The previous owner sent the car back to Callaway Cars and LPE for work. Did I mention it is very fast!

Thank you guys!

The car draws attention wherever it goes. I have taken it on the Skyline Cruise and other CF SE trips/dinners. It is a SHARP car for sure!

With an AeroBody, the car would have an asking price of AT LEAST $10k higher Thanks for looking. It is one heck of a car!

Steve, thanks for asking

The automatic transmission is a 700r4 built by (Carl) Rossler Transmissions in Girard (Youngstown), Ohio. The shop (LPE) that did the work, had Rossler do the work as show on one of the invoice pages. They do ALL of Lingenfelter's auto transmission work (for decades) Their website is www.rosslertrans.com

Here is the end page of the invoice from when the past owner had the engine work done. If it could be ported, it is

I have another invoice from the fall of 2005 where I had Callaway Cars go through the car, replacing anything under the hood they felt needed to be done, amongst other details. That invoice was something in the neighborhood of $8k and was done within ~ one thousand miles.

If you have any other questions about the car, just say the word, thanks.

Also, just to clarify, this car was originally a six-speed Car. That is why in the pictures, you will see sport seats and select ride. Neither would have been offered on an automatic Corvette in 1989.

For the price I am asking, I am including the black label ZF6 transmission, and related major driveline components. I have the pedal cage and the shifter console. This work was ALL DONE by Lingenfelter's shop and is done to a very high degree of standards.


Did I mention that this Callaway is QUICK!

You did indeed. How quick? 10 second car? 11 second car? Why is the original motor not in the car? What is the redline on the current motor? What is the stall on the tranny? Does the snap off the shifts nice and quick? Max boost? I love this car btw - if it was an aerobody, I'd be cutting you a check!

Dont hit him too hard into the boards with that check.

Dwight, Why dont you buy it, and sell it to me in roughly 3 yrs. Plz.

Sounds like the o.e. motor is in a crate.

I'm seriously interested in this car! She is a beaut - but more details are needed! As for resale - don't count on it!
