He Just Needed an Excuse…

CF member Hypntyz received a rough C4 for his thirtieth birthday that he proceeded to restore, rebuild and modify. When he got it, “it was almost ruined with 117k miles, [it had] flat-spotted tires and chrome-flaking [off of] ZR1 knockoff wheels, faded paint with yellow fiberglass showing, rotten interior, leaking windows and targa top, half dead digital dash, non functional radio, and [hadn’t] been driven in 4 or 5 years.”

He thought about replacing the engine, but decided to wait until major work was required. He got his wish in 2012 when the slushbox gave out while trying to pass a dump truck. Rather than just tossing a new tranny in the C4, he dumped the L98 and sought out an LS6. In spite of numerous wiring headaches and other problems, his perseverance was rewarded.
