Nice addition! I would throw an LS1 engine. Sorry shipping was such a hassle. Three years ago I bought a fourth gen Firebird sights unseen on Car Gurus and got lucky with shipping and the dealer description. I'm looking forward to this build. Maybe a C6 next...

buying cars on eBay is wild!

That car needs all the mods I did on mine put about 5k into it and good to go

Brass gear upgrade on the headlight motors will cure the noise when lights flip down.

Nice turn out! That was a beautiful black C5 with the flames.

got a pristne 100k mile 1 owner 1998 6 speed manual C5 Corvette in SD for a whopping 9k. Best 9k I've ever spent.

14k is average for a c5 not cheap at all

It took over seven minutes of watching this video for me to yell "Noooooooooo, it's an automatic. If you can't tell, I'm a stick shift guy. But I have to say that is a very unique color. I've never seen that color before and I like it.

sick

backlight for AC controls is a soldering issue. Look it up online. easy fix, its not a fuse.

As a small TH-camr I respect it keep it up

dang, i saw this one posted a bit ago i was looking at buying it too lmao great purchase!!

corvette looks beautiful

Headlight motor gear is bad. The issue with them not going down without turning lights on is due to LED bulbs. They just flat out dont work well with the stock housings. Brakes are luckily painfully easy like most cars on the C5. The AC display you will need to take out and resolder. I had to do it on mine. It is easy so no worries, takes longer to take the unit out of the dash than the actual fix. Center console needs to be kind of pulled out then up, stupid design. I had no other issues on my 2002 in your video other than the headlight LED issue and AC screen, but since mine is relatively low mileage, 48K when I bought it, I had "sitting" issues, like a small coolant leak from the water pump gaskets. These cars were expensive new, then were very cheap for a time, now they are starting to get more collectable and appreciated but many are used and abused. Good luck with the repairs!

great vid man i can tell this took a lot of effort

That paint is clean 🔥

I love corvettes.

I'm glad to see an update video. I've had to replace several headlight motors on my fourth gen Firebirds. That will fix the embarrassing noise. I've also replaced the center console lid. Good luck on the other fixes, and wait until the harmonica balancer needs replaced.

I could just park her in front of the house and look at her <3

Nice color

that corvette is beautiful. Its so fast

Your intro was a bit silly, but I love the C5. Is that the factory color or a wrap? Adjust the head lights and she's perfect.
