The perfect winter beater/3.4 swap car can be yours!!!
Thursday, October 21, 2010 12:42 PM
So i'm selling my car since i bought a truck,i don't need two cars taking space up at my parents house.I don't really need to sell it but i'd rather see someone use it and get it out of my yard.

It's a 97 sunfire,2.2,5speed,no power options with a z24 swapped front.It was primered white months ago,but it's started to flake off in some spots.I was going to get it painted by a member here on the org,but i didn't want to dump money into it.I was going to drive it till it dies but i got a new job so i bought a truck.


Mods...if you could call them that,\
Has an intake that me and my buddy kinda through together.I have the stock airbox but the hose fell apart where it connects to the throttle body
2.25 inch catback.It was fabbed up by the local exhaust shop.sounds great if you like an open exhuast.I have fart cannon if you want it.I was gonna get a super turbo muffler for cheap at autozone,but i never did.
Has a knockoff ebay short shifter.
3 pillar gauge pod with vacuum,oil pressure and water temp.the oil and vacuum are functional and the water temp is hooked up to light up.I have them wired to a switch to turn them on.

The bad.....

186k miles on it.
the 3rd and 4th gear syncros are pretty much gone.If shift slowly and let the rpm's fall down the shifts are okay.
it needs an inspection(runs out at the end of this month)
no muffler(i have a POS rice muffler)
needs the front end painted.
The tires on the front could be replaced.
nice sized dent in the passenger side.
mirror is cracked
no radio
some rust on the bottom of the doors
rides like a skateboard
it's a jbody.


The good...

it starts up everyday and gets me to work
new alternator,battery was replaced not to long ago,clutch was done about 20k ago.
its cheap.


The car is by no mean perfect,it looks like hell and it's loud and the ride is rough.It starts up and runs,gets me where i need to go.

If you need a classy show car thats fast and want to impress the ladies...this is not it,but if you need something that you can drive to work,the store whatever and not worry about some awipe dinging your doors...THIS is it.I'm looking to get around 800 bucks OBO...

NO i won't take 200 bucks.I can take it to JY and get 300 if it's running.If don't get a decent offer i'll strip it to the point where it's just able to run and take it to the JY.

Don't ask me about a part out in this thread...it's against the forum rules....

If you want picture or more info...please PM me.I can email or TXT pictures no problem.

LOL. I'm calling BS, but I shall not further thread jack. If you'd like to prove me, and everyone else you said "f%*k you" to about the truck wrong, how about you post some recent pics of it in your old thread.
