  • 01 V6 5Spd - Many Mods

    Well I hate to do it but I'm going to officially test the waters on selling the car. I am not hurting to sell it, so I won't take any low ball offers. With that being said I'm setting the price at $5500. I won’t say that price is firm, however like I said, I'm in no rush to sell it. I also don't want to part anything out, so its all or nothing.

    Specs-
    -2001 3.8 M5 Camaro
    -101k miles (and counting, as this is my daily driver)
    -New Jasper Engines Motor installed less than 15k miles ago.
    -With new motor new Abbott NA Cam with comp 105# springs, moded steel retainers, and comp 7.00' hardened pushrods installed.
    -New 410 gears with torsen diff installed at same time as new motor.
    -New clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder installed with new motor.
    -Car gets 20mpg daily driving and 25mpg cruising at 75mph+ on the highway (if you can handle the rpms lol)

    Here is a more detailed list of all mods.

    The Cars History
    If you want details I can give as much or as little as you want, don’t be afraid to ask.
    Known Issues-
    Mechanical/Electrical-
    -Rear end is making some noise. Shop tells me it seems there is some play in the pinion gear. This was installed along with the new motor, and only recently devolved the noise.
    -Seems to burn some oil between changes. It’s done this from the start and causes no
    issues. I just watch it. I think some of this may be an oil pan leak as well.
    -The driver’s side door sags a little. I believe this is causing the switch that tells the interior lights to cut off not to read right. I currently have the interior lights pulled out, but this should be an easy fix.
    Exterior/Interior
    -Though most of this car has had some repaint, it’s not in show condition at all. With that being said, it does shine up pretty well. With some paint correction it could really stand out (removing some swirls and imperfections in the paint). The hood was the most recently done and is in good shape, though it does have some imperfections as well. The rest of the car has the chips and scratches you would usually expect. I can literally point out every little thing, so don’t be afraid to ask for details.
    -The driver’s side seat has a rip down the side of the side bolster. I have temporarily repaired this with some strong thread, but it will need some more attention later. I had hoped to have these recovered, so it wasn’t big on my to-do list. The passenger side seat has a twist in the back piece. I pulled these from a wrecked car, and the way the car was hit kind of tweaked the seat. I was going to have this straightened out when it was recovered as well.

    I’m sure there’s stuff I'm missing, so please ask anything you like.



    Here are some of the newest pictures I have. Some of the changes aren’t even in these, and I plan to get more here soon. If you have any requests I will gladly get what you need. If anyone has some pictures of mine from G15, I would love to have them to post. Don’t know why I didn’t get some. Off the top of my head, missing in those pictures are the new projectors and tail lights, but maybe more.

                      I have always enjoyed seeing picture's of your car, she is absolutely gorgeous. But why are you thinking of selling? If you don't mind me asking.

                        Its really a combination of a couple of things. I use this car as my dd, and lately I have been wanting something a little more comfortable for my daily driving (as well as bigger, thinking suv/truck). I will own another fbody, but it will be a toy only so i dont have to worry about dd issues with it. For me to pick up a new dd like i want, i really to need to get rid of this one. I think im just ready for something different really. This is the longest I have kept a single car (been 5 or 6 years now), and am ready to try something new for a while.

                        Thanks for the compliments though, everyone knows how much the car means to me. I know a tear will be shed when it drives off.

                            Wanted to give this a bump with an update. I have a local buyer that seems really interested and i told him i would take 4500. I would honestly rather see it go to someone around the v6 community, and i would rather not have to see it driving around town. I will extend the same offer here if any wants it. I will also be taking it to the shop today to officially have the rear end diagnosed. Depending on what it is i will either have it fixed or at least be able to tell the next owner exactly what the issue is.
