Background Story of this 1998 Chevrolet Corvette

Overview of 1998 Chevrolet Corvette For Sale by Owner

In the realm of automotive marketing, the concept of a "race car for the road" is often thrown around, but seldom does reality meet the hype. Striking the perfect balance between the thrill of a race car and the comfort of a sports car is a rarity. However, the 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Custom Race Car presented here defies convention. Boasting a modest 29,000 miles on the odometer and propelled by a potent 427ci V8 engine, this Corvette offers both creature comforts for cruising and the exhilaration of tearing down the track.

Exterior and Interior

Diverging from the typical race car aesthetics, this 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Custom Race Car retains its classic grey bodywork, embracing the iconic features of 90s Corvettes. While subtly incorporating enhancements like a front lip, side skirts, a 16lb carbon fiber hood, and an adjustable carbon fiber spoiler for improved downforce, it maintains a sleek and authentic appearance. Brown Fikse wheels housing upgraded Baer brakes underscore its performance focus. Inside, the black and tan interior seamlessly blends comfort and luxury—a rare combination in the realm of race cars. The inclusion of leather seats, equipped with Simpson 5-point racing harnesses, a mini shift light kit, gauges, and an interior roll bar for added safety exemplifies the fusion of race car functionality with everyday comfort.

Engine

At the heart of this C5 Corvette lies a rebuilt 427ci V8 powerhouse, delivering an impressive 620hp. The race-engine has undergone meticulous modifications, featuring Custom Wiseco Forged aluminum pistons, custom main rod bearings, and a 100-shot N20 NOS nitrous system with a window switch. Complementing its power are enhancements like a cone air filter and a Penske adjustable suspension. Safety takes precedence with the inclusion of a fire suppression system, providing reassurance in case of emergencies. The robust power generated by the upgraded engine is seamlessly transmitted to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission, ensuring an exhilarating and controlled driving experience.

2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe 1LT

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$59,999
SOLD

The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe continues the C8’s mid-engine revolution, delivering exotic-level performance at a fraction of the price of its European rivals. Finished in Black over Jet Black and equipped with the desirable Performance Exhaust and Carbon Flash accents, this example balances stealth styling with aggressive presence. With 46,136 miles on the odometer, it has been driven and enjoyed as intended while retaining the sharp looks and everyday usability that make the C8 such a compelling platform. The 1LT trim focuses on pure driving performance, pairing the naturally aspirated LT2 V8 with a lightning-fast dual-clutch transmission in a chassis that redefined the Corvette formula.

2007 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$33,999
SOLD

In 2005, Chevrolet revealed the all-new C6 or sixth generation Corvette. It did away with pop-up headlamps due to tightening safety regulations, but improved upon the C5 in nearly every other way. Whether it be power, performance or luxury features, the C6 represented a healthy upgrade over the C5. That’s why even today, C6 Corvettes like this 2007 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe are considered to be a great way to sample America’s greatest home-grown sports car marque. This particular car has just 14,732 miles on the clock and comes from Colorado. It’s got the 3LT Preferred Equipment Group, the Magnetic Selective Ride Control adaptive suspension system and a lovely 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 under the hood.

1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$124,999
SOLD

The second generation or C2 Chevy Corvette came in 1963, bringing that famous split-screen window to the party. Sadly it was discontinued after just one year due to rearward visibility concerns. But, the C2 also gave the Corvette things like pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Stingray badge. Hence, finding and acquiring a C2 in great condition is a very smart decision, soulfully, as well as financially. Thankfully, we’ve done the finding part for you, and present this 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible for your consideration. This sub 43,000-mile survivor car from Riverhead, New York comes with a Turbo-Jet 427ci V8 and 4-speed transmission, original keys, the original owner’s manual and even a Protect-O-Plate included with the sale.

1961 Chevrolet Impala Restomod LS1

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$64,999

The 1961 Chevrolet Impala is one of the most recognizable early-60s American coupes, known for its sweeping side trim, quad headlights, and jet-age design language. This example has been transformed into an LS-swapped restomod while retaining much of its original character inside and out. Finished in green with a white interior, the car features a recently installed LS1 V8 with approximately 94,601 miles on the engine. The firewall has been painted in candy apple red, highlighting the custom drivetrain installation, though the exterior paintwork remains unfinished and the seller has noted a quarter panel issue pending further documentation. Sitting on 22-inch wheels, this Impala blends classic styling with modern performance, presenting as a partially completed project with strong mechanical foundations.

Showing 51,859 miles on the odometer, it blends classic styling with modern drivability thanks to a 502ci big block, overdrive transmission, upgraded suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and a high-end audio system.

2006 Cadillac XLR

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$34,999

When it was introduced in 2003, the Cadillac XLR was quite ahead of its time. Sitting on a Corvette C5-based platform, it packed Cadillac’s smooth Northstar V8 up front, a luxurious two-seat passenger cabin in the middle, and a surprisingly decent trunk behind. Yes, the XLR was a luxury grand tourer, basically. It was meant to be Cadillac’s flagship at the time. However, only 15,460 units were made, signaling that perhaps, Americans underestimated this lovely home-grown grand tourer. Now, they’re realizing what they missed, and the savvy enthusiast will quickly snap up this 9,990-mile 2006 Cadillac XLR from Placentia, California. This car comes with chrome wheels, a black leather interior, a black powered convertible hard top, and much more to enjoy.
