Just "found" a stock red 1999 C5 5.7L Vette convertible w/only 34k miles (supposedly only 1 owner) in my area that I'm going 2 ck out. Only "problem" is that it's an auto but I can live w/that.

Will trade in my red 2002 MR2 Spyder for it if it's in good shape w/service records if I can get it for $10k net. Will report back later if I do

That corvette looks nice. It looks like the bumper hood and headlight are a bit off in alignment. It looks really sweet overall though. Once you go in there they are gonna try and sucker you into some type of weird deal. Those buy sell trade place are always a trip. GL

Looks like it has TechArt bumperettes that haven't been painted.
Is it silver? I can't tell.
Good deal regardless.

...and it’s air cooled!
Id like to have one, but this one is way too much for me. Jake recently sold one on BAT and it was almost affordable. Luckily for my wife, I know I don’t have a place to park it.

Agreed... Oil change (and analysis) and a good clean up of the car (to include polishing the headlights to new glory) would immediately add thousands to the value of that car... Convertible with hard-top included is a nice package. Would be nice to see the build codes on that one...

There's no demand for these cars here...The same ones sit on the market for years. The seats are trashed, the oil's (M1) been changed every 5K but who knows how long it takes to reach 5K on an island? Obviously not a daily driver.
