F/S: Parting out 1998 Vert...new pics added
I have finally gotten approval from my attorney to start parting out this car. The lawsuit is still on-going but it is time to make room.
This is/was a 1998 C5 Convertible that was extensively modified.
I know that the pics have been floating around and many, many rumors about how this happened have been started. Even my barber started telling me the story about this guys corvette that got run over by a van...well hey, that’s my vette! However, this is not the place nor time to have this discussion. I'm only trying to sell some stuff and recoup a little of the massive expense.
There are way too many parts to even begin to list. The car has a lot of damage but there are still many good useable parts.
Please email me with requests and I will get back to you. I will also post here all items that are sold and individual items that I’m able to isolate and price out. Please be patient with me and I will do my best to follow forum rules and make everyone happy.
Engine, drive train, suspension are not damaged:
SLP 402 short block
West Coast Racing Heads
Spec Stage 3 Clutch
ECS Novi 2000 with alky
8 Rib pulley
ECS Fuel System
Built Torq-tube with solid Aluminum couplers
Rockland Standard Built Z06 Trans
3R Automotive Shifter Rod

I need the driver side front fender if not broken, including the inner fender(black plastic that goes below the fender and over the wheel)
Also the drivers side headlight cover if possible. Also need the mirror glass - looks like its hanging from the mirror assembly.
Scratches are ok since i will be painting white.
Awaiting PM.
thanks

- Picture is not staged. It's real. Can send you 20 more if you like. Including the one with the 3 fire trucks, 2 wreckers, 6 police cruisers, 8 cops, 20 firemen, fire marshal, and 50 on-lookers. Took over 2 hours to get the van off. It was balancing on top of my car and could have rolled off at any moment.
- Its not a junk yard. Its a body shop.
- I own the body shop. I own the vette.
- It wasn't fun.
- I'm still fighting with the insurance company. The owner of the van has only $10,000 in liability insurance
- I'm already over $5000 deep in legal bills fighting the owner of the van trying to get him to pay. I see him every day...he's my next-door neighbor
Nope
- Plate cover is available. I could paint it any color you want. $60 plus shipping. Insert is brushed alum. painted black.

- LT Fender Liner should be available...make me an offer
- Inner fender is not removable...this is the apron that is glued in place. I may have some of the shields that fit below the bumper but they would have been cut down for when the supercharger was installed.
- LT Headlamp cover...I should have the stock pop-up lamps someplace. Projector lamps were on the car at the time of accident and they were destroyed. I also have a set of Breathless Performance non-pop-up lamps laying around. these had been on the car perviously.
- The LT Mirror housing is broken. I'll check on the glass.
Please just email me...I get the emails all day long. But usually forget to check the forum.

I also have a brand new set of CCW 505a's. They are 18" with a 1" ft lip and 3" rear lip. They are new as of 6/24. Never been mounted. I had sent them off to be powder coated clear. This is why the car was parked. The poweder coating was never done. It would have cost me $300. I paid $2745 for the wheels on 6/12.
I have already sold the 345 Nitto drag radials.
I still have a pair of Nitto 555 Extreams in 245/40/18. I believe I paid $120 ea.
