Here’s What’s Under All the Pretty Fiberglass of a Typical 1997 – 2004 C5 Corvette

Now here’s something you don’t see every day. While researching my next Illustrated Corvette Series story for VETTE Magazine about the 1996 LT4 Corvette engine, I happened upon this interesting item for sale on eBay by F•Parts. The listing is not an auction, it’s a Buy Now or Make Offer offer.

If you’re looking for a complete engine, drivetrain, suspension, chassis, wheels, brakes, and tires for some kind of street rod project, for just $5,999.00 or better, you can be off to a good start.

Of course, I can’t help but wonder, “What happened to the rest of the car???” Obviously, someone had a BAD DAY when their 2000 Corvette ended up in a salvage yard. Stuff happens, right. It’s been many months since this bare chassis went up for sale. You can’t help but wonder what’s become of it and it it’s now part of some really cool street rod of race car. We’ll never know. But it sure makes for an unusual sight!

 

Here’s a link to the listing is HERE.

Someone will definitely buy this soon. – Scott
