Default 1982 C3 LS Swap (LQ4) w/ Autofab 9" Rear, Performabuilt 4L60E For Sale.

Photo Album

I've been on the cusp of finishing this car for 3 years but family commitments and a 500 miles relocation have sidelined it long enough. There's enough going on that I can't keep it in the garage any longer because I'm just not going to make it right.

The lights work, turn signals work and can be made to be street driven once the horn is hooked up. No Air Conditioning or Heater.

It started out as a driver C3 and became Holley 750 Carb powered.

Then it became a 383 Stroker.

Then it became an LS Swap.

Then it became an LS Swap with a 9" Rear and built up transmission to handle the power.

Then the life pendulum swung and took this journey off in a completely unforeseen but worthwhile direction.

Anyway that's a little background of what was to become a 10 second car for $10,000.

Currently located in Columbus, Ohio and FS either as a complete car or possibly separating the drivetrain and selling as a roller to a racer.

With a couple weekends of work you'll be ready for the Street Car Shootout at Cecil. NMCA. LSX Shootout. Summit ET Series.

Everything needed to make it go is included. Clear title and even throwing in the trailer with delivery as far as NJ/PA/DE/MD if there's an East Coast/Mid-Atlantic buyer.

1982 Corvette which came from the factory Black but is currently Canary Yellow, hence the name Tweety.
