C5s aren't bad, price wise. I bought a really low mile one for $17.5K. If I had to do it again, I'd get something with a few more miles; this one has some weird issues from sitting that I've been working on repairing. I've seen good examples go for 14-15k.

If I hadnt known the owner, the guy that built it and gotten a deal on it I wouldn't have bought it. It's a PITA to work on and not very much room in the car.

Thanks for all the help guys, ended up getting the whole charge system all wired up with brand new wiring and fuses. Still up at work but I'll hopefully be firing her up on Friday!

You got it. Worst part is I was ready to fire it up the day before I came back to work but kept blowing a fuse. Once I got to work, I found what my issue was within 2 minutes of chatting with PSI. So she's ready I hope! Cannot wait.

Thanks again for the help, this is a great forum.
