FS: 94 Camaro Z28 - 6 spd - NorCal - SOLD - F-Body Road Racing and Autocross Forums

-->Traded it for a Yamaha R6

Looking to sell my black Z28 coupe. I'm the second owner, it's got a lot of new stuff, it gets great gas mileage, and is fun as hell. It is currently in great running condition, suitable for daily driving, with most of the interior parts removed. I have a company car and gas card for daily use, so the plan was to turn this into a track car, but I found a different already-built car locally that I want. This car has never been on a track though, nor a drag-strip. It's only been Autocrossed twice.

I bought the car in August 2006 from the first owner in Virginia bone stock. Registered and kept the car in Wisconsin for 3 months, then drove it to California, where it passed the emissions tests with flying colors. I think the mileage was around 143,000 when I bought it 2+ years ago, and it has 149,500 on it now. Have receipts with mileage/dates of 146,658/3-27-07 and 148,763/8-10-08.

I'm listing it on a few other Camaro/AutoX forums first, then Craigslist and so on. Email me at valeracing at gmail dot com or call me. -Chris

Pros:

Only 2 owners
New tires Hankook Ventus RS2's with less than 1,000 miles on stock wheels [paid $670 5/08].
New upgraded MSD opti-spark cap and rotor
-The Opti on the car now is new, and is the upgraded vented design that should last a long time.
New GM water pump [has stainless steel nipples unlike cheap Autozone water pump]
New upper/lower radiator hoses
Pretty new Optima red-top battery [paid $170 11/06, still under 36 month full replacement warranty]
New fluids, all Redline full synthetic [oil/power steering/transmission/differential]
New ATE slotted front rotors with Hawk HP+ pads on front and back
New rear bump stops
New tie-rod ends
New 160 degree thermostat
New fuel filter

Cons:

Nuisance oil leak
The check valve in the fuel pump is bad, so it takes a few cranks to start. I have two working used fuel pumps (the one in the car is a 2 year old Autozone one that I put in even though it didn't need it) and there is an access hatch already cut out to get to the fuel pump, I just haven't had time to put the original one back in.
Drivers side mirror is broken, has a usable temporary mirror stuck in place.
Front lower control arm bushings are worn, and should be replaced at some point. There is no play [the hubs are good], and there is no way to notice from inside the car, but they are worn. I found out when I went to get the car aligned.
Cosmetic damage from break-in. Drivers side door lock is missing, there is a chunk of paint missing from the passenger side door, and the rear latch lock is chewed up. I included pics below.
Little interior problems. The seat is worn on the side from the seatbelt, but has been patched with fabric glue. The glove box latch is broken, the center console lid has a broken hinge (but it still sits flush and in place), and the window control for the drivers side door is glued in. This stuff does not effect the drivability of the car at all, and I don't even notice it.
Random scratches and scuff marks. Looks great for its' age though. A 3am infomercial product could probably get rid of the scratches, a claybar-polish-wax treatment got rid of them for a bit but they returned.
Gas gauge reads about 1/4 tank too high, I found out about this the hard way. Only once though.
Low coolant sensor goes off every few months, even though the coolant level is fine. I looked it up, and I guess that's a common problem with this car.
Never put any speed-bleeders in, haha (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif)

Bonus:
New K&N air filter in the stock airbox.
GM 1LE new intake elbow [GM part from the police package].
New ATE super blue DOT 4 brake fluid.
Throttle body coolant bypass.
Interior panels and carpet rear of the front seats are removed. If you want to carry around the kids and a dog, I have the full interior and all the fasteners, and will put it all back together for $100/hour. It would definitely need a new headliner though.

Ton of pics that I snapped on Sunday:

I have Bonus Check in March, so if this car is still available I'll take it. To All, If this one is gone, which it should be, if there is a decent F-Bod Available for dd and TD in March for $ 3k- $ 4K that I can drive back to WI, let me know.

Not sure if it'll still be for sale come March, but it'll be around for at least another week! I didn't have any time this weekend to put the interior back in, but once I do, it's going on Craigslist. I'm kinda surprised nobody snatched it up yet, but that just shows how off the market is right now!
