrain:
Extreme Automatics TH400 built for 1000+ HP!

Reverse Manual Valve Body

Griner G-10 Pro Transbrake: Billet Valve Body
3400 Stall 10" with anti-ballooning plates good for NOS and 900+ HP
Richmond 3.73 ring and pinion (8.2")
Eaton Posi (8.2")
Summit aluminum cover



Chassis has about 85K miles, engine has 2600 miles, transmission has 300 miles.



Only issues I can think of:

· Interior was redone in 2006, but headliner is starting to separate in driver front and passenger side back. Will need to be fixed, not replaced.

· Small oil leak from oil sending unit, only when car is running, about a drop per minute.

· No A/C or heat. This was an original A/C car, but the A/C was removed and a fiberglass plate was installed over the original A/C opening.

· Fiberglass rear speaker deck needs refinishing.

· Driver Seat is separating at the shoulder holes.

· Fuel gauge does not work. Sending unit is fine and gauge is new. Needs new wire to sending unit.

· These are ALL that I can think of. The car runs STRONG!



I have used the NOS in the following situations:



2 times for dyno tune: 390 RWHP 410 ft-lbs torque. Mustang Dyno.

2 times at the track: 1st time shut down at half track, second time 12.44@113.

2 times on street from a 30 roll.

Nice looking car I usualy dont like new wheel tire combos on old muscle cars but this set really does improve the cars looks nice job with it!1 Good luck with the trade, you really should put a value though so people know what your looking to get even if its a trade.

Sorry...I bought the car for $18K about 5 years ago. I've put about $20K in it so far. I would put the market value, for trade, around $25K-$27K and would consider cash offers between $20K and $25K. As we all know, the market for cars sucks right now, this is why I am considering a trade.

As for why I want to trade, I care more for performance than investment value and the Z06 is closer to where I want to be, performance wise, than the Camaro.

NOS kit was removed. Going on eBay this weekend. There is a great tax break for trades, but will consider all cash offers.
