Just bought another C4!
I just got home from purchasing another 96 LT4. I sold my first one in March and have regretted it ever since.
I'll get some pictures up after it has been cleaned up and licensed. It is a Comp Yellow LT4 (24k miles) with an all forged DRM 383 with ported heads, ported intake, and a not so mild cam (about 5k miles on motor and clutch). Nitrous has been added (most likely I will not use this) with progressive controllers, fuel regulator, and bottle warmer. It also has a line lock.
To me, this car is a beast! I know there are many faster out there, but compared to my previous stock LT4, this one pulls much harder. It even got almost 23 mpg.
Oh well, I'm excited to be a Corvette owner again. I'll post pictures soon.

Sounds like a really sweeeet car. Corvette withdrawal is very hard to conquer. It's much more healthy to simply give in to the withdrawal effects. And a lot more fun too. 
Definitely post pictures when you can. Congrats!

Another yellow LT4! I think I know which car this is... does it also have GS wheels? That looked like an awesome car, I really hope you enjoy it! (I also knew you'd be looking for another one after you sold that beautiful yellow/gray car...

Thanks for all of the kind words. I did not miss my old C4 at first, but since it is getting nice outside, I had to have another. My wife and daughter also wanted me to get another, so it was good to have their support!
Zyal8r, you probably have the right car in mind. It does have the GS wheels. It was for sale on here a few years back. It is a beast (at least to me).
