Hey so my neighbor used to own a 3rd gen Camaro years ago. His daily is an F150 and he wants a smaller car to run around in and thinks it'd be cool to get another 3rd gen.
So, that being said, an recommendations on what he should look for? Thanks guys. |

'89+ got PBR rear discs similar to the LT1 cars. The iron calipers before that had issues.
Personally, I'd only look at hard top cars to minimize the amount of "Damn it, it's raining and I'm getting wet again". I kept thinking about getting a 3rd gen summer daily but then I sat in the 4th gen I'm parting out for a while and it's a whole bunch of "NOPE". After driving trucks/SUVs around for the better part of a decade, I've gotten more used to an upright seating position and not feeling like my knees are in my chest (I'm 6'3"). Just sitting in the 4th gen for 15 minutes started aggravating my hips. I'd have to do a custom seat/mount. F-that. |
