FS/FT: 2000 Z28 in VA 383 600+rwhp 16Kmi $19K

**danziger** · 07-09-2007, 09:05 AM

Hello folks! This is a feeling the waters thread as I am loathe to give up my baby, but my wife and I are trying to consolidate the vehicle fleet. Please don't bother unless you are serious and, since I don't need to sell the car, try not to lowball me too bad...
What we have here is a one-owner (me) 2000 Z28 that I ordered and picked up through Nimnicht Chevy in Jacksonville, FL. It is a "stripper" with only these options:
Rear-defroster
Hurst shifter
Monsoon stereo
Speed-rated tires
The car had less than 2 miles on it when picked up.

The Good:
She only has 16xxx miles on her and is garage-kept.
Roof clearcoat TSB performed and looks perfect.
Never involved in any accidents, clean title in my posession.
Doesn't burn oil and I use Mobil 1 every 1500mi (car sits a lot).

The Bad:
Couple of stone chips, scratches and swirls, but nothing remotely noticable.
Expired inspection sticker. I had it registered in FL, but got lazy. No cats, so it won't pass a visual/sniffer.
No back seat...sold it long ago.
Few marks in carpet and mounting holes for bottle.
Hood needs some prep and paint (I'm just lazy).
Could use a FAST 90/90 set-up...

The Sick:
Forged 383 with:
TEA 5.3 1.5 heads with 2.05 intake 1.60 exhaust
Forged Dimond pistons approximate compression 11.2 to 1 with current heads
Forged Eagle Rods 6.125 inch
Forged Eagle Crank
Rotating assembly balanced by Evans Automotive
Comp Cams XER 612/244/112 +4
Rollmaster Timing chain
TSP oil pump
Tuning done by Dyno Tuned Performance
466rwhp/455rwtq with a pretty flat curve

TNT F1 wet-kit (with only 3 bottles through it!):
Upgraded "Power-Ring"
Currently 100shot jets, but have jets for 75 & 150 also...
Bottle-heater
Purge through cowl (plume follows windshield angle)
MSD window-switch

SPEC 3 clutch (about 1800mi ago)
Hooker coated headers
"BorlaMouth" exhaust
ASP pulley
LS6 intake with P/P TB
30lb SVOs
SLP lid
Granatelli loop/brace
BMR PHR and LCAs
T&A diff cover
Strano Bilsteins
Eibach Sportlines
Suncoast Creations SS Hood
Painted GM SS 17x9s
New 275/40 Kumhos
Inline 255l/h pump
Pro 5.0 Shifter
FTRA

Audio:
Alpine H/U
Infinity 6.5s in doors and sail-panels (no hatch speakers)

I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch of stuff...

I just did a road-trip to FL and back and averaged about 25mpg. I wouldn't hesitate to drive to CA tomorrow...
A/C blows cold, car handles great and is a blast to drive.
Located in Chesapeake, VA 23323 $19,000 OBO

I'd be willing to trade + cash for the right stock C5 or take a pristine late-model Caddy + cash

It's THAT clean guys and gals... Here's a comment from my local board (name witheld to protect the innocent):

"I absolutely can not believe you are even considering selling that thing! LOL, now what do you have planned?
I swear there must have been nights you slept in that thing!
Did you ever even bring it to the track?

This is one very, very nice car for someone that has been extremely well built and very well taken care of for a price lower than what people have been asking for nearly stock ss's.
I seriously wish I didn't have so many vehicles right now. It is not easy to find one with that few miles, much less in that condition or that built.

Good luck Ben, really sorry to see you get rid of it."

Does it have a 12 bolt or 9 inch rear in it?

Would you believe the stock 10-bolt is still alive under there? The car has never seen a sticky tire...
My wife is gonna be mad when she finds out we are keeping the Z28 AND getting another Vette! Let's call this a "Save Ben from Getting Beat Up Sale!"...
