Can someone convince me not to do this? Never thought I would but I have my eye on fab equipment

1993 Corvette. 6spd. Competition Yellow. Black Leather. - $10700

I hardly ever drive this thing anymore. too many other projects I play with. I've owned it since Feb '99 @ 86K miles.
1993 Corvette coupe
Competition Yellow, 1 of 517 with this color in 1993
Black Leather Interior, pretty good shape
6 speed ZF6 - excellent, stout transmission
--- Very desirable color/transmission/interior combination
Two removable top roof panels, clear and painted yellow.
LT1 127,000 miles. bone stock it pulled 277 Hp, 311 tq at the rear wheels stock! (before flywheel conversion) Most LS1's do around 305/295. Runs very well and revs smooth.
Single Mass Flywheel Conversion - stock 2-piece 45lb flywheel changed out for 19lb steel flywheel & sprung clutch disc. rev's much quicker now, more HP at the wheels. makes transmission noise at idle though - some think its annoying. didn't bother me as it's a performance mod.
K&N filter & open air lid.
B&M short shifter - really transforms the feel of the transmission (best mod!)
Lowering Kit - front about 7/8" and rear 1" really lowers the car
'89 Z51 Bilstein shocks
replaced all 6 U-joints about 2 years ago (<7K miles) and balanced the shafts.
replaced to new opti spark, water pump, timing chain set, oil pan gasket, all coolant hoses, 165 thermostat <7K miles
Chrome stock wheels, brand new front tires. 50% rear tires.
J55 13" brake conversion with all factory ZR1/LT4 parts.
"40th Anniversary" embroidered into head rests but this isn't a Ruby Red model.
Mobil 1 10W30 full Synthetic oil and AC Delco filters the whole time I've owned it.
Converted to R134a A/C with proper compressor & accumulator
Fixed typical intake gasket leak <7K miles and the internals were CLEAN!

bad:
one chip in the paint on RR quarter, its been touched up.
headlight motor makes some noise, I might fix this soon

Selling tip.
I always keep the racecar away from buyers eyes.
AutoTrader $99 run it till you sell it ad. They try to get you to let it laps.
Renew renew renew and renew it again.
Bev's car has been there for 8 months!
Renew it!

You could sell your mother-in-law on autotrader.
Good luck!

Congrats Morgan!
I know it was tough to see your baby go.
Tough decisions to make, but I think I'll take fun of racing over a shelved car anyday!

Glad you got what you wanted for it.
