Hi all, I've been shadowing this forum for years now and it's with mixed feelings that I finally signed up and my first post is for the sale of my Corvette.
Having been a Corvette fan all of my life and having read about Hennessey in car magazines as a kid, I bought this Corvette about a year and a half ago to use as a signature car for my business and to enjoy personally. My primary/full-time profession is as a real estate investor & agent, but I also have a car dealer license because I was never able to shake the car bug like the rest of you, in fact, I think I took it to a whole other level.
It's been a hell of an experience owning this finely crafted piece of American machinery, but I recently came across an unbelievable deal on a built 350 engine, turbo 400 tranny and a 9" rear-end, and I'm ready to build a custom muscle car for my business - hopefully a C3.
The car has been serviced by Simpson Chevrolet in South Orange County, which is one of the biggest Chevy dealers in the area. I have their service records and multi-point inspection, as well as paperwork from Hennessey and an AutoCheck report (it scores 94 out of 94).

I have over 100 HD photos and a few videos of the car in action. Happy to share them. Feel free to DM for any additional info or questions.
WOW! Thanks for all the love and support everyone! I wasn't expecting this!
I thought I'd share something pretty cool that happened to me yesterday morning. I was driving out to Santa Monica to meet with a real estate client and I got a message (on Instagram) from....THE GENTLEMAN THAT ACTUALLY DID THE BUILD ON THE VETTE AT HENNESSEY!
I still can't believe it! Such a cool guy to talk to! He sent me a picture of his own C6 GS! It's absolutely gorgeous!
Maybe I'm a little too sentimental, but I thought that was so cool!! Haha.

Reason: Sentence structure
Because I've got serious OCD issues and I love my cars man! Haha.
I'm actually a little upset about how some of the interior photographed. The lack of lighting and shadows make it not look as clean as it is, but ehh...what can you do
Safe to say we were well represented at Cars & Coffee in San Clemente on Saturday
Plenty of C5s, C6s and C7s but I was stuck on my laptop doing work for real estate clients so only managed few pictures
I was approached by a gentleman who invited me to the Vettes for Veterans show in Carlsbad this weekend, but I'll be in Hawaii for a wedding, so I thought I'd pass it on!
Giving this a quick bump and hoping to catch up on some PM's today. Sorry I went MIA on people who have messaged me, I'm not trying to ignore anyone! I've been super busy with my real estate clients as 2018 wraps up.
I was interviewed on the car this weekend. It was an absolutely awesome experience. Just another testament to the level of attention this car gets where ever it goes!
Pretty sure I was giddier than a little girl on x-mas morning. Haha! Look forward to sharing it when it's published. Thought'd share a picture from that and my setup for the holiday cruise I was part of this weekend too!
