Default 1996 LT4 vette

Im looking for a decent, 'driver grade' LT4 vette. 80k+ miles, no accidents, good paint, something that has been kept up with that wouldnt need a whole lot of work...OR something needing an engine. Looking for something I can drive while I work on it, something I wont feel bad for playing with a bit.

I happen to have a bright aqua '95 auto car with 125k on it, but it needs work, and Id rather start with something closer to what I want. I would be willing to go in on a partial trade as well. Obviously, I would be still putting in a considerable amount of cash if we went that route.

Please, no tan interiors. Prefer gray or black. Id like to avoid a red car but will entertain the right one. No accident cars. Im located near Savannah GA.

Manual or auto? selective ride control Y/N? Location? Price? Those are my questions.

Gonna be putting my CE up for sale soon. It's in really good shape needs a lil work but nothing major. I've on to other hobbies and just don't have time.

Default Houston c4

There is a very very nice one on Craigslist in Houston. $10,800 with only 54000 on it. And it's a collector's edition. Red interior 6-speed lt4. Very nice car. If you contact the owner tell him Mike from Wisconsin recommended it. His name is Chris and his telephone number is 713-245-6878.

If that CE is as advertised it is a steal.

Amen to that. If I could get a quick sale on my 85 I'd be all over that. Besides a Grand Sport (I refuse to pay that kind of $$$ for a C4) that is my most desired Corvette.

Being Houston, I would have to get it really looked at for flood at that price. I know it says it wasn't but I'd still go in cautious. I can tell you that my wife's grandfather lives not far from there (maybe 2 miles) and he had 2 feet of water in his house with Harvey :-(

Run a carfax on it. Look for new carpet, under seats or even under carpet for evidence of water. A musty smell could also be water. Excessive corrosion of interior/dash bracketry. Also, alot of electrical problems could be expected with a flood car. Dirt under the car in odd places in excess is also a sign. (Waterline on the radiator for example)
