i'm going to try what i have been advised to do by many. stick to one car and learn it ..soooo the w/c car needs to go and we have a great '02 zo-6 with headers and shocks etc. also to sell...going to spend the efforts on the red z with the dry sump motor for track use... the 67 and the 71 for cruse ins and such and drive the c-6 on trips..i think that's all of them .....today i test positive for a multitude of disorders!!!!

What is the race history of the car (NASA and SCCA): when, where, finish position?
Thank you in advance,

And why has no one bought this car??? One of the better C4's that we built. Tricker then most stuff being built today. John, is it faster then 90 percent of the C5's??? Looks like she got some more Cubic inches.

If you guys have any questions about the chassis let us know.

I think the price is scaring people off.

People don't realize that a current WC car costs $100k easy.

It's about the same price as most T-1 cars. I don't think the price is out of line. This is a whole lot of race car.
