Default Last pics of my TA

Well I sold my TA today. Needed the money for the new ride and not enough room at the rental house for 4 cars (Damn weather is making building my house take forever)

So here are the last pics before the new owner picked it up. It was the only chance I had to get a pic of TA and my new project together ( the Z06)





I will miss it. But I could not pass up the chance on the Z06.

Yeah, I had two toys for about 4 days. Wish I could keep them both.

The Z06 is bone stock so I have to start building an LS engine all over again, should be fun. Nothing like blood, sweat, and beers.

It's not fair to judge a modified car to something bone stock, but your T/A has much more character than the C5, from all angles!
I guess I just have trouble moving on...

That's sad. I don't think I could get rid of mine for anything less than a C6Z but even then I'm not sure if I'd do it lol. Good luck with the new car!

$7500. The car had a waterdamage title when I got ahold of it. I pretty much got the car for free. I took a little loss, but even in the shape my TA was in people were still worried about the history. It pulled much harder than the Z06 does but will change this summer .

Thanks for comments on the TA I put alot of time into that car and plan to do the same with the new one.
