Just giving you guys an update. Paul W. and I spent yesterday in freezing rain getting the car onto a UHaul trailer. Unfortunately the weather in Chicago and time kept us from getting it up to Pete's. And weather today sucks worse. We're shooting for tomorrow or latest by Tuesday. Then I can start to fill some parts requests. I'll do better once we get it to my garage also. I appreciate your patience.

I hate to say it but "i told you so" today makes yesterday look like a summer day.
Just stick it in 4 wheel drive and go slow,i'm waiting.

Pete

Some of you may already know that I had the unfortunate experience of crashing my car at the Corvette Challenge on Oct. 30. Why it happened we are not exactly sure. Luckily I was the only one on the track at the time so no other cars were involved. Car was running well and I had just dynotuned it to producing just under 400rwhp with ported top end. I hit second gear and it started drifting towards the left hand wall hitting with the driver's rear corner then went across 2 lanes bouncing into the guardrail on the right.
The timeslip had me moving at 89.99mph through the 1/8mile traps when this all started to happen. Indications seem to be that frame may not be bent but it would need a frame machine to verify. However, the fiberglass damage and paint makes it prohibitive to repairing for me. Someone else may think otherwise. If I was Jay Leno, no problem. In any case, car went out as a warrior and I got away without anything more than a sore back muscle for a month.
So the plan is to part #474 out. It had 51K on the odometer. Drivetrain will be swapped into a ZR I just bought 92 #458, Black Rose/Black. My FBI buddies are going to give me a hand doing this transition.
Rather than list parts for sale, just list me what you're looking for. I also have additional spare parts that I will be selling as well.
I can tell you hood is shot, but some driver's side panels are good, interior good (Gray), electronics good. I'll be assessing more as I get car here.
Drivetrain from #458 will be for sale and it is a very driveable car in good condition. I'll post pics as we go.

It happens. the important thing is it didn't detour you much and your okay. Carry on.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Yes. Having looked at it both driver and pass side are ok.
As an update, car is now in my garage so I'm ready for shipping orders when I receive the check
