Im selling my 1998 chevrolet corvette convertible with 172,000 miles. Corvette is triple black with oem z06 rims painted black. Car looks great for the years/mileage it has.

The shocks to keep the hood up will no longer support its weight.
Front tires are Falken with about 90% thread left.

power seats, factory cd changer in the back (not sure if anyone uses cd's anymore though), ride control option,

considering trading my z06 rims and tires for c5 wagon wheels/tires plus cash.

I might also consider removing some of the easier to remove bolt ons to lower the price of the car (got a friend whos willing to help me out)

tranny, and engine work, etc....?

UPDATE.

Battery just replace.
Took car to mechanic to see if he can fix the fuel issue. He replaced the map sensor and put the stock maf sensor back on the car. Car will still come with granatelli maf (just not installed). Car seems to eat less gas but still smells rich.

Car will get smogged soon.

VIN number sent to those who requested it.
