I sold my sons 1992 corvette, a while ago
viewtopic.php?f=66&t=9767&p=37077&hilit=sons+1992#p37077
the main reason was I had no funds I could spare to work on the car and my son showed ZERO interest or desire to work on or maintain the car, or help out or contribute to its up keep or rebuilding it!
now a week or so later I get a call from a neighbor who had his 1993 corvette catch fire in his garage, he put the fire that started out because he had a garden hose handy and was working on the car at the time an electrical short started the fire, but he said hes now selling the parts as most of the front 1/3rd of the cars crispy burnt trash.
he had the vette up on jack stands with the tires off and the engine out, at the time , and the fire was the result of him accidentally turning on the fuel pump and an open fuel line pumping fuel onto the wiring, luckily only the vette took the majority of the damage, and he saved the drive train, but has some interior parts for sale.
I,m always sorry to hear about shop fires but the owner stated he saved the tires suspension and drive train so hes not all that upset.
