Default Turbo Corvette for Sale

CAR IS SOLD!!!


I thought I would share this link with you guys in hopes of drumming up some interest. If you have any questions at all please let me know. I'm looking to get rid of it sooner than later so I can get a new "family" car that I can take the kids to school in.

If someone is interested please let me know. I'm getting anxious to get a new car, and this one has to be gone first.

The car is still for sale. If someone would rather just purchase the turbo kit off of me let me know and we can work something out.

Well, the wife is picking up the new family car as we speak. Now I really need to get rid of the vette. PM me any reasonable offer for the turbo vette and come pick it up. The sooner the better.

What is the new family car. And don't tell me that you are selling the Vette because you are getting a Dodge Caravan or Chevy Impala...

Here's the new car, Mitsubishi Galant Sport. The wife works for Mitsubishi and got us the empolyee pricing(if anyone else is looking for some VIP pricing on a Mitsubishi she can help you out). This one was built in Illinois by UAW workers. We couldn't pass up the deal, MSRP is around $24k and we were out the door tax, title, liscense for under $14k.

We did trade in our 200k mile minivan to qualify for $3,500 for the cash for clunkers.

My girlfriend picked it up for me and is keeping it in her FOUR car garage. I thought she would be impressed with such a classy and powerful car. She told me it was too hot and loud. Women.... Well at least I don't have to worry about her wrapping it around a telephone pole.

My wife pretty much thinks the same thing, until you pull the top of and go cruising on those nice spring/summer days, then she really enjoyed it.

I still think I will try to find a way to hook up the AC. Looking forward to driving it with the targa top off this spring.

You may want to take a look at some of the aftermarket systems out there as well. Maybe find a more compact evap. box from one of the kits and then use the stock compressor and condenser.

Thanks for the tip. I'm working on getting a 1990 ZR1 evap box which may solve the issue with the AC. I'm also considering putting some forged pistons in and getting some AFR 195 heads for it. I've heard so many forced induction people that have broke the ring lands on the hypereucraptic pistons.
