Bought this Corvette with the hope to make it look like new again, but unfortunately no longer have the time to put into it. It is great starter Corvette for anyone who's always wanted to own one. Or this can be the basis to great fast fun race car. Either way you look at it, it is in good overall shape for its age. 
The engine had been rebuilt by the previous owner and added few performance parts to make this sports car even faster. Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, larger size injectors, performance spark plugs/ wires, and dual Flowmaster exhaust are some of these parts. Also has new chrome Edelbrock valve covers and brand new 255/60r16 Toyo Proxes R888 racing tires in the rear that still have the nipples on them.The two front tires have about half life left, but it will come with two 255/50r16 Falken Ziex ZE-512 tires with about 80% life left. 
The paint is custom with all emblems removed, though it does have some imperfections here and there, but the body is flawless with no bodywork done to the Corvette. All windows are in great shape with no cracks or ships, though will need to be stripped off the tint. The interior is all there, but will need new carpet and either seat covers or upholstery. 
All lights and gauges work properly and the famous digital cluster also works great, though something went bonkers with the odomoeter and it shows incorrect mileage (should be around 130k). Underneath, this Corvette won't need much as the steering and suspension components are all in great shape with minimal wear. 
Now for the down side to this great American sports car, the engine has recently blown head gasket. Not sure if when rebuilt, the head wasn't torqued properly or was just bad quality of gasket used but the left side will need new one. immediately parked it, had it towed, and once in my garage drained the oil and coolant so no contamination would occur. Not sure if any antifreeze actually got in the oil since no trace was found in it, but didn't want to risk it so haven't ran it since. 
Other than that, the rear window shocks are out and there are couple of wires unplugged from the doors side panels so neither windows go down. The Flowmasters were taken off at one point in order to add exhaust cutouts but never got around to buying and installing them so the Flowmasters will need to be welded back in place or cutouts can be added. 
Before the head gasket issue, this Corvette was extremely fun to drive and paked with tons of power. The transmission shifted perfectly and engine rumbled with authority. All that would be needed is to change that gasket out and this Vette would be back on the road tearing it up or cruising down the interstate with style. have run out of time with this beauty, but someone now has chance to own this beast and with some money in the interior as well as some work in the engine can have great C4. 
Any other questions just ask. also have more pics that can e-mail or can take any particular ones that you want, just let me know. This is NO RESERVE auction with super low starting bid so don't miss out!! Clear title in hand!!
