For Sale: 2001 Chevrolet Corvette in Lavergne, Tennessee

Vehicle Description

While technically only recently a 'classic' by insurance standards, the C5 Corvette is a landmark in Chevy's history, representing a turning point towards the future for Chevy. Any true Corvette enthusiast will tell you that finding one, regardless of condition, is always exciting, but finding one that is nearly completely stock sends heart rates to another level of happiness, which is why this 2001 Chevrolet Corvette Z51 LSX Gen IV Supercharged has us smiling from ear to ear. With just 28,262 believed actual miles, this Torch Red beauty sports its original paint and body panels along with a ridiculously impressive list of upgrades, thanks to its $100,000 frame-off rebuild.

Inside, we find an Ebony leather interior upgraded with a C7 seat and visor conversion, a carbon fiber steering wheel, Nappa leather shift and brake boot, and a matching Nappa leather center console, complete with red stitching. The added pillar gauges keep tabs on the boost and air/fuel ratio, while the standard C5 gauge cluster lets you know when to shift and how impressively you're breaking the speed limit. A custom Alpine AM/FM/AUX head unit looks at home above the dual-zone climate controls, while power windows, locks, seats, and mirrors, along with a Heads-Up Display, air conditioning, cruise control, and a removable targa top, add all the modern amenities anyone could ask for in a modern sports car.

Pop the classic front-hinged hood of this C5, and long gone is the stock LS1. In its place is a pro-built Texas Speed and Performance 383 cubic-inch supercharged V-8 engine, with too many upgrades to list. Featuring forged internals, CNC heads, custom TSP cam, upgraded EFI setup, and a methanol injection kit, TSP stainless steel long tube headers, cat-less X-pipe, and Billy Boat Bullet dual exhaust, this blown small block makes a dyno-proven 900 horsepower at the crank. That massive power is routed through a built Tremec T56 six-speed manual transmission, highlighted by a McLeod RXT ceramic clutch, a billet steel flywheel, and new master and slave cylinders, before heading out to a beefed-up 3.42 GM Positraction rear. Big nineteen-inch BC forged RS45 wheels shod in Nitto drag radials out back, with Bridgestone rubber up front.
