they revised some of the mounting points, used slightly different materials... incremental changes - the important take-away from this is to avoid the 84/early 85 suspensions.
that sold a couple weeks ago for 4k. If you look around, you can find C4s without their motor or trans from cheap cheap... how cheap? a friend wanted to give me the suspension from an 84 (no, 87 up is the better set up), or I could have bought an 89 with wiring problems and motor problems for $1250. No need to go all Chad on the C4 to get a donor.
just tryin to help a couple of brothers out...I do not know what components Dave needs, so a package deal might be of assistance what with the new tires and all! also a lot closer to the bayou to pick up!

it's not a bad idea to pick up a running, driving car - saves the surprises later when you're trying to figure out whether it's worn components or faulty fab work that caused a driveability problem.
Thanks guys for all the tips, I can see I have much research yet to do, but keep those suggestions coming. Hope to actually get started on this next month.

I'm looking for a 1994 to 1996 vette now. Anyone see's or knows of a good donor car let me know.
watch the AIA auctions - they now allow private parties to bid on lots of stuff; and those Corvettes, especially wrecked ones, are not well-loved. Otherwise, make a deal with a wrecking yard, you pay for an identified Corvette, you pull your parts off it and return it to them when you're done scavenging.
Jim Meyer has bolt in rack and pinion as well as alot of good stuff.. All stuff you can find Anywhere, USA.. If you happen to break down.. Look his website over, you might change your mind....
i stopped at Schwartz performance on the power tour and they had some incredible cars . i believe they said the chassis's were about $10,000 complete and they sure were pretty
Al I have to add is, if anyone wants to sell the bolt on rocker panels let me know. I'd love to take of my hidious ground effects that someone put on in their place.
My son in law is parting out an '87 Vette presently. He bought it as a driver and drove it home. Had a salvage title, so he decided to just sell all the parts. Probably too far away to make a sensible purchase for you, as he's in San Diego, Ca.
