Found this '91 on Craigslist in Greenville, SC last weekend. 103k, 6-speed. Owner said it was running poorly, hard to start, etc.
Long story short I picked it up for $4000, drove it 100 miles back to north Georgia. Ran like crap but it turned out to be a bad fuel pressure regulator and a couple of fouled plugs. Got those fixed and it runs much, much better.
Best part is it's one of 733 Z07 cars built in '91. Needs a few other things but I'm pretty happy with it.

It is indeed steel blue. The clear on the plastic in front of the hood and the tail panel is a bit oxidized but the rest of the paint is decent and I should be able to polish it up a bit.
The real reason I bought the car though was to build an autocross/track day toy out of it. I will be upgrading/freshening the suspension over the next few months and it will be getting an LS swap after the first of the year.

^this owners frustrated the car hasn't sold, it's been up there forever, in the first picture the fiberglass is broken and cracked all the way through next to the headlight, he decided to crop the picture out recently I guess

^ MIGHT be a good deal, with the things wrong with it...I can see it needing at least another 1,200 dollars. For 500 dollars more then what I paid for mine though, not too bad in comparison.

That is my all time favourite C4 color. Get some newer c6 rims on that and i'd never need another one. (long as it is a 6 spd)
Kidding ? that thing s pos that doesnt even start..80k isnt bad but by no means low. Overpriced same with the 84
You need to look in LA or Ventura co man. Way less for way more car. Youll sort through a ton of roaches though.
If he wont even buy a battery for it (more than likely drains it overnight) whats that say about the car

those 84 prices are crazy! If a guy wants to build a track car, 84 is where its at!!
Someone could of bought mine! It was on here for 2 months, but noone wanted too They would of gotten a hell of a better deal then the ones i've linked too, and the car was already pretty much gutted!
some pics below. different views of the engine. i emailed the guy and asked him if the 435 HP engine was a 383 Stroker. he said: how did you guess? I didn't respond back, but figured he had to do something to the L98 engine to get it to 435 HP! it still looks interesting to me, it would be a long drive back to home!!!! and my wife would kill me!!!!

Look at the 4th picture on that listing, and then the interior pics on the link someone else posted, did the gap by the headlight settings just dissapear...? The interior looks WAY cleaner in the link you posted compared the one the other person posted in this thread....floor mats...really cleaned up the seats and so on, still seems fishy to me. Two different posts with two different pictures, and one of them is worse then the other? I just don't get it! Looks like he got the car detailed, and threw a filter onto the photos.

here are the 2 interiors BrandonsBeast is talking about:
yea, i just opened both of them in separate windows and it looks to be a bit odd. now my first comment would be: if you are going to sell your car clean it up a bit. which is what i did when i sold my 2000 Vette back in May. i mean vacuum it a bit, wet cloth over seats surfaces, etc.
and i took my exteriors pics after the body shop had totally cleaned my car (far better i would and they had the WHEELS sparkling!!!). so i had nice pics to use.

they look like 2 different interiors to me.
Just lookin out for whoever was interested in this car i'd stay away, the E brake looks different in both pictures (could be the angle of the pictures) the steering wheel looks different(Could be the filter) one picture has a filter the other doesn't, and the interior plastics, one is grey/black and the other looks like all one color, a dark grey I guess you could call it. If it is the same car...wonder which picture was taken first, did they make it better or worse?
Just noticed, difference between the Center switch on the console, not sure what that is as I don't know late C4 interiors, the middle switch is either different, missing, or just at an odd angle in the first picture. Now you guys see why I didn't link that one in my first listing, once you buy a C4 like I did, these things stick out like a sore thumb

ok, i got a very cryptic message from the seller of the "street legal track race car". the original ad i was looking at is now down, and he has a new one up:
Chevrolet Corvette 6.2 460HP 6 Speed Manual - $6000 (Oxford)
and ad says:
It's an Corvette heavily modified 6.2 putting out 460 Horsepower and has many ZR-1 and z06 parts as well front brake conversion and beefier transmission. It's a registered street legal race car what else can I explain or say about the car they had never been any issues. It starts everytime and drives perfect and very fast it push you back in your seat SO $6,000 CASH NO LESS and TEXT
and he has his original engine pic:
just seems odd, that the original ad said: 435HP, and now it's up to 460 HP, and he has the engine at 6.2...which isn't that the size of the new C7 engine? just seems odd....and perhaps a bit comical....

Congrats and enjoy! Looks like you scored a great deal!
My '90 vert is steel blue and such an awesome color!
