Default '92 Custom Convert with LS3 "Hot Cam" FS

1992 corvette convertible, custom, with LS3 Hot Cam crate engine, 4 speed automatic, air, power windows, steering, brakes and locks.

Modifications include:
custom paint with flames and air brushing;
carbon fiber kit and custom leather interior;
engine dress up;
LS3 Hot Cam GM Performance Parts crate engine (LS376/480 Hot Cam) now producing 429 rwhp and 442 rwtq (both measured on a loaded dyno) after being tuned on a Dyno Dynamics loaded dyno at Dyno-Comp in Scottsdale, Arizona;
cold air intake;
custom radiator;
long tube headers;
3" exhaust with Flow Masters;
Dana 36 with 3.73 gears;
modified 700R4 tranny with heavy duty torque converter;
custom made 17x10 Boyd Coddington Smoothies (custom made by Boyd Coddington to change the offset);
front ground effects;
one of a kind computer interface that ties the two computers together and saves all digital functions in the dash;
and, Auto Meter oil pressure gauge.

Car has about 122,000 miles on it including about 24,000 on the build which was completed in August of 2010 by Corvette Restoration AZ. Owner has approximately $50,000 invested. Insured for stated value of $52,000.

Winner of 47 awards while being shown at car shows in Arizona and Calif. for three years. One of a kind C4 (cannot find another with this engine on Corvette Forum or elsewhere). Part of the "C4orce Project" started by Corvette Fever. To see pictures of the car, the build, most of the awards and two videos of the tune, go to the below photobucket. The photobucket has albums on all of the above with lots of pictures. There is also a thread on this forum under the C4 Tech section entitled "LT1 conversion to LS3 Hot Cam" which discusses the build. I am asking $25,000, but will consider ALL OTHER OFFERS.

Here is the link to the photobucket: http://s1213.photobucket.com/albums/cc479/c4orce2/

One final price reduction to $25,000. Approximately 1/2 of what I have in it.

LS motor looks good in there. Why not an LS7 though?

The LS3 Hot Cam with the kit was around $9,000, the LS7, at least at that time, was $27,000.

LT5corsa, thanks for posting some of the pictures. If I wasn't so IT challenged, I would have posted some of the same pics myself. I really have mixed feelings about selling the car. If it doesn't sell for $25K (about 1/2 of what I have in it), it surely will not break my heart. Thanks again!

Don't sell it....

I've never seen another one like it (convertible to boot).

If you take it to shows and have a "small for sale" sticker on it, it will sell when you least expect it.

TRUST me somebody with coin will buy this car for much more than $25k.

Nice car!!!

Hadn't been to a car show in two months and couldn't stand it. So I went to a show in northern Arizona (too hot in the valley for shows now) and picked up my 44th award, 2nd place in the Corvette-Any Year class. If I still have the car in September I will be going to shows almost every weekend. Great place to own great cars!

For any potential buyers in the Phoenix area, I will be at the Pavilions in Scottsdale late Saturday afternoon, early evening, this week (8/4/12) unless we have another dust storm. I would be more than happy to go over the details of the car at that time. Since this will be the first Saturday of the month, there should be 30-50 vettes at the show along with 100-150 other cars.

The only reason the car is for sale at such a low price is my current financial situation, which could change any day now. If my financial condition takes a turn for the better the car will be off the market or at least the price will double. So if anyone is interested in the car at the $25,000 price, act now.
