Default motor: just thought i'd pass this along

found this on craigslist here locally. i'd love to have the car to go with it, but since i don't, i figured i'd pass it along to you guys. don't know anything about it, other than general LT5 knowledge. if you're out of state, i'd be happy to look it over for you. lemme know.

Nice of you to offer to look at the engine, but it's not in Las Vegas, it's here in Oklahoma. in my warehouse. I smell a scam.

A26B, well, i'm glad to know that. if i had enough dough laying around to make an offer, i would have. i take it that is not your ad? who's placing ads for your stuff in las vegas?

biz, thanks. the front springs are 460# (rear is still stock, for now), all poly bushings and koni shocks. i'm actually selling the sawblades, even though i really like the looks of them on the car. i purchased a set of c5 thinspokes last year that i will be using on the car. the main reason is i want a single spare set of wheels that will go on either car. unfortunately, the c4's don't fit the front of the c5, so they gotta go.

Sorry to take this off topic, but I'm considering C5 thinspokes for my '77 and was wondering where you were getting your wheel adapters at?

Ok guys... Turns out this guy is legit...

It's a co-worker of mine trying to help out. I can tell it's him by his email address. He told me he was advertising on the hot rod forums but didn't mention the list.

He's good to go...

Sorry for the confusion...

Cheers,
Ron
