Well this is going to be tough, but I am putting my Camaro up for sale. It is the silver one with black stripes listed on this HOMEPAGE. It is my first car, so this is going to be tough.
Here are the specifics:
LS1 with manual 6speed
Engineered front suspension w/ATS spindles
Corvette C-5 disk brakes on all 4 corners
Varishock double adjustable coilovers up front
Adjustable upper tubular control arms
G-Bar triangulated 4-bar in back w/adjustable coilovers
Frame rails graft into floor pan
Custom strut bars connected from frame to firewall
Billet ZE Forged Custom built wheels 19's in front and 20's in back
New interior w/Autometer gauges and etc.
Flat trunk pan with gas tank raised 4 inches (can't see tank from back)
Ford 9" w/ aluminum center section and True Trac posi
Gorgeous silver paint w/black stripes.
There is too much to list.
This car makes great power, averages 21 MPG, and can be autocrossed competetively in street trim.
There is about 1500 miles on it since completion. I am selling because I want a new project and the space. You couldn't possible build a car like this car for this kind of money.
First time out to the shows it was invited to the Invitational Salem Roadster Show. People love this car and it has been on multiple pro-touring forums and MAY be in next month's Popular Hotrodding. It will also be the feature car on Boze's website soon.
If interested give me a call at (360)710-4840 $42,000 obo
I am open to offers, but please do not waste my time or try to low ball me. I don't need to sell this car, I just want a new project and need some space.
Thank You :D

Hey Brett, love the car and you did a great job, I saw it in person at the Tacoma Good Guys. I was the guy asking you about the wheels. Don't take it the wrong way but I think your price is to high for todays market if you going for a quick sale. I been checking out alot of 3rd gens lately and for the 40K I could get a higher quality build. not to say yours is not high just not 40K worth. Just my opinion.

I can respect your opinion, but I think I need to reply. Yeah the market is tough right now and FOOSE or Coddington didn't build it, but it sure does get a lot of attention and is very function. Many people prefer to build all out show cars and trailer them everywhere. I did that and won at both Goodguys we entered our truck in (and 14 other local events). The problem was the it wasn't fun. So for this car, I focused more on simple and functional. I can drive the car anywhere at anytime and enjoy it. Silver is easy to keep clean and buffs out with less effort. It has great body lines and fit. I can take the car to an autocross event and be COMPETIVE in the class I drive in. It was fun beating that C5 Corvette among other cars a couple of weeks ago. This car looks good, makes good power, stops on a dime, and handles awesome. This is not a car that you buy all the coolest parts and brag to your buddies about who's stuff you bought and how much you spent. This is one you can show and drive hard. If that is what some one is looking for, then this is the car for them. If they want to take a car from show to show on a trailer and brag about how shiny and cool the parts are, then your statement would be correct. However, I must note that bought some high end parts too. ATS spindles, Coilovers on all 4 corners, G-bar, C-5 disk brakes, Boze Forged wheels, and etc. The difference is that everything I bought has a purpose and function, instead of just being "billet" or "built by___."
I hope this makes sense.

I can attest to the "cool factor" of this car- i've personally rode shot-gun, killer stance, nice driver and maybe if you let me beat it through the cones i can comment on the performance:unibrow:

Cool car. 40K is more than reasonable. Hope it finds a good home.

I think you can get alot more for your car, you would have to pay a shop well over $60,000 to build that car like you have done, don't let anybody cheap out on that car unless you need to move it fast.

Nope, put it on Ebay and only went to 22K. After that everyone emailed me and I told them my price. Funny how that works. There were about 5 people really interested, but Ray (the new owner) came from Arizona and bought it. I just finished switching it to a split bumper for him. I hope he enjoys it.
