99 Torch Red C5 117k miles- needs new steering rack
I have a 99 torch red C5 with 117,5xx miles. I bought it at 75K miles, the vast majority of mileage I put on it were highway and never brought to the track. I will know in a few days for sure but I believe it may need a new steering rack. The front fender could use a new coat of paint. Aside from this the rest of the car is in good shape and the motor is running strong. It has a tune, LS7 clutch, vararam, DTE brace, deep dish C5 wheels and Borla cat back. Any thoughts on a ballpark price?

Changing the rack on a C5 SUCKS, and a shop is going to charge a pretty good amount. Combined with needing a repaint on the fender, I would say that you're looking in the sub $10K range. $8500 in my market.
