Hey Trevor. Sold 4 of my cars that I wasn't driving and didn't drive much last year. So it was time for another. Not a deep project as I don't have the patience, room, skill or desire. A Florida car that is not rusted but needs some cosmetic help from the Boca Raton sun fade.

thats great, i knew you were trying to sell some of them, should have figured you would buy something else!! I found a 66 ford thunderbird for $2000 i believe if your interested.?? Only problem i could find was a hole in the floor, other than that its really nice, beautifull interior too. I will post pics later.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to Norm & Candy who delivered my 92 Corvette convertible today all the way from Boca Raton Florida to Ingersoll Ontario (offical CP Capitol). Very well done Norm!

Good one Earl ! I really like these especially by 94 with the LT1 ! I hear they are a great buy down south

I believe this one is already an LT1 Ken. The Vettes had it before the Camaro and B body cars if I recall correctly.

That's right Carl. 92 is the 1st year, for Corvette. Then the rest a year later.

yes, I was typing 94 meaning 92, it was 91 that looked the same but had the L98

First off that is a pretty nice car Earl, I'd drive it. The guy we use for appraisals has one and he told me that these generation Vettes are great value for what you get so thumbs up.

Now I am not an Vette expert but I thought that this generation had the Killer LT5 as an option, it was a 405 HP beast as I recall. The reason I ask is two fold, would a Vette with the LT5 be more desireable and expensive and second the basic LT5 actually ended up powering Cadillacs in a slightly detuned state as the Northstar still in use today.

I am amazed at how many 88-94 corvettes are for sale in the Tampa area. They are cheaper than the 74-81 camaros in equal condition. I think they are the best buy in the car market right now.

Earl, thanks for the opportunity to earn some cash to pay the fuel bill from Florida to Michigan and your great comments. If you don't mind me using your thread, I would like to mention that I have both enclosed and open hauling available along with the means to move the non runners, projects, extra parts and I always try to give my fellow CP members the best deal possible.

By the way, I was contacted by I.C.E. They want the "illegal gecko" deported back to Florida.

Enjoy the vette!!

Thanks Ray. The LT5 is the ZR-! engine that was designerd by Lotus and built by Mercury Marine. It is very similar to the North* and yes the ZR-! models still bring a premium in price as they were the" King of the Hill" back then. Some owners (as with a lot of Corvette owners) tend to think that thier own particular car is always worth more than fair market value.

Anybody looking to have a non-op car hauled I would use Norm. I don't know where the gecko is, but the kitty's want to play with him... sometimes they play with their snacks.

I called this number and left a message. I have a car I sold going to the east coast so this might work out for everyone if he still needs it moved. That's assuming this car is going to Ontario?
Thanks, fore-speed
