J series swap ftw

Where do you live? If an experienced Han member is by you I am sure you could bribe them to help swap it way cheaper than a shop

Got a Z6 with 50k on it for $300 bucks awhile back. Those things are dirt cheap.

Thanks for replies.

Guy told me it would cost me $800 for labor to swap a z6 and about $1200 in labor for a b-series.

He said I can get +/- $1000 for the shell.

Im still debating on weather to pay $1400 for a new z6 or selling the shell.

I live in Brooklyn, NY. I wish I knew someone that can even turn a wrench around here, then Id attempt a swap, but I dont.

Biggest problem is that I dont have any place I can work on it. If someone with experience could help me do a swap, that would be the coolest.

Anyways, I love the car, I'll post some pics of it soon.

Uhh...I think he told me that he'd punch me in the face if he ever saw me...or was it LT or somebody?

Anyways, I'd actually take him up on that.
