I have a 2000 Z28 with plenty of mods. I'm pretty sure the engine is hosed because of a failed oil pump (I'm in the process of replacing it now). I have a moser 12-bolt, nice wheels and tires. I'd obviously like to get the most money out of it as possible.

Should I part out the car, or somehow sell a non-running vehicle? I've never done this before, so any suggestions are appreciated.

I would try selling the car as is....and then if nothing happens try parting it out. Good luck on your sale.

Fix it, you can get a lot more for a running vehicle

Update... its fixed. I replaced the oil pump and its running good. I think I averted a disaster here.

same thing happened to my friend's GTO

still never understood how a perfectly good running oil pump goes bad.

how did you know the oil pump was bad in the first place?

The oil pressure gauge was acting wacky, and then flat-lining. So first thing I did was replace the pump.

I have a built 347 long block I'll sell. That will take care of your issues, plus make good use of that 12 bolt

Oil pump seal to pickup tube or a sticky relife valve due to tarnish buildup. Either way, the lower end is most likely hosed. Replace the shortblock and enjoy the car. Or replace the shortbock and sell the car. Or just sell it as it. No reason to part the car as if it was totaled out when all it needs is a motor.
