Suggestions and Prices On Callaway cars...

[Trev_427Vette]

Hello guys, after reading this forum for a few weeks I decided to join and ask a few quesitions. I'm only 15 (yes could be a shocker to some) But I do know just a little about Vettes Every since I was a little kid I've been spoiled with the Vette heritage, Dad bought me an 82 when I was born in 88. My father has been a car dealer for over 30 years and his main cars were always Vette's, he drove in the 60's of course, new 65-67 Vettes. The one car I loved, a 69 Marina Blue 427/435 car we ended up getting a pretty good dollar for. We've had several C-4's through the years, mostly vertibles. I've been obsessed with Vettes, Callaways, and Lingenfelters since I was 5, when I had a Hotwheel I remember, It was I believe a 92 Super Speedster Callaway, Orange with hot pink interior, and after then Vettes are the cars that I love. I know I'm rambling, just wanted to tell you guys where I come from. Now to my point 89*2, and other Cal-owners, could you give me a ballpark on what it costs to have a LT-1 made to SNAT specs? Just the motor, no aerobody. I believe the Aero Kit is around 10k painted to factory specs? What is a kit un-painted and un-installed (if it can be done) going to cost me? I've been looking, and I figure I can get either a TT 87-88 for the low 20's, as well as maybe a low 90's SNAT. But, I could buy a Vette and have Callaway do it if they still do and if its affordable enough. Thought about turning my Maro' into a C-8, but its just not my car. I would end up sellin my 57 Chevy, The Camaro, and a few other cars I own, but yes I know I'm young and its sort of a first car, but, you only live once Thanks for your help guys, Look foward to reading more.

Hello guys, after reading this forum for a few weeks I decided to join and ask a few quesitions.

Welcome to the

...Now to my point 89*2, and other Cal-owners, could you give me a ballpark on what it costs to have a LT-1 made to SNAT specs? Just the motor, no aerobody.

Trev, the engine would probably set you back AT least 15 grand... I think it was about 12 grand or so during the end of the C4 run - Mike Vendetto ( mvendetto@callawaycars.com ) would be able to pin point a price for you BUT... there is a 93 Supernatural (number 5, I think) that has come to market... His asking price is $23k :eek a darn good place to be Click here for the ad...

I believe the Aero Kit is around 10k painted to factory specs? What is a kit un-painted and un-installed (if it can be done) going to cost me?

The Aerobody package is $8k uninstalled - figure on at least double that to properly fit and repaint the car to original specs :eek

I've been looking, and I figure I can get either a TT 87-88 for the low 20's, as well as maybe a low 90's SNAT. But, I could buy a Vette and have Callaway do it if they still do and if its affordable enough.

Yes, you are in the ballpark with that, You have been doing your homework on these
Again, You would have to check with Mike Vendetto about availability on the products...

Trev - Keep on asking away, your enthusiasum is more than welcome here

Thanks a bunch 89*2, I've been looking around. I actually saw that car you mentioned for sale first on Ebay, and then on here, looks like its in pretty good shape(as far as you can see with a camera.) The only problem I would have with the pre 90 Twin Turbos would be the un-updated interior with the original 84 dash....body looks don't bother me as much as I do like the round taillights. I figured about that much on motor- 10 to 15 is what I was thinking, but when I really get serious I'll check it out. It wouldn't be a problem if I got the Body, and needed to have it hung and painted, I know a pretty good painter who paints exotics and such. Thanks again...BTW, wouldn't want to sell that 89 B2K would ya?
