Preview of my Dream C5 build
Well guys, I purchased this MY 2000 C5 in January of 2009. It was a stock appearing coupe with a forged LS7 engine that had only 3,500 miles on it along with the centerforce clutch. The motor puts out just over 500 wheel horsepower and just under 480 foot pounds of torque.
Before you comment on the mismatched wheels, let me tell you that some custom Forgelines will be on the car in less than 4 weeks.
The build has been taking place since March with quite a bit of down time waiting for custom parts to be produced.
There are still some bugs to work out.
Following is what was done and photos:

Thanks for all the kind words. I do have a removeable hydro carbon fiber targa top for it and am awaiting the custom L5 real carbon fiber mudflaps for in back of the front and rear tires. I also have some black race mesh grills coming for the rear vents on either side of the exhaust on the lower fascia. The new Forgeline wheels ordered are going to be the finishing touch. I will post pictures when all is complete and the car will be show at Mid Americas Funfest next month. Cheers!
