Nice set of CCW SP500's for sale with only 300 miles on the tires.
I guess he did not like the look.
With tires this set costs normally around $4400 or more (depending on tire cost).

He is selling for $3000.

forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-parts-for-sale-wanted/3209217-ccw-sp500.html

He made a mistake on the sizes in his post they are 19x10, and 19x11.5.

The mod red matches your Calipers nicely... I guess mod red really is a mod, since you had the all black interior to begin with.. If someone has a mod red interior and changes to all black, does that make it mod black, since it would be a mod with the change? Ok Mark, I'm waiting for a Homie the Clown reply on this one

150k? Really? I suppose a modded Z06 would go for close to $200k.. Wait a minute, this car has the UNIQUE GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE ED. WITH RED & WHITE TWIST WIRING HARNESS.. That is one very rare Corvette

Harry was a GREAT guy. Been part of our group for 5+ yrs. He passed with cancer. He will be surely missed by all of us.

He asked we continue to "Raise a Glass" for him every time were out with the boys. And we continue to honor that !

Yep David ,,that wire twist makes all the difference,,only 120,000 of them ever made But I think he got the wording wrong , it was suppose to read, " Unique Twisted George Westinghouse Ed.
