Default Vintage Corvette race car for sale or trade for C6 or C7 +/- cash !!

A vintage 1968 Corvette convertible race car. A turnkey ( actually, just push the button… ) race car. Its ready to go. ALL fluids have been changed and flushed. Over 100k invested with receipts. Fresh build, 1 test day only. (It’s a rocket !! ) Brand new dry sumped Gibbs SB2 motor, new Jericho transmission, Tilton 3 disc clutch, new 4:10 rear, amazing Nascar style roll cage, 3 way Halon fire suppression system, new seats and belts, cool shirt cooler and shirt, 3 sets of wheels and tires including a brand new set of Hoosier slicks. Lightweight Greenwood wide body, with fully removable body panels. Trans and diff coolers, full heim joint suspension, adjustable sway bars, huge radiator,Painless wiring system, Bilstein coil overs, Randy’s custom rear end, with Toms big axles and studs. Willwood pedal and Willwood 4 piston big brakes all around that haul this ballistic Corvette to a stop…… VERY quickly. The list goes on and on. No expense was spared in building this Vintage rocketship.

Ok here’s the COOL part. The car comes with TWO log books, and a clear title. The first log book dating back to 1972 !! The car raced at famous courses like Watkins Glen, Mid-Ohio and all the big tracks. Good finishing history. This is the real deal Vintage Corvette race car. Not for the timid, or weak of heart. In the right hands this car is a first place car, no excuses, it’s all there, and ready to go. The second log is current and has a 2013 tech inspection done to it. Put gas in it and go. This car can run in all the Vintage classes, GT1, SPO,V8 Stock car, or dozens of other race groups !!


Don’t let life, or this opportunity pass you by.

PRICE REDUCED FOR THE HOLIDAYS !! 49K BUYS IT !! Add it all up and it’s around 120k put into this beautiful race car. My loss might be your lifelong dream come true. Check the price against some of the real quality pieces on the race site, it’s a good deal for the car. http://www.race-cars.com/carsales/complist.htm

You could already have the race car in your garage, and it would cost you more to duplicate then what I am asking for this car !!

Call before it’s gone.

You do need to post what C6s you'd be willing to accept in trade.

I'm looking to trade for a ZR1, Z06, or Grandsport. Any colors but yellow, or red. Stick or automatic. Will trade up $$, straight across, or down.

This is a lot of car for the money. Extremely fast, safe and reliable.

If you ever wanted to go vintage racing, this is the ticket !!

It was mostly raced in the 70s in Mid Ohio, Watkins Glen and surrounding tracks. Not sure where it was in the 80s...
