Car history:
I recently bought a new toy, so I will not have room for this one! I spent the last 2
years enjoying this ride and hope someone else will treat her with respect!

I bought the Vette from a member of the Corvette club of Chicago. He had
recently purchased another Corvette and similarly wanted it to be treated well.
Over the last 8 years, he and I have combined to put in over 20k in upgrades
while driving her less than 3k miles. This is completely customed out. Looks fantastic.

The interior is mint except a small tear on the side of the drivers seat. New in
1999, Door panels, carpet, seats. It drives better than new. The engine has less
than 3,000 miles. It is a Professionally built 350. The trans is also new with less
than 1,700 miles. Everything on the car mech. has been replaced. Winter of 2007
D & M Corvette in Downers Grove, IL put in a New heater blower motor, all
switches, and rebuilt and replaced both power door locks. In May 07 we installed
brand new Hooker Side mount headers with stainless steel mufflers. $1200. AND
Brand new 17" Gran Sport 17"x9.5" wheels with 275x40x17 Tires and Vette Brake
Products wheel adapters. $1600.

We have spent over 20K on upgrades the past 8 years.
I have all the receipts. The sum of all the parts is worth more than the car.
Hooker Sidepipes with Stainless steel mufffler inserts $1800.
Off set trailing arms,rear wheel bearings, Vette Brake Complete suspension
Ultimate Handling Package, Front Spredder Bar, $2000
Balanced 355 Small block Dart Heads,etc. $3800
Balanced trans $2000
Headlamps with extra Covers $700
17" wheels and tires, with Vette Brack Adapters $1600

I live in Chicago and only have room for one toy in the garage, I actually already
had this shipped to my friends performance shop in Cincinnati, OH last fall. I really
am trying to avoid the storage fees and don't want to just see her sit. This car
handles fantastic, it's fast, it's loud, it's hot. Complete custom headlights, Lemans
style, no longer being produced, with an extra set.

There are a few minor issues:
1. Drivers side window power is not working. Probably ground. If needed I can get
an estimate, it is at a performance shop right now anyhow.
2. There are a few paint chips in the front, at the last parking garage up here
someone bumped me. Not bad, but could use a touch up.
3. The front under body kit split, it's fiberglass and easily fixed.

This car is awesome. Turns every head, even in downtown Chicago, it gets more
looks than the porches and Ferrari's. It is a custom, loud street rod.
