parting out 90 with 179 miles

[A1990]

Having parted out a ZR-1 before, you know the value of the parts. I don't think that you can expect much more than that for your low mile car. I think in today's economics, you will move 20K in parts easy and be left with the rest.

If you need cash and are experienced with the whole tear down, pricing, shipping, etc, buy the basket case 91 and sell the same parts everyone is asking about in this post and make some $$$

Everyone here is looking or a deal, not to make you money.

I just saw this post

Please tell me your phuking joking.

If Not

You my friend have lost your phuking mind

Since $32k is the lowest you were offered why not give Barrett/Jackson, Mecum Auctions, Bloomington Gold or Carlisle a try.

I'll take the air in the tyres, but only if it's still the original BG air.

Wow....floored, if I had the cash I would buy it. How about running in through BJ would be worth the risk. Part this car would be wrong on many levels, but not my car. How about we get 39 investors with $1K each we run it through BJ and either take our lumps or split the extra cash......would be interesting. I would be in for a grand.

Better yet, we underwrite the variance in the sale. If the car sells for less we cover the variance, if it goes for more than your investment we all split the $.

It is your ZR-1 and you can do what you want with it. However it dawned on me that you might not have tried all the different avenues available to you in selling it.
Aside from the auctions mentioned, have you used any auto/Corvette brokers? I sold a Corvette overseas via a broker.

For that matter, why not think outside the box and raffle it off. You could sell 100 tickets for say $400.00 and make $40k that way. I think a decent amount of people would be willing to take those odds of winning for a chance to win a showroom ZR-1.

Heres hoping you find an alternative to parting it out.

It's called BJ, where smoke and mirrors are involved. And of course drunk people being persuaded into buying.
