If it has transmission issues it most likely has been abused. I would pass on it. You can get one with around the same mileage with no issues for 19-21K at least around here.

What do you guys think of this deal? There is this guy that trades me a 1979 corvette all stock matching numbers in good condition, he will give me the vette and $1500 on top, do you think is a good deal or should I pass on it?

Pass if you want seomthing fast. If you don't care and want the older vette for looks go for it

Yeah, that is what holds me back, a 15 second car dosent sound too good

C3 is probably my favorite body style but I would only want one with an LSx swap. Keep looking around, there are deals to be had out there.

So what your saying is you wanna trade a ws6 cammed/full bolt ons with 70k miles for a regular c5 with 100k and 4k cash?
Hellllllllllllll no!
The only thing you should consider trading it for is a c5z or a c6. The c5 vettes imo are to common anyways. At least you stand out more in the ws6 and a bit more in a c5z&c6!

Z06 transmissions are pretty lame actually. 3rd gear in my Z06 went at 46k miles when it was bone stock. I didn't want anything to do with just fixing the issue and moving on because I had mods planned, so I spend the $2500 on the RPM transmission.

I just wouldn't assume that the guy beat the **** out of it, because it's a pretty common issue.

I've never heard of them going out like that.

Lol keep the WS6!!! Anything else than a C5 Z will be a downgrade. A C5 would be ok too. A base c5 vette is not any better than a fbody IMO, except for the rear end.
