 I had to pull the listing due to an error. Some how my buy it now price disappeared off the auction. I appologize to any one watching the auction.

You won't find a tighter driving C4. I've driven this car to WV the past three years for a car show. Over 800 miles round trip each time without a problem. The whole drivetrain was rebuilt or replaced approx. 12,000 mile ago. The suspension and brakes have been redone and upgraded. It was inspected by the National Street Rod Association 2 years ago, and passed with flying colors. The car is not perfect, but represents itself very well. I do show it at local shows and cruise ins, but it really needs painted. 5-10 footer. The interior looks good except for the carpet in the hatch area is getting thin. Everything works including the cruise. The AC works but has never been converted to the new freon. I charged it a couple times with some R-12 I had, but it would leak out after about a year. I couldn't locate the leak, but I've never took it anywhere to have it checked.

Here is a list of things that have been done:    

ENGINE: 1988 roller cam 350 out of a Trans Am(had 12,000 original miles on the engine). Bored .030 to make it 355 CU.In. Stock crank and rods. Keith Black 9.5:1 flat-top pistons. (9.8:1 Compression ratio).Stock heads ground for miloden stainless 2.02/1.60 valves. Comp Cams roller camshaft (dur .212 int./.218 exh.@.050--.488/.495 lift) Comp. Cams matching double valve springs, pushrods, locks and retainers. Comp cams 1.52 self aligning roller rockers. All bolts used in the engine and trans. are ARP including head studs. Edelbrock high flow runner tubes (plenum and intake is port matched)BBK 52 mm throttle body. Accel 30 lb. injectors. Accel billet distributor.Taylor wires. MSD 6AL box tucked in the nose. Mallory super coil. Custom computer chip from Motorvation.K&N air and oil filter always.Miloden oil pan, high volume oil pump, and timing cover. Air pump eliminator. Headers and real dual exhaust with muffler eliminators. The computer itself is new as well as all the sensors on the engine. New alternator and starter. Optima Red Top battery. Last trip I had it on it averaged 28-32 MPG on the highway. Has 80lbs of oil pressure cold. Drops to high 60's-low 70's at idle once warmed up. Motor runs cool even on the hottest days. Never a overheating problem. The original engine goes with this car. It had 98,000 when removed, and ran fine. Smoked a little out the right bank.

TRANS: stock 700R4 with B&M rebuild kit, transpak with shift kit and minor valve body mods, summit deep aluminum pan(2 extra qts.), TCI 168 tooth flexplate, TCI street fighter 2800 stall, B&M trick shift fluid.

SUSPENSION: All bushings were replaced with poly urethane. Added VBP adjustable racing rear lower strut rods. VBP much larger front and rear sway bars. KYB shocks painted to match the theme. All U-joints have been replaced in both half shafts and the driveshaft. Rear hub assemblies were replaced.

BRAKES: Drilled and slotted rotors, new pads all the way around, stainless steel braided caliper hoses, earls speed bleeders, painted stock calipers.

WHEELS: ZR-1 replica wheels. 9.5x17 in the front 11x17 in the rear. New Sumitomo tires on all.

OTHER MODS: As you can see, the car also has vertical door kits that also still open regularly. There is 6 strobe lights in the car. One in each corner clear marker light and one in each back-up light. It has a nice clarion CD player, Coustic amp, and audiobahn speakers in the door. Still using the factory bose speakers in the rear. Car is as clean underneath as it is on top. Seats have custom covers made out of neoprene.(wetsuit material) Fits really nice and doesn't look like covers. Dash has no cracks anywhere. All guages work properly as well as the information center. I also have 14k Gold plated front and rear emblems and rear CORVETTE script for the car still in the box. I was waiting until I got it painted to put them on. 

BAD: Like I stated above, it really needs painted. Paint has scratches, water spots etc. Some decent size chips on the nose that has been touched up. Couple stress cracks in the paint on the rear. Whoever put the spoiler on, didn't prep it right and the paint is bubbled on it. No fiberglass damage though. Drivers side window has scratches on it and is slow going up with the door closed. It was like that when I bought it. Carpet in the hatch area is thin like stated above. AC needs converted and charged. Still needs weatherstripping on the targa top.(Rest has been replaced including the hatch) Passenger side door panel looks pretty good, but the plastic backing is cracked.(You can't tell by looking at it) The drivers side was real bad, and it has been replaced with a new one.

MAY TAKE INTERESTING TRADE. BUT NO MOTORCYCLES, BOATS, WIVES, ETC. ONLY CARS OR POSSIBLY A OLD TRUCK(NO 4-WHEEL DRIVES), BUT PREFER CARS. REALLY INTERESTED IN A PROSTREET CAR!


On Aug-19-09 at 12:24:41 PDT, seller added the following information:

I noticed in some of the interior pictures that the door panels look blue. They are actually graphite. The digital camera is making them look blue. Plus, I appologize for not vacuming out the front before I took the pictures. I took them kinda quick.
