sooo i got a new 'DD'
 
and freakin love it.....!


99 C5 Magnetic Red Metallic A4 74k miles. only mods are a hidden sub enclosure, Z06 grilles, tints, and one of those clear bras. i bought it un seen off ebay and the guy delivered it last night and i was shocked it was actually in really good shape, much better then i expected. it does need a tensioner pulley and a belt which i ordered from napa this morning. hopefully itll get plates this week :)

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

red's not your style though?!?!? :lol:

looks good, i'm sure you will have it to near perfect soon. gunna get some wheels for it? maybe f-body wheels for the vette since its usually the other way? :rofl:

best of luck with it though!

The Fixer 12-28-2009 04:53 PM

Holy crap, best of luck with it!!! Nice color, you don't see many like that at all!

Tru2Chevy 12-28-2009 04:58 PM

Nice....sight unseen would be scary though, unless you got a screaming deal.

Can't believe it's not black or white though. :)

Congrats on the pickup ....

So let me get this straight, the Vette and TA are Daily Drivers, and the thirdgen is your weekend car?

maroman88 12-28-2009 05:34 PM

my 91 Z28 was a similar red!

the TA is guna be up for sale shortly, and the thirdgen is my baby and stays in grandmas garage

How much? I'm looking for a C5...

maroman88 12-28-2009 06:04 PM

i paid 12k, it was a no reserve auction on ebay, its in much better shape then all of the $15-18k range cars i looked at

NJ Torque 12-28-2009 06:13 PM

That is a good deal...

I need to get out of F bodies too... I guess I'm getting too old. LOL.

MonmouthCtyAntz 12-28-2009 06:15 PM

Not bad I would have kept the TA though

Fast92RS 12-28-2009 06:27 PM

looks great. I wish I had one.

maroman88 12-28-2009 06:56 PM

while i do love the TA with a passion, and in my eyes it is the top of the Fbody scale, i always wanted a red corvette, and after only driving it around the block a few times u can see and feel the quality differance and it is night and day!

jin1481 12-28-2009 07:03 PM

is the TA a stick and when you thinking of putting it up?

maroman88 12-28-2009 07:14 PM

the TA is an A4 as well

Savage_Messiah 12-28-2009 11:51 PM

cause its clear.....:lol:.....its like 3m sticky clear tape that you cut off with the body gaps.

maroman88 12-29-2009 01:58 AM

lol it will stay red

the clear bra is the 3M kind, its been on the car for approx 5 years and needs to be changed. the price on them has come way down since i remember first hearing about them. the bumper is $107 and the hood headlights and mirrors kit is $98

maroman88 12-29-2009 04:04 PM

anyone know of any good corvette forums??
