He may get a sale if the right person comes along but IMHO he spent a ton of money on the car that he will never get back,

Actually, thats not a bad old warhog. I hate the ricer paint job but I could work with the rest. Thats NOT a greenwood wing as advertised but the rest SEEMS to be acurately described. I'd probably give maybe 3 grand for it for a toy to play with but thats about it. Thats if I was in the mood for a new toy, but I'm not. He should've posted some time slips. Interesting to look at anyway.

It's different, I'll give it that. Engine looks sweet but I could do without those wheels. It's got potential that's for sure but a little too much rice! That engine though, it would be enough to keep me from making fun of it!

Lower it, paint it black, and put some chrome Zr1s on it, 11s in the rear. Then I bet that car would look pretty sweet.

Anyone spending that much on MODS, is doing it for himself, not a future owner.
Don't expect to get your money back,
"Bone Stock" Vettes are easier to sell, and may fetch more money than modified Vettes.

We all spend money on our vettes that we will never recoupe. We love the C-4 and they for the most part, not investments.

i like the stripes, but hate the paint job and the wheels. i love the engine, although for the corvette i think he went way too far with the performance mods; i agree with earlier posts in that this degree of modification actually ruins the car.

"90 percent complete"? What's missing besides the steering? Hate the paint and the wheels. I'd give him $1500, maybe.
