Is this COOL????



I bought a Salvage 2003 Z06 with 85k miles, bone stock down to the Eagle F1's. Passenger seat is like new, driver's seat heavily worn. Has owners manual, looks untouched in the glovebox. Runs excellent, shifts well, all glass, A/C, Stereo, power everything works. Engine bay looks like 5000 miles.

Damage is to the driver's side, both airbags deployed (wingnut forgot to turn off passenger airbag, which is a switch in glovebox).

Tires are not worn on outside, nor any proof the car was used more than you'd use a Malibu.

OK, so what?

I got in it today to move it, so I can start to work on it, and the driver's seat smells STRONG of urine!

HAHAHAHA! At least it didn't smell like shit. Bet this was the last vette the owner ever drives!!! I've been in a few knarly crashes racing, but I never lost bladder control.

$5900. About $3000 worth of parts are unrepairable. Chassis looks good, but bent tierods/links. It drives. I need the engine for another project.

It's on the lift now. I'll see if can get some pics later.

Salvage title wrecks are a dime a dozen, but DO NOT negotiate at all. Figure out what it is worth to you and do not exceed it. They started at $12k, then $10, then $8, but I kept saying $5500. I pussed out and went to $5900, last offer.

www.copart.com . Get a business license if you don't have one. Most cars will only be sold to businesses.

Here's a local 2010 Z06 currently at $15k:

They have lots all over the USA. I recommend them.
