Given it's history, it's not worth rebuilding to resell. Late model C4's in running condition with clean histories are selling for about what you would have to put into this one to get it working.

If I spent a 100K to build a C4, it would be safe to say it wouldn't come out looking like that.

About 20 years ago I was involved in a high speed pursuit as an unwilling passenger in my friend's built up 79 Monza. Told him not to run, but he...

Damn, thought I was anal about parking and door dings. Well I certainly wouldn't wish death or cancer or AIDS on someone who dings my door. It's nothing that a touch up brush couldn't fix.

Didn't see many C4 cars in that video promo (no shocker there), but it would be cool to have a Vette only TV show none the less. :thumbs:

Did I see Z06 badges on that yellow conversion? It's bad enough when guys put Z06 badges on a base C5, but to see them on a C5 clone, that a double fake. :nono:

Those valve covers are stunning!

Side question about injectors...I had one fail on my old L98 IROC. Did GM upgrade the injectors on the LT-1 or use the same ones from the L98? In other words,...

The wannabe elitists have been saying the Vette (and F-body) is "hillbilly" for years.

Here is the ultra rare 1986 "Cada-Vette" I spotted the other day. It has the optional 4.5 Liter V8, as the badge will tell you. :rolleyes:

As much as I like the GN, I would have to jump on the Turbo T/A. The heart of a GN with the looks and handing of the 3rd gen F-body....best of both worlds.

29 with my 89 Vert. 36 with my 93 Ruby coupe.

Would have loved to have had a Vette at 16 like some guys on here. Instead my poor ass drove a 1981 Mercury Zephyr station wagon. :willy:

Agreed. Clay bar the paint first, you can buy the kit at Walmart. Then I would definitely get it machine buffed. If you aren't comfortable grinding on your paint then pay a detailer, but it's...

I'm also a fan of Mecum. Their cars are more realistic of what you would the average guy (read: me!) would be able to buy and drive.

Re: 1993 Vette for $10,975 (rainsux89)

I had an 89 Convertible that I stupidly sold in August 03. I am looking to get back into a Vette. I found a local dealer...
