Sold the Camaro, Bought a 442 **PICS**

[Camaroguy87132]

Well early in may I decided it was time to get rid of the Camaro. I just lost interest in rebuilding it. So I sold it for 900 bucks which was more than I thought I would get and then I was on the hunt for something else :D

Well in late may I was driving around randomly with a friend of mine in southern jersey. We were kinda lost and just taking random roads.. By pure luck, I happen to glance over real quick and I see this car. It was basically love at first site. I slammed on my brakes in the middle of the road and pulled into the nearest parking lot so I could go to look at it. As soon as I pulled up close to the car I said to my friend, "I'm am soooo gonna buy this car". It wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but it has everything I've always wanted. #1. Its fast. #2. It looks good. #3 It has T-tops which is something I've ALWAYS wanted :D.

So I took down the number on the for sale sign which was the only thing listed and I called the guy the next day. He told me everything about the car and everything sounded great to me. I was only wanting to spend around 4k, and I asked him how much he wanted for it and he said 6500.. I saw the car that I fell in love with at first sight not happening at that point. So I explained to the guy that I really only wanted to spend around 4k. He said, well you know what. If you really want the car we can come up with a number. He said he wanted the car to go to someone that will appreciate it and not wreck it the first day they get it. So I threw out the number 4700. He agreed with really little convincing. I went down to look at it with a 500 dollar down payment. Test drove it and decided that I needed to have the car right then and there. I wrote a check out for the full amount and had him drive it to my house and have a buddy bring him back. Which was really generous because its about a 45 minute trip. Everything worked out great... Enough with the talking, heres some pics..

Heres the final pics of the camaro :cool:

Looks like a good decision, nice car. Way too nice to even think about driving in "winter"....lol How many miles does it have on it?

Just one thing, you might want to cover the plates on the car when you post a pic online. Thieves can find the car from running the plate.

Clean car! I've allway's had a soft spot for them, at one time we had a black and 1983 Anniversary Hurst Cutlass that was in decent shape, we ended up selling the car for a GTX. My mom had a black 442 when she first met my dad, pretty cool cars haha.. If you ever feel the need to get rid of it let me know, we want one for a pro-street car. tubbed, 502 etc.. :devil: :macho
