OK guys I know this is an odd one but figured it was worth a shot.

I've got me Vette up for sale (also listed on carsales), and I've been searching for a nice R32 gts-t as a daily driver so figured why not post something here.

Car is currently on carsales for $24,000 but I'm negotatble especially for SAU members.

Car is located in Bayswater VIC.

Details:

1975 L82 Corvette Stingray. 350 v8, 4 speed manual. Car was in storage for winter and only brought out in november to get club registered for summer.

A lot of work has been done to make this car drive better than new.

All suspension bushes, bearings & joints replaced with new urethane ones and full suspension rebuilt and alignment.

All brakes rebuilt with new Al ORing style pistons and new seals.

New pads & rotors have been machined.

New stainless steel park brake mechanism & shoes

New wiper & washer motors

New targa & window seals.

New ADR compliant seat belts

New RH Dip Head lights

All fluids, filters & plugs recently changed.

Car is very original and a stock L82 car. Its not numbers matching, engine was replaced in the US in 2009 with a GM create motor but the motor is a genuine L82 engine. So heads, manifolds, carbi and cam are correct. Motor is very fresh, responds well and starts first time every time. Exhaust is standard 2-1-2 system. It has correct induction hood and corresponding air cleaner setup. The 4 speed manual makes the car much nicer than an auto to drive and gives the true sports car experience. Gear box feels great, synchros are all strong and the clutch was replaced with the new engine. Car features adjustable tilt & length steering column, air conditioning and power steering. Interior is in fantastic condition with new carpet and seats fitted in the US. Body is brilliant, as expected for fibre glass, with only some very minor chips and scratches. Original Rally Wheels are in mint condition and are fitted with near new tyres. Import approval documents provided and a RWC can be arrange as part of sale if required (passed one in November for the club registration). Air conditioning needs re-gassing. Drives like a dream and is certainly a head turner.

Its no 300kw skyline but it sure does cruise well!

I'd be interested in swaps for a R32 GTS-t with some cash my way. Could be convinced to do the same for the right R33 GTS-t or R34 GT-t. Not sure if I want a GTR but let me know what you got and if your keen. If I don't get any interest by end of March when the good weather ends she'll be going back into storage for winter again.

Cheers!

Update:

New stainless steel flex fan and chrome rocker covers fitted (kept the original fan & rocker covers).

New aluminum radiator about to be fitted. Also have a brand new set of stainless steel extractors and gaskets that I may fit before the end of the month.

update:

ratiator fitted. Looking to install the extractors next weekend.

If car is not sold/swapped by the end of March it will be going back into storage for winter.

    • Howdy all,   I had my rb25det S2 rebuilt and finally started it today but have run into a few issues  Engine sounds like a a diesel easiest way to summarise like small ticking, gets louder when revs are slightly adjusted  The engine builder repainted the engine cover leaving no where for me to go off with lining up the CAS so have it as central as possible so not sure it that could be affecting it?, changed the gearbox fluid too but won’t seem to go into gear when running, and only 1 to 4 when off having a hard time finding 5th and reverse anyone got any ideas or a base for me to start off? much appreciated 
    • Well, no. It's an 023, which is pretty similar to an 040. Although it is hard to tell from the specs, as given.
    • Hmm. Maybe the (other thing I forgot about!) Haltech removes at least some, if not all, of the problem I described. I guess there is still the possibility of getting it wrong if the AC is set up/wired up for the Haltech as if it was in an R34 (simply because it's on a Neo), and that's playing foul with the R32 AC computer.
