Default Looking to Trade my 87 Gn for a corvette

I am looking to get into a vette...I would like to make a deal with my GN...I have cash to put in the deal,(Between 5k-10k)How much depends on your car.I will trade up,Down ,Or straight across.I would really like to stay closer to the 5k range,If Im trading Up.But if I really like your car,I don't mind coming up with some extra cash.These Gn's go up in value every year.And this is a nice one.

This car has mainly been a car show cruiser for the last few years...Not drag raced,But I don't think the car would have any trouble going deep into the 11's with a set of Drag radials on it,And maybe a splash of race Gas.Car would go into the 10's with a bigger turbo,I have a nice Polished cpt-66BB I could throw in on the deal also.More than enough turbo for the 10's if thats your thing.

This car has manual windows and locks...factory lightweight...Hardtop car.100k on the clock...Could pass for a 25k mile car.Car has ps/pb/cd player/All speakers upgraded/Tilt/...Interior is super nice..paint is very nice.Underneath is really clean..All new suspension,Body Bushings.

On to some of the mods...

62mm TB
Ported Intake
Champion GN1 Aluminum Heads
Scorpion Roller Rockers
Precision Te-44 Turbo (.63 ex housing) Instant spoolup.
Atr 208-201 Cam
trw Forged Pistons
Dutt neck Intercooler
55lb Injectors
Modded stock ecm to accept the low impedance Injectors
steel H beam rods
Stock crank cut .010/.010
ARP Rod bolts/Main bolts/Head bolts...And just about every bolt on the motor is ARP.
ATR 2800 stall Conv.
Trans rebuilt with new 10 vane pump,And atr shift kit
atr 3" stainless Downpipe with an external atr wastegate.
atr headers/crossover..Also stainless
atr 2.5" SS Pitbull exhaust
atr rear sway bar.

Engine was done by Reid's Performance Whitman,MA.

car was totally redone in 03-04...has about 2k miles on it since engine/trans/paint were done.Have the receipts for all the engine work,All the ATR parts bought($9500).

There is alot I am forgetting...I will update as I remember...Here are a few pics of the car...If anyone has any trade offers,Please email pics and a description of any mods,Mileage,And so on to..ShawnFarrell313@Comcast.net

I am willing to work with someone on a trade...Would prefer local,But I'm willing to drive to meet halfway within reason...I'm in NJ.If your looking for top Blue Book or Nada value for your car...That is Fine,All I ask is you give me the same for my car.I really have no set number in my head I want for the car...If the deal seems right,I'm ready to move on to my next toy.

Thanks,Shawn

Thanks Guys...

Sorry to the moderators of the board,I didn't look close enough to see that WTT cars couldn't go in the for sale section.To used to TurboBuick.com.

I am in no rush to get rid of it...Just figured I would throw up the ad to see what response it gets.The car will sell in a heartbeat on ebay.My last one was not as nice as this but close,It brought 17,500 in 3 days.I have never had a car last the entire auction on ebay.

I have gotten pictures of 2 cars mailed to me with no info attached..Whoever sent the pics...Please send the car info...Year,Mileage,Interior pics,Stick or auto,And a contact number.

Thanks again for the compliments....

Shawn

145 mph speedo too. Nice I have a GN, Turbo T and Z06 myself. Looking to maybe get rid of the GN sometime since I never drive it. Good luck with a nice car.

wish I had another GN to my collection, but if I come home with another car, I might be living in it if my wife gets her way.

So what is the minimum you would let the car go for? I was thinking of getting back in the game, but only if a steal hit me in the face.

So I guess you are not willing to sell the car to buy a Corvette?
