Its not the original engine though. I think the previous owner said the motor was replaced at 130K. But who knows how many miles were on the JY motor? So it could be close to 300K
How much would a new bumper/ground effects be?

Snag those before my crazy mind makes me think I need them(they are the right color for my car).

Looks like its a nice deal, but I don't have 350 for something I don't need right now. Thanks though

A new door handle is a super easy fix and not expensive. That's the passenger yeah? I might have that.

Can't really... Only way to check/test stuff in the trans is by pulling it out and verifying... Especially when its a mechanical part that may be sticking.

Welcome to the site. Your user-name caught my attention -I was on J-Body.org for a while (they just don't have the same feeling of community as they do here) under the name 'Bondo, James Bondo'. :P My '97 turbo Z-24 was issued the license-plate number '007', and being a j-body with minor body-damage, it all fell together perfectly! :wink:

Where are you located? I had a '95 Z-26 that I can still get to, and the tranny is fine (if not actually perfect), and has ~130k miles on it (I think). If you were interested (and close enough), I will be transplanting a 5-speed into the car if I take it back, so the 4T60E will be for sale...

Your 3500 Cavy will be welcome here too, if you want to share the build with us.

Yeah, too far to be worth it for you anyway. Good luck on the car though, it looks pretty decent to me. :good:
