Default 79k original mile LT1 and 4L60e

Sorry for the huge post in advance but I felt it important to be as thorough as possible.

Looking to sell the motor and trans or either out of my 96 Roadmaster that I drive daily. I put 30k miles on it myself over the past year and a half. All I have done are plugs and a thermostat in those 30k miles. I have a great deal lined up on a low mile caprice LT1 and have to get rid of something if I get the Caprice.

Unfortunately the car was the victim of two bonehead drivers. One hit and ran after rear ending me at highway speeds so the right rear quarter has a half ass fiberglass fix. The left rear passengers door is also no good but still opens and closes. Other than that it is a loaded, rust free, 79k mile, 96 roadmaster limited. I say its loaded because this roadie has more options on it than any others ive seen/owned. It has twilight sentinel, auto dimming mirror, heated leather, cd/cassette radio, had the trunk pull down like the fleetwoods but it doesnt work since being rear ended. It would be a fantastic car to part out and if I had the space and tools that is exactly what I would do.

The engine does have a small oil leak, the water pump leaks (but I have a 50k mile water pump I stripped off a buddy's firebird that I will include), and I think the optispark needs replacing. It may just need wires or the egr tube might be clogged. I've got a spare EGR tube but have not bothered to see if that's the issue as the car runs fine for daily driving. The car runs fantastic and I do drive it everyday. I think it needs an opti because it's a little hard to start in the morning and it seems to be slightly low on power.

The transmission is perfect.

I would like 500obo on the motor, 800obo for the trans and motor, or 1000obo for the whole car. I believe the motor and trans are priced right based on what I have seen. I am just adding the 200 or so the junk yard is willing to pay on top of that for the full body/interior. If these prices do not seem right feel free to let me know guys. Remember the car has low miles and you can come drive the car to see exactly how the motor and trans react as I drive it daily. Also since I drive it daily I can deliver the car as long as the purchaser is willing to give me a ride home.

Also if there is another member who doesn't mind the bluesmobile look I would suggest keeping it as a daily driver/winter beater. If I didn't also have a firebird lt1 and an f350 this would be my top choice. I am not going to post pictures unless someone is seriously interested because the car is so beat up on the outside.

I will be more than happy to help with a motor/trans pull but you must have a place to do it and if you do not buy the body too must be willing to have a local scrap yard pick the car up.

I have tried to explain everything to the best of my ability. If there are any questions feel free to call (don't text me it's gay) or post/pm on here.

Again trying to move this as fast as possible so do not be afraid to make offers!

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

The Caprice tow pack with 40k miles I'll be picking up if this works out would be a much better car for it!
