Default Want to trade 2001 c5 vette for clean fbody or gto

I am seriously thinking about tradeing my 2001 black on black c5 corvette for a clean fbody or gto. I hate to do it but I want something with a back seat for my kids.
The car has right at 110,000 miles on it. Its an automatic with pretty much all options includeing heads up display. Interior is custom black leather with red stiching. A/C and every thing else works on the car. Tire have 50% or more tread on them. Only mods on the car are vararam intake and slp loud mouth exhaust. Paint is probly a 7.5 or 8 on a 1-10 scale because of rock chips and minor scratches and im pretty picky. Interior is a 9 out of 10 only because of the headliner other than that interior is perfect. I will try to get the head liner replaced also if time alows its like $70 if that.

Im looking to trade for a clean low mileage ss or ws6 that is nicely modded or maybe GTO. Not to crazy about GTO's so thats just a maybe. Looking for something preferably with forged motor with nice heads and cam set up and preferably 12 bolt or 9 inch. Prefer stalled auto but will look at a 6 speed. If I had to put a price on my car it would be $14500 cash. Please dont bother with lowball offers because im not even really looking to sell.

Here are some pics of the car.

Not really looking for any high mileage cars. Must be low mileage and well modded or ready to add cash to the deal.

Make sure, if you have not already done so, to make a post on Corvetteforum as I have seen several people wanting to trade nice f-bodies for C5's.

low mileage to me is under 70k. If it has more than that not interested in an even trade but might work something out with cash difference.

I know what you mean, I can only take them one at a time these days. But for the most part, it's rare that I have both kids and the wife is out. Usually I can just have her take the C4 (it's an auto) and can keep the SUV.

Yea if I dont find something pretty nice that I like I will just keep the vette and go ahead with the 408 and stall I had planned for it. I have plenty of other things to drive that will carry the whole family it would just be nice to have a toy every one could go some where in every now and then.

We're thinking along the same lines. I'm actually going to look at a '54 Chevy Bel Air Sedan tomorrow that needs a good bit of work, but could easily carry all of us. I think it would be fun to cruise around with the whole family.
