Wow a C4 with a working digi-dash for under 5? Impressive

And now, twin turbos. Don't argue, just do it.

I’ll be damned. A working digital dash.

Are these switches to change what information the dash displays?

That’s crazy cheap, nice find. What are your plans for it?

Wow! That’s a sweet Vette! I’ve always loved the C4. Here is my beef with that car (and many other GM products) I hate wheel patterns that go clockwise on one side of the car and counterclockwise on the other side. I HATE IT.

In case the passenger forgot what car they were in, I guess.

Nice! Good car, good deal, looking forward to more of your posts. Nice pictures as well.

What about the tires, are they old? They look really good but hard to tell from the photos.

I wish I could find a C4 in that condition for that price...

I approve. I've always had a soft spot for C4s and I think you got a hell of a deal!

Those wheels are going to the scrap dealer. I am ordering black ZR1 replicas in a few weeks

CammedCTSV > MysticStick 05/09/2015 at 23:00

Tires are new, but I am going with black ZR1 in 17x10 front and 17x11 rear

CammedCTSV > Schaefft 05/09/2015 at 23:03

New paint, ZR1 wheels and a vortec 350 with LT4 hot cam, should put me at 400 rear wheel torque and 350 hp. Oh, and ditching the TPI plenum for an Accel super ram

Uh, you know you can get a lot more money by selling those rather than scrapping them, right?

First up, replacing this monstrosity with an OEM unit.

They all go the same direction, sweeping toward the front. If there is any direction flipping going on, somebody put the wheels on wrong.

Axial > CammedCTSV 05/09/2015 at 23:27

Don’t scrap them, sell the wheels to some Vdubbers. They will gobble that up.

I can buy Alpine below cost, so I have a double din bezel on the way

Axial > CammedCTSV 05/09/2015 at 23:47

But it’s still going to look all sorts of wrong. Utility will be great, but I’d rather take visual continuity.

I hate the Bose systems in these cars, they are problematic at best. I want Bluetooth, USB and HD radio. GM radios of the 80’s remind me of my Mom’s Iroc-Z Camaro and its tendency to eat my mix tapes. The head unit may look too flashy, but I am also going to add Focal components and a JL Audio 5 channel amp, all hidden and stock appearing

I wont scrap any wheel in this bolt pattern, I just hate their looks. I am going to use them for auto-x and drag tires on my Camaro

That’s going to be sweet. Something like a 275-40-17 front and 315-35-17 rear I would guess would be about perfect.

Axial > CammedCTSV 05/10/2015 at 05:16

Well, if it is a Bose (and they weren’t all Bose, that was an option), then by all means rip the audio system out.

Personally, I think the C4 is too loud inside to be worth dumping a nice audio system into. All the fidelity just gets lost in the road noise.

That is as good a use as any besides scrapping. Just thought you might waste some potential race monies by actually scrapping them.

I bet that'll be a much improved look
