Your email probably won't be flooded with offers with that level of information. Perhaps you have some more details to share?

This is not a Corvette Challenge Car as Daniel researched it as totaled. That car was totaled so bad after the end of the season that the passenger was killed and the driver paralyzed. He was impaled by the driveshaft that came up through the tunnel. I know where some body parts of the Challenge Car are.

Maybe Rutherford drove that car, but it’s not the one he raced in the Pro Corvette Challenge. A real B9P will run between $30-47k and are very well documented to ensure these collector cars are not counterfeited.

The salvage title also makes this car worth near zero to any collector. If this car is a salvage title, I would recommend parting it out or selling it for the value of a salvage C4 with those miles, 4k?

Vette Guy 12-23-2018 01:16 AM

I’m not inferring that the car for sale has a bad title, rather that this car is not the car RPO B9P Corvette Challenge Car produced by Chevrolet . It may have some parts from the #99 Challenge Corvette, but that’s it.

Super chevy 12-23-2018 04:17 PM

Oh it is absoultly is the car and moter lol im glad your such an expert on my car lol It has a reassigned title have the car fax its was wrecked an put back together the alternator was broke from the wreck an welded back on the roll cage shifted a tad and the original fire system and tank and showing blue from under the yellow original mid america design sticker from the race itook off the over invoice stickers off because its mine seriously think they would take the roll cage out and put it in a different car nope

Vette Guy 12-23-2018 06:22 PM

Here’s a photo of the rear clip salvaged from the actual #99 Corvette Challenge Car. And no, they wouldn't try to salvage the cage, rather replicate it.

After the wreck young Chevrolet took the car to Kim Baker to clone it to the original state my car has many parts off the rutherford car and a challenge engine I got to speak with a fellow member today that worked for young at the time thanks for helping me get to the bottom of things

Vette Guy 12-25-2018 11:45 PM

No doubt you have a pretty neat race car with a very interesting history!

Floridasky 01-05-2019 10:21 PM

Totally worthless without posting up some photos.

SCCA VETTE 02-04-2019 11:51 AM

Is this still available and are there any pics of it anywhere? Did you ever determine a price?

Interesting thread to follow. I would be curious to see more details on the actual car for sale.
