Well… My Problem is my Fiancée got a job… which means more money, BUT I had to lend her my Civic. So I have been driving this BEAST back and forth to work. I just put 80$ in to drive it for 2 weeks. It gets about 13-14Mpgs. AND guess who still puts gas in the Civic… Me :roll:

Still just a project car.

Its Got a fairly fresh paint job, Some minor imperfections. and its cracking near the rear wing, since the wing was NOT removed before painting.

I never checked numbers, and dont have MUCH paper work on it. BUT its supposedly:  
1967 Camaro 327ci block  
Comp Cams 440 lift street performer cam  
Edlebrock Intake Performer RPM manifold  
Holley Street Avenger 670cfm Carb  
MSD 6A ignition system  
Built TH350 Transmission with Hurst ratchet shifter  
Clutch type LSD with 3.73 gears  
American Torque Thrust wheels all around, 15x8 up front 15x12 in rear 235/65 and 295/50  
Fiberglass hood  
T/A Frame rail braces  
T/A Differential pan

Things I did :  
Patched floor pans, where needed  
Painted whole floor with gloss white after sealing holes.  
Installed new Carpet  
Installed new SPORT reclining seats  
Replaced hinges, door stops, and Latches  
Installed new front seatbelts

Things comes with that it needs done:  
NEW window regulators  
NEW 8 spare Spark Plugs

What else it kinda needs: (very optional)  
Door seals? - cracking slightly  
T-top seals? - cracking slightly  
Heater Blower? - missing light weight reduction  
Heater Core? - Not hooked up no worries  
Windshield Sprayers? - Gotta get out and scrub it clean  
Quieter Mufflers? - Its LOUD. People Stare. And I feel bad driving after 9pm… has 3inch Series 40s  
Radio? - I jam to the engine  
Speedometer? - All I have is Oil Psi and Coolant Temp-- The factory dash is in the trunk and states 39k miles.

I would consider trades for a DECENT car. **Subaru, Bmw, Benz, Audi, Volvo, or Saab** But pretty much just looking for money to buy what I want.  
NO I DONT WANT TRUCKS, GUNS, BIKES, 4WHEELERS… Etc…

I’ll post pics later today. Need to take some updated ones…

I think I’d like to get 4,000$ but the sooner i get rid of it the less its worth 😉
