Decisions Decisions

A little background first. I'm military stationed at Barksdale AFB in Louisiana. I got orders to go to germany so I put up my 1991 Z28 camaro for sale because I couldn't ship it. Then my orders got cancelled so I didn't sell it. Well the car was still up for sale on a website.

I had the car for sale for $4,500. That way they could talk me down a little to around 4,000 and I would pretty much break even maybe make a few bucks on what I paid for the car. So a guy e-mails me and tells me he is interested. He asks for more pictures and details to I sent him some. He e-mails me and tells me he wants the car but he wants me to deliver it. He will give me $5,000 cash if I deliver it. I need to deliver it but its about 2.5 hours from my parents house which I wanted to go visit anyways. So i'd make out like a bandit and he's going to give me a deposit to make sure I don't get stiffed on the drive.

Here's the decisions. The car is sweet and I love it but it needs a few things. We just recently refinanced our explorer so our payment was cut WAY down. If I sell my camaro there is a car for sale here on the lot on base for $8,000. Its around a late 80's corvette. White, auto 98k original miles and the guy has owned it for 10 years. It is a VERY clean car. So i'd still be sticking with a SBC. What do you think?

Keep the Camaro.

IMO, it depends on what body style you like, Camaro? or Corvette? Although how much money have you put into your Camaro?

If theres a chance you are gonna get shipped out any time soon, then I'd say sell it and buy a cheap motorcycle. You'll save some money on buying a new car and on top of that you'll be getting a grand more then what you wanted for the car.

I'd either keep the Camaro, or sell it and deal with 1 vehicle if it feasible.

Just my thoughts though.
