Every car has a price that might seem crazy to some and rational to others. I have noticed a bunch of ls1 cars selling for 25k or less but they also didn't have the aftermarket parts this car has. that being said, I hope to find a person who appreciates the add-ons that have taken many years to acquire. But I also understand the price is high and the parts are not for everyone. so, I can part off pieces to make the price lower if these pieces are not your style. I mean come on, who really needs $500 lug nuts..

I bought the finished swap 7 years ago from a guy who has built many of these v8 conversions. never have I had any major/minor problems.
swap came with:
2002 ls1 from a ws6 with 40k miles
t56 6speed, pro 5.0 shifter
hinson conversion kit
has ps, air conditioning
red top battery in pass bin
wire tucked
stock wheels
koni yellows on ground controls

since the purchase I have added parts.

volk Te37sl 9.5/10.5
front and rears rolled and a very slight pull(you can only put the thickness of 1 credit card in the space in the rear between the tire and body at full compression. 2 credit cards get held in place)
volk formula lugnuts
stance pro coilover
improved racing strut brace w/brake
99 spec lip
99 spec plateless bumper
antenna hole closed
removed mirrors and welded holes
craftsquare mirrors w/blue tint carbon fiber(triangles painted black)
alpine mp3 style head unit
alpine tune-brain/crossover
hybrid audio speakers in custom mounting in doors
jl audio sub
alpine amp
viper alarm, all the add ons. also with gps tracking unit(car pages you with info)
all new glass
car painted by Bodyshop (about 15k in receipts for paint work)
carbon fiber shine street diffuser
carbon fiber shine feed sides
defi water temp molded into stock location
defi oil pressure molded into stock location
all gauges shine white (amber removed)
plastics are textured
brighter head lights(forgot the name)
race shop roll bar set into a different location further back. cut into bins. I have another complete set of bins that will go along with if you want to go to stock.
worksbell hub
nrg quick release and lock
nardi suede 330mm deep corn steering wheel
car cover
Im sure I am forgetting a bunch more...

I recently switched out the original radiator and condenser to an upgraded Samburg performace v2. it has an over the rad k&n filter. all the ac lines are hooked back up to the condenser but I never filled the air again. I can have that done at a local shop before sale. so the pictures will be with the old rad setup. sorry I cannot take new pics at this time since I dropped the car off to Bodyshop to respray the 99spec lip due to a little scrape underneath.

I have taken this car on long distance drives with no problems. this a well sorted car. twice Ive taken it from Chicago area to Nashville(500 mi). air conditioning on and tunes jammin. I would not hesitate to take this cross country. odometer in car says 130k-ish but that is inaccurate. the speedo box(dakota digital) was reading way high for years adding extra miles to the speedo. it would peg the speedo to full out while it was parked. I would guess the body has around 100k and motor 50k. this car was mainly a show car that I took to work only on nice days.

I am interested in trades also

Thanks for looking

thanks!

as you said, it is unreal in person. pictures really do not do this car justice. if seen in person, you would immediately want to pay higher than asking price. it is a steal at 35k...or best offer

Hey I pm'd you about the car. Seeing if your will to just sell the shell with LS mounts, Driveshaft, and T-56? If so let me know how much your will to sell for.

It's a beautiful car I just wouldn't pay $35k unless it had a LS3 or 7 in the bay.

brand new ls3 are 5k ish. or you could go cheaper and put together a motor that makes more power than a stock ls3/7. and then sell the ls1. its stock so theres more value in it than a motor that has who knows what done to it.

I have an LS2 that I took out of my s13 and I'm planning on building it more. Originally I was going to do a LS Turbo S13 but I rather put it in a FD and supercharge it.
Shoot me a text it be easier.

all gauges work.

the stock FD coolant and oil pressure were generic. meaning they didnt give actual numbers of temp and pressure. so they have been changed out to Defi, into the stock location, looking like stock. as you can see in the pictures.
