Impressive suspension mods. That 502 is a "stump puller". Lots of torque. Had one in a 71 Chevelle. Must sound great with those side pipes.

Not 100% sure, but less than 2,000, I really never tracked it since the odometer always work and did not need to be rebuilt.

I also showed it a year after paint was done but before the drive train was installed.

Mostly cruise nights or car shows, one trip to the Jersey shore (250 mile round trip in one day, car ran great).

Always in a heated garage and covered with a Wolf cover.

I've been casually looking for a C3 like this for awhile. Unfortunately I'm in the middle of building my house, otherwise I'd be coming to look at it.
(unless you are interested in trading for an 03 Z06 with an LS7 :*****)

Good luck with the sale. She's a beauty.

Thanks for the complement.

I thought they meant low price, too.

$35,000 is what I think is a more than fair number especially since I know what it took to build this.

Thanks for your trade offer but no, I bought a '04 Z06 new, and it was an incredible car!

Good luck with the house.

The gauges were rebuilt with white faces, or custom aftermarket ?

White face overlays.

All the gauges except for the clock worked, so only the clock needed a conversion to quartz.

If I keep the car, my next project would be to have the seat covers (which are now perfect) redone in '70's period quilted style, like spending more money on this would be a good idea....

Thanks.

Nope.

Car came from the Midwest prior to my getting it, not sure where before.

Any little surface stuff was cleaned and sealed with Eastwood rust encapsulator.
