FS or FT 86 Z28 w/ 36,000 original miles 06 corvette yellow
i picked up this car about a 6 or 7 months ago. i bought the car from a guy who bought it from the original owner. i was told the car has 35,000 original miles on it. the story behind this is that the brakes went out and the owner could not identify the problem. so they parked it, and it sat outside for a good while. when i got it the car ran and i actually drove it home. i replace a bunch of parts on the car and i have now alot more money in the car then i planned, i have a 67 camaro rs i am building now and i need to sell this car to fund the drivetrain of that car.
parts i replaced:
*new water pump
*new radiator and new upper and lower hoses
*new thermostat
*new battery
*new starter
*new plugs cut to fit accell 8mm plug wires, autolite platnum plugs, and new cap and rotor button
*new gates belts
*new wipers
*flowmaster exhaust system
*headers and y-pipe( i would redo the y-pipe, it came with the car)
*replaced the fuel tank and sending unit
*new fuel pump
*new brake rotors and pads on the front (back need to be done)
*new tps and iac sensors
*replaced the fuel rail,all injectors, and fuel pressure regulator
*new air filters and fuel filter
*pulled the entire interior and professionally cleaned it all. also painted the plastics black and it all looks really good. the only thing i have left to do is recover the headliner but it has an overhead console with a flashlight and everything.
*cd player
*i just tore down the intake and i repainted everything and installed all new intake gaskets and valve cover gaskets.
*new gm front bumper cover
*lowered and i just had the alignment done
*tinted front turnsignals and sidemarkers
i am sure i am missing alot of stuff but the car has alot of options. it is a 305tpi automatic car, it hass four wheel disc brakes, power windows and hatch. it used to be white with gold ground effects i primered the car and did the body work it is now 06 corvette velocity yellow. i have been daily driving the car for the past 3 months. i am asking $5000 firm.
couple of teasers. the car was painted tues. i cant wash it for two weeks, it is filthy but it looks really good. i still have to put the louvers on the hood and retint the front parking lights and paint the headlight buckets, also i have the camaro grill that goes in there.

they are painted over... i have not had any time to do anything to the car since paint... there are obviously things wrong with it and still things that havent been put back on. i have the louvers i have the grill and i am gonna paint the headlight buckets. i tinted the turn signals and they matched the black primer, and i didnt have time to pull them out so they were painted over, the painter still had sanding work to do and when i started taping the car off myself he told me to stop wasting my time b/c he was going to pull it off anyways.. it is not a 3000 paint job it is a get it and get out job. some orange peel but it looks great in my opinion i have had several several comments on the paint already and i have drove it in town once. the turn signals i just have to sand down and retint no big deal. they will be just like the sidemarkers. the wheels do not come with the car, i am redoing the stock z28 wheels in black and they have new tires on them. the interior is tan and all the plastics are black, i pulled the entire interior and steam cleaned all of the carpet and the seats, i also repainted all the plastics black. i am going to tint the car next week and i still have to recover the headliner. the car is in very awesome condition i just have to put the finishing touches on it and it will be ready. these pics are just teasers i will get the end results pictures early next week.
the trades i am interested in are pretty much anything just run it by me. idealy i want an iroc vert but will consider any 3rd gen vert and also interested in cbr 600's or any other kind of street bike.
if anyone is interested in buying the car this weekend i will take 4500 before i do the extra work to it. after that 5000 firm no budging. i have plenty of money in it and 5000 is the lowest i will take just trying to make someone a deal on a very well put together car. i built my iroc from the ground up and this one is done just right, without all the guess work of my first build. everything was done right.
if you want to get ahold of me asap give me a call 478-320-8917 i am working all weekend so if i dont answer leave a message i will call back asap. it will be alot easier to describe the car over the phone so please dont hesitate call me, thanks mike.
