Member has not been on the forum since 3/10/23. Closing this thread and if the car is still available, OP can contact me and I will reopen the thread.

@97C5ENVY


EDIT: Member contacted me and stated the car is still available. Reopening the thead, bumping it to the top, and best of luck selling the vehicle.

That seems like a whole lot of car for the money. Good luck with the sale.

Can I get a start up video, idle walk around? Also, how long have you owned the car? How many miles ago were the engine modifications done?

I've owned the car since 1999, most mods were done between 2001-2006, a search of my posts here on this forum will provide you with an indepth view of all things done and experienced this vette. As for the walk-around video i'll try and get one posted this week...it's been rainy as heck here in Texas the past few weeks.

How does it behave on the hwy? My plans would include driving this about 50 miles roundtrip to work 1-2 times per week.

A few questions I've been asked about the car that I wanted to share:

- All fluids have been changed at required intervals (oil, anti-freeze, tranny, diff, brakes, clutch, etc).
- AC does NOT work due to a leak and hasn't worked since about 2004.
- There are NO electrical issues, however the key fobs do not work even though batteries inside them have been changed
