Well, it is a 1992 V6, and the engine is seized up. It is actually in good shape, just some scaly surface rust in a few spots. The t-tops do not leak though, and the floors are not rusted out anywhere. So....what should I do with this thing?

A) Pull out the V6, and sell it as a roller

B) Put a rather stock 355 in it and sell it

C) Put a built 355 in it, maybe a turbo setup, or nitrous.

I am sort of leaning towards selling it as a roller.

car doesn't looks pretty good, i'd try selling it as a roller. if that doesn't work throw a 355 in it, if you wanna keep it go LT1 or LS1 imo

I always see a kid that works at Culvers in New Berlin on National Ave that has an identical V6 bird, he has an exhaust mod done to it not sure but whatever he did it sounds like complete ass. He always starts it up ice cold and throws it into gear right away and tries to do a burnout as he is leaving the parking lot. I wouldn't be suprised if that is his old car seeing as how the motor is froze and the way that he treats his.

Sell it as a roller, how much did you pick it up for?

I guess I don't see the point of yanking the engine out and selling it as a roller...just easier to sell it as is? ;)

I'd put in a mild 350 for some fun, then sell.

Sounds good...you wouldn't even have to pull the motor either, i'd buy it as it is.

It would make a good drag car....considering that I have almost nothing into it.

Looks like a good car to start with. Keep it, as long as you don't go too wild you should be able to get your money out of it. If not you can drop it at my door for no charge! :D
