I have a guy offering basically $11k. Figured I'd offer it to anyone here for the same price before I let it go. He's calling me tomorrow around noon (EST). Send me an email at trackbird (at) gmail dot com

Thanks!

So is it going?

I guess it's a bad time to sell a truck. The only thing I could think that would hurt the sale is the fact that it's 2wd.

Not yet. I might just take it up to Carmax (in a few minutes). I'm not renewing the tags, so I may as well dump it. It's getting to be a little like the Camaro. My mind is made up to get rid of it and now I'm less and less worried about what it's worth vs. what I can get out of it. I'm starting to consider dumping it for anything above payoff to get rid of the payment and insurance every month (and free up space in the driveway). However, I've found two C4 ZR1's that are quite reasonably priced (one local, one in Texas) and I considered taking it across town to talk about a trade. They also have a 2004 Z06 (sadly it's the commoretive edition with the grey stripes...I'd rather have it in just the blue) on the lot with only a few thousand miles on it. But my significant other wants to see the engine running in the Corvette now that she helped put it together. So, I'm keeping the '91 and might just buy another one. Not sure which one is getting the snow tires (or the spot in the garage) for winter duty, but I'll sort that out later. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)



I like 2wd trucks for towing. I particularly like that they get better fuel mileage and you can pull the transmission easily. Others may not agree, but I actually bought a 2wd on purpose. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I love my manual locking hubs for that reason. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

SOLD!!!

And replaced with ?????

Yeah which 'Vette ?

Nothing yet. I dumped it at Carmax and am currently car payment free. I'll be dropping the insurance in a bit and enjoying saving about $500 a month (payment, insurance, some fuel, etc). So, my daily driver is the '91 Corvette (though my GF just found me a 2003 Z06 with 42k miles for under $25k) and I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet...if anything.

As a side note, last night (when I returned home from selling it) I received an email from my buyer from Sunday restating his offer. So, I guess I "gave away" a grand. A bird in the hand and all that....

Dear god, don't get a C4 ZR1. I like C4's way too much, but dealing with the ZR1 stuff seems like a pain in the ass. 16 injectors, 2 fuel pumps, dual runner intake, blah blah blah.

I went and drove one last night. I think it was broken. It was a '91 that rolled 28,000 as I backed out of the parking spot. It made no torque and no HP. It didn't want to spin the tires (not that I tried, but no low end grunt) and it didn't pull on top. I suspect the second set of butterflies didn't open. I had the valet key and neither position seemed to do anything different. So, nice clean car...but it's either broken or one more of the supercar hero's of my youth has crumbled before my eyes.

Besides, my engine should make more than 405 HP (yes, the '91 ZR1 was only a 375 hp car) and I already own it. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
