9c3 ya later

Post by Olddohc »

Been a member of the Facebook group for awhile, figured Id finally join here. I found out about these bad boys sometime around early 2018. Was searching for a “budget G8”’and somehow found these. I flew to WA to get my first one, buddy saw it, liked it so much he bought it off me 2 days later. It is now kind of popular in the group...
Leadfoot gray, all holes filled, 9c3 carpet, g8 console/shifter, custom ZL1 hood, FBOs, CTSV coupe wheels, etc. I go back for my second one the next week, another buddy buys it within 2 weeks. This starts to get addicting... I fly somewhere, haul ass home and make a couple bucks. I have repeated this pattern over 20 times since then and cant seem to stop. In the process I have stock piled what I call my preLSA kit. I think I am finally going to keep one. Its a 13 9c1, no holes in the front bumper or trunk. PreLSA kit includes a G8 console/shifter that Im still on the fence about because I have the paddle shifters, SS springs, FBOs, BLP BTR stage 2 NA cam & DOD kit, custom ZL1 hood, G8 wheels & Forgestar D5 drag pack, 3.27s, I think that is everything. In the meantime I will be doing a half Tracey weight stripping. Cant afford to delete ABS like a boss just yet.
Thanks for having me.
