Due to some unforeseen circumstances, a deterioration in my current business, and a new opportunity I am working on, I am putting my 68 Camaro up for sale. It is currently about 80-85% complete and being worked on daily at Gearhead Garage in Sacramento, CA. This is the same shop that built Mike Bassi's awesome 67 Camaro that was a Lateral-G Feature of the Month.

I know we're in a tough market, but I am looking for $55k as it sits now. As most of you know, this is less than the cost of the parts and the car before adding in labor.

This is a moving price as parts and labor costs are being incurred weekly. There is roughly $15-20k left to finish the car the way I planned on doing it, but it could be done for $10-12k if need be and still be fantastic. A buyer now gets to decide on all of the final fitment, design, and trim decisions. Otherwise, I finish it and sell it completed in 2-3 months.

I am located in San Francisco and car is in Sacramento.

Please email dwgordon at gmail dot com with questions, offers, or to get my phone number.

Thanks for looking.

 

Nice project...why are you selling, and what are the final projected hp numbers w/ the Procharger?

 

Combination of things. Deteriorating cash flow of my current biz and needing more money for a new deal I am trying to close soon. If 1 of 2 people who owe me substantial money would pay me back soon, I should be able to keep this, but I don't want to get backed into a corner in a couple months....

This motor has under 1000 miles on it and was in a nearly identical 69 Camaro before I bought it. It did not have an intercooler (water injection only) and made just over 700 rwhp with 14 lbs of boost on a Dynapack.

My biggest mistake (not really) was getting into the 996TT while waiting for this car to be finished!

 

 

So what is missing? parts? or just time (labor)?

 

Most parts are there, at least the major stuff. The only major parts left to be purchased are things like intercooler tubing, 3" exhaust tubing (already have Spintech mufflers), the grille, and a bunch of misc stuff.

So yes it is mostly labor left. The car should be done in 30-45 days.

You interested?

 

questions for you???
please check your PM

thanks,

 

Sent you a PM back.
