Default Will sell or trade my MTI built 427 C5R Vert for a C5 & not just a Z06!

That's right, I will now consider trading my AWESOME MTI built, tuned and installed 427 C5R Z07 motor, the same motor that won the one lap of america race in 2003 (except my motor has never seen any N20), for the right C5 (stock or modded) plus cash or Depending if what year, color, mods (if any) mileage, will even consider trading straight up. I would consider all trades from verts, z06s to coupes. I have clean and clear title on the car and looking to make a deal happen and will give first choice and preference to LOCAL DEALS, where someone can drive their C5 to the greater chicago metro area to check each others car out and if a deal happens we can avoid delivery fees!!!

I prefer a Z06 but will consider any nice C5 and prefer manual tranny but will consider an auto also. ANYTHING could be fair game! Below is a link regarding a few recent photos and info: This car was dressed up to look like a race car in the photos SPECIFICALLY for race car exemption with emissions and the road race bar going into the front seat removes in 5 minutes with two bolts and the slicks and skinnines on the ccws were just put on 3 weeks ago for the photo. The car normally looks like a normal C5 vert except for the decals and until you here it, especially with the elec. exhaust dumps open (and yes the decals pull off in 5 minutes with hot water and a blow dryer, etc) and the car will come with professionally powder coated black Z06 rims, with excellent condition new NItto 315 drags on back and pilot sports on front.

This car has not been raced or beaten and been down the 1/4 mile ONLY ONE TIME and coming out of the hole very easy it ran 11.03 at 124, with its new MTI C5R 427 motor. The folks at MTI can verify that it has the $6,400 C5R block and can also verify this is one of the baddest N/A C5 and a Verts at that, in the county. As we speak the FLP LEVEL 5 tranny is being freshend up so it will be like a BRAND NEW TRANNY GOING in the car, the best that $ can buy.

Car has 39K miles on it and the only noticeable blemish on the car is a small 3 inch crack of the fiberglass right above the right rear fender (which is hardly noticable) and can be repaired for about 300 to $400.00.. Apparently, it appears to me that was strapped down on the dyno to tight during one of its dyno tune sessions. The car has a new be cool radiator and STAYS nice and COOL all summer long. Of course the $20,000 motor has been meticulously maintained and broken in by me with oil changes at 500 miles 1500 miles and every 1500 miles after that. The motor has approx. 5K miles on it with no broken valve springs, ever. The MOTOR has the BEST PARTS that $ can buy including JESSEL SS ROCKER ARMS and all ARP fasteners, etc.

The price to buy straight out is $37,500.00 AND I WILL NOT GIVE THIS CAR AWAY!!!! That means if you expect an even trade then your car needs to be worth $37,500 or I willl need cash added in to do the deal! Folks, just the drivetrain in this car goes for $20,000.00 and the car is insured for STATED VALUE via a professional appraisal from one of the most well know CORVETTE shops in the entire state of Illinois, although i certainly realize the car is not worth anything close to what it is insured, for, etc.

Their is nothing wrong with the car and the reason i am so motivated and aggressive about selling it or trading it is, b/c since i am not drag racing or road racing it anyways, and it has been a weekend highway driver and car show attraction with MAJOR WOW EFFECT, i am looking to move on to the future and want to put a pre-order on the new C6 Z06 The ccw drag package does not come with the car and have already been sold to a close local friend.

Also, even if your Z06/FRC is not modded i would consider trades plus cash for my BEAST and could even be up for an even swap depending on year, mileage, wheels, year, on an unmodded or modded Z06 or C5!!!
