Cobalt SS LNF 80-100k Miles.

Looking for an LNF, preferably stock or lightly modified. Only have around 9k to spend so of course I'll be looking for a higher mileage one. Would consider a lightly rebuilt one if you have pictures of the damage before hand.

Thanks.

Located in Detroit. Best to just text me (248-891-6977) or Message me on FaceBook. Josh Liem. Orange LSJ.

Here you go, and its a southern car.
Pay my gas and I will drive down, look it over, drive it, and do whatever needed for you to buy it.

Seafoam time.

Jeez, is that turbo swapped? That's a big intake.

Yep.
But I am sure he could get it for 6k OTD.
Its the cheapest SS/TC in the country that isn't wrecked

Why is it so cheap, I'd honestly consider buying it.

Edit- Upon closer inspection it's got a ZZP LNF turbo upgrade kit, I'm sending them a message to see if they know anything.

What is that canister looking thing with the two hoses coming out next to the air filter?
Are all those hoses running over top of the valve cover for the bov?

No it does not have the Powell oil separator, it has an MPX catch can which is pretty much useless.

I had the dealer send me a video of the car as I was going to buy it. Sounds like the timing chain is broken on it

The motor wouldn't run with a broken chain.
Maybe bad tensioner?

I'm in Detroit. I've got an rebuilt 09 red sedan, 64k miles, bough it on these forums with 38k miles on it. Got in a low speed front impact, had the airbags go off. Airbags, front clip, radiator core support, and radiator were replaced. I bought it from a guy on the forums here who's dad was a mechanic, they rebuilt it at their shop and he DD'd it for a while before selling it for a new project.

It's a full bolt on car, hard piping, bigger intercooler, stock turbo on 22 psi tune. Needs a new alternator and the clutch started slipping the other day, so I'm only asking 6500 for it. Powertrain aside from the clutch is solid, no issues. New NGK plugs @ 50k and regular oil changes, synthetic only. 80% tread left on it. Running Conti DW all seasons, bought them in November so they only have about 10 months of use on them. Planning on putting a new alternator in it before I sell it.

It has every option, including g85 and the big stereo. I'm going to post it tomorrow when I clean it up. I can send pictures if you're interested.
