Holy shit how did you spend 20k on ccw's and H/C?


Canadian pricing and shit fucking up lol. When I started working the job I am now I didn't have time to work on it so the shop did work on it too.

1000 - head work
600 - intake manifold/tb
2000 - cam stuff
1500 - clutch
2000 - full exhaust
600 - tune
1000 - fixing grounding issues after the work was completed/retune
1500 - coilovers
3500 - CCWs and tires
500 - 1st barrel crack and tire
500 - 2nd barrel crack and tire
3500 - input shafts and labor to replace
700 - starter and labor
700 - starter and labor
1000 - lifter set #2 with head gasket kit
500 - Alignments

Theres a lot of other miscellaneous shit, it was my daily and I would drive it. Not just highway either, a lot of city driving. I didn't sell it on the CCWs though, my buddy with the other c5z has them now. His car is now a widebody targa, soon to have an lsa blower setup. Should be interesting.

Thats crazy. We don't even get snow like that in Northern Michigan, and we average 100 inches a year here.

You neighbors to my north should be banned from having corvettes. Besides a little bit of road grime mine looks like brand new underneath.

You should see the bottom of my 30 year old stang, Michigan car at its finest, only a few holes rusted all the way through.

I can imagine. My 2000 crown vic has 430k miles and has never been stored inside. It doesn't have a spot of rust on it. I could never live up north. I'd have to take an Uber all winter or something.

Mine is the opposite..lol Stored outside all its life, but never driven in the winter. You still get salt residue in the spring and summer when it rains off the roads. It has 94k on it and rust on the bottom of the doors and everywhere underneath is at least surface rusted and some stuff is rusted through. Overall its mainly the floorboards that have some holes in them. It's just a fun little beater, I don't know how much I'm actually going to do to it.
