Up for sale is my 1999 Torch Red coupe with a 408 engine and other mods. My C5 doesn't hold much interest for me anymore, so it is time to find it a new home.

edit: Sale price is $10,000.00 as-is. Please read through the thread for further explanation.
I'll sell the car and everything else as a package for $14,000.00
edit: I hold the title to the car with no loans or liens

Extras:
I have quite a few extra parts: MTI valve covers, LED tail lights, original tail lights, original headlights, original instrument, radio, and door bezels, original center console, GHL Magnum cat-back, two valley covers, etc. Easily over $2,000.00 worth of spares/extras.
I’ve also acquired a few special tools (Kent-Moore and others) for the Corvette: serial data tester (for use with Tech II), trim height gauges, trim height adjusting tool, lifting pads, e-brake setting caliper, oxygen sensor wrench, TPMS programmer, and a digital alignment gauge. I paid about $500.00 for these tools. Buying these new would cost more.
These parts and tools could be added to the sale for an agreed-upon price.

2013/14 Dodge Durago R/T
2012/13 Chevy Avalanche 4WD
2011-up Chevy Tahoe

Factors such as mileage, age, condition, etc., apply...

Most likely, a trade would involve additional funds from me

Trade offers...drop me a PM

TTT........I've seen the car in person & it's an amazing ride. If I didn't already have a vette i'd probably be holding the title now.

Bump. Slight change in status to the car. It had sat for an extended period of time, and the fuel went bad...engine isn't running right now.
As of today, the fuel has been drained and replaced (with some cleaner and stabilizer); the fuel filter has been replaced and the supply line has been flushed all the way to the fuel rail connection. Engine still not running.
Injector cleaning is next, but if someone is interested (and makes the right offer) I'd be thrilled to sell it as-is.
If anyone is interested, please PM me with an offer. Thanks.
