Vehicle Description

Testing the waters. I have a 1978 Corvette that I have been slowly upgrading, but with an infant daughter, it is just collecting dust now. The car itself has under 60k miles on the chassis. The motor is a rebuilt cast iron 5.3 LM7 LS engine. Has the Elgin “Sloppy” stage 1 cam, trunion upgrade, completely rebuilt heads with comp cam .600” lift springs. The entire engine was gone through to be a reliable 400hp engine. Transmission is a 4L65e with a 2500 stall converter and HD rebuild kit inside. Also added the transgo shift kit in the valve body. I have installed new carpet inside with custom rewrapped Fiero seats from Mr. Mikes along with new door cards. The engine and trans is in and fuel is partially plumbed. I have all the parts to complete this build except for the ECU and harness (I was going to get the Holley Terminator X MAX kit for a plug and play setup) and the coolant hoses. I have a complete exhaust and header kit from Central Corvette designed specifically for LS swapped C3 corvettes. I have a new dash pad and led gauges in blue to match the black and blue interior look. Like I said, I have all the parts to get it done minus the computer and harness. NOTE: THIS IS A ROLLER PROJECT. YOU WILL NEED TO BRING A TRAILER.

At this point I just want to recoup the cost in parts. The engine, transmission, and exhaust alone total $12,500. Not to mention the interior upholstery.

Price is OBO. Will consider trade for newer side by side/UTV or compact residential tractor similar to a Kubota LX or MX series tractor.

Texts and emails preferred.
