1999 Triple Black convertible - MA **Lower Price**
Lowered price to $16,750. I REALLY need to move this one to make room for the replacement!! Make me an offer!!
I can't believe I'm doing this
In order for me to seriously be able to move on the Corvette I've always wanted, my Eleanor, I first need to sell my '99. I had someone local offer to buy it, before I knew my dream car was for sale, and I declined. It was his desire to buy mine, that made me start to think about it. With that said, I'm not in a position to HAVE to sell it, but if it does, then I can move forward with my dream.
Here's the details of mine:
Price: $16,750 (lowered 6/1/17) (lowered again 6/5/17)
1999 base convertible, triple black
Automatic
62,xxx miles (will go up slightly as cruising season is here)
Chuck CoW tuned!
Vararam CAI with all of about 500 miles on it
Corsa Xtreme axle back with all of about 500 miles on it
18x10.5 C5Z replicas, black with polished lip, Bridgestone Potenza's. Plenty of tread left. Bought used over the winter and assume to have about 5000 miles on them (500 from me)
New cross drilled and slotted rotors
New pads
painted front and rear calipers
new oil pressure sending unit
fresh oil and filter
Lloyd's floor and trunk mats
Z06 screens
various cosmetic items like rear letters, passenger air bag letters, steering wheel decal (C5 emblem)
I also have the original owners manual, pen, flashlight, etc.
Most of the receipts for repairs and maintenance too
Will also include a spare set of chrome C6 rep's. In the process of trying to put some tires on them (not new).
Now, that back story on the car. Original owner was from MA. I'm told he was the brother of a local Corvette restoration shop. Sadly he passed, and his brother took the car to sell from his shop. Second owner was from CT. Bought the car about 6 years ago with about 55k miles on it. Bone stock. Owned it for 5 years, put about 5k miles on it, and did a few repairs (belts, water pump, etc). Retired and moved to Florida. Sold it to me before he moved, last August (2016). I've since put about 2500 miles on it, and did all the recent mods/updates. the ONLY reason I'm putting it up for sale is because I've always wanted a 2003 Electron Blue. the perfect example of one has recently come on the market. After looking and waiting nearly 12+ years for one, I know they only come up once in a great while. I figure, this is my "once in a while".
Now, on with the pics. I can provide more pics or details if wanted.

Thought it was sold locally....until he asked his wife!
My window of opportunity is getting smaller on the other car. Reasonable offers will be entertained. It's a great car, lightly modified with bolt on's and a tune. Can leave it as is or return it to stock. The car gets plenty of compliments and is an absolute blast to drive. This one will NOT disappoint. Fly in and drive it home, anywhere! History and receipts are also available on the car.

Better get on it BAT I think know the EB car you are talking about and have my eye on it too. The EB has 30k miles correct? If you have your heart set on it I will keep looking so you can sell yours................BUT that color is growing on me. My first choice is white, then red, then EB.
Good luck with the sale.

^^^^^^LOL, I'll keep looking but that one definitely intrigued me. As I said it's not my first choice and I know how it is when you really want something............sooooo I really hope you can sell yours in a timely manner and get into the one you want. Honestly I was thinking it's a little far for me also being I am in PA.

Vararam CAI, Corsa Xtreme and the C5Z black wheels. Stock air box and exhaust would go back on (and tune returned to stock since it wouldn't run right with the tune in it now). Wheels would be the chrome C6 replicas. I can toss in the wagon wheels, but 2 of the 4 have cracks in them.
