1997 Z28 M6 Mystic Teal Metallic
I ordered this car in March 1997 and planned on never selling it. I'm buying a business and liquidating everything that isn't bolted down... including my baby that I said I'd never sell.
A few highlights, the car has no t-tops, I didn't want to give up structural rigidity. I had been building this car to "do it all". It's balanced to drive on the road, road course, or drag strip. The drive train is setup to support 1,000, though the motor never got past 400. It's Mystic Teal Metallic, looks green in some light and blue in others. Has been garaged kept it's entire life, babied with Zaino products, covered a majority of the last 10 years... you'll have to see it to believe the condition. I'll include all documentation (including window sticker, all receipts, service records) a front end bra, car cover, a few extra oil filters, etc.
The Good:
There are so many other little things that I'm not including, SLP Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator, Comp Cams "R" Series Lifters, hardened push rods, new OEM water pump, shift light hidden in vent, JLA Stealthbox, Alpine headunit and EQ, 30th Anniversary mats, etc.
The Bad:
As I mentioned, I never planned on selling so it is not currently in a condition I'd sell it in (I would fix the head gasket leak, recharge the A/C, etc). Given that it is not in perfect working order, I'm offering this for sale at $4,000. The heads and rear end alone are worth more than that, option 2 would be to part it out if I can't get my asking price. I hate to think of it, but someone could part this out easily if they felt so inclined.
A couple of quick pictures I just snapped, I'll post additional pictures after I clean it up this weekend.

Known Issues:
Developed a passenger side head gasket leak recently. New top end put on in 2012, only a thousand miles or so since then. Last fall I noticed it smoked a little bit as I let it warm up before taking out for a drive. I put it back in the garage and it sat for a month or two. Next time I started it, it smoked noticeably more than the first time I noticed it and it hasnt moved since.
Stock right rear caliper e-brake cable ear broke off. Replaced with a Dorman aftermarket unit, have not yet gotten e-brake cable reconnected properly
It had been getting harder and harder to get into 5th gear. If RPMs are matched well, it slides right in. Otherwise it requires a little more force. Will not downshift from 6th to 5th.
Starter has a loud click when first engaged. Its new, not sure if its expected but it seems different so I wanted to mention it.
Noteworthy:
It has been garaged kept every day of its life except for one year (1999), a majority of the last 10 years or so has been covered in the garage
I will include all documentation I have with it, service records, receipts, etc.
