shit bud......sorry

my deepest regards

 

[SaturdaysGS]

Damn, sorry to hear about that. What are you going to do now? sell the body, minus an engine?

 

[Royalgtp]

What is your next car then?

just buy a used 67 and ride it stock, or, sell it and get a new one.

either way, you wont get shit for it if no one can drive it.

 

[nitrous]

I'd buy the rolling chassis for $500.

 

[syP]

that is the plan.... someone on this board will buy the rolling chassis... i will put it up FS once i get everything setllted

 

[sr71_rgl]

Good god you broke that thing good. Man tht sux...you should be able to get more than $500 for the roller. You could pick up a complete/used long block for a little over a grand and then sell it. It looks like you have all your vavles....did that piston jst dissentegrate from KR?

 

[syP]

looks like it smacked up against the bottom of the head.

 

[2000gtp]

what causes your exhaust valve to be white like in the picture from syp's car below ? lean? or head gasket leak?

[sr71_rgl]

I think that's pretty common on the L67 motors. Being we run roots blowers and no IC the exhaust valves get pretty damn hot which is what causes the white dust on them.

 

[GTs_Se_GP_FAMILY]

Owwie...

 

[beyerch]

'tis but a flesh wound......

l67 long block ~800 w/ miles on it.

Get one and put it in and then don't mess with it.

Exactly. You want a reliable car thats less than 1K. Thats all youve been saying on clubgp. Keep your tranny, get a stock L67 and be done with it. The 3800 is a workhorse and will last as long as you treat it well. The money you said you got just from selling mods can buy your engine. Like I told you over IM. I dont have money for another car so if my engine blows, just gonna swap it and be done. You have the upper hand with a built HD tranny.

JMO.

 

[2KREDGHOST]

Sorry to hear that homie. Hope you get everything together and the GP gets back on the road.

[Royalgtp]

just swap a new motor in likethey say.

Save some money and when you graduate get another car and mod the hell out of it.

 

[nitrous]

My offer for the chassis stands. I can come pick it up.

 

[Kyle]

would the trans be included with the chasis?

 

[nitrous]

I don't think he's that generous I wouldn't mind it though, LOL

 

[GTPPWR]

the chassis/tranny are spoken for.

thanks though.

 

[Fish]

Or spend more money on a car than an engine. Thats cool.

 

[Mike K]

Eh, sometimes you just got to step back and do something different. I can say that if money is tight avoid the SHO. The GTP will be leaps and bounds more reliable and what you'll be missing in "soul" you'll more than make up for in money left in the wallet!

 

[xttc2000]

just put another motor in it, sell all your mods. have a SHOP rebuild it, install it, and waranty it. you'll probobly be close to paying for the whole job just by selling your mods.
then if you decide you dont want the car anymore, you'll get a decent buck for it since it will have a new motor- with a waranty, and you still have your new trans- with a waranty.

 

[GTPPWR]

I agree with xttc2000 on this one.

 

[Royalgtp]

Not sure why you would sell this car.

You put in a new trans and soon to be engine.....

The body of yoru car and everthign else is great.


You will lose a ton of money selling the body and buying another car.


Drop a new engine and forget about it.
