Judging from the fact that it looks like the vette is parked in a salvage lot and there are people standing around spectating, I am going to go out on a limb and say that the vette was perhaps totaled already and parking this van on top of it was a spoof. I may be wrong though.

Even if it was totalled there were still plenty of valuable parts left on it.

This is what was posted with it.

Hey guys,

My 98 is dead and I need a new box to put my motor, etc into. The pictures speak for themselves...the car is FUBAR.

The story is that some jerk decided to park his van on top of my car. Seriously....you can't make this stuff up! He literally parked his van ON TOP of my Vette! Sad doesn't begin to describe the situation. All I got from him is "dunno what happened...sorry!"

So I'm looking for a c6 convertible...prefer silver 06 and later...with a blown engine.
I'm not interested in salvage, fire, flood, accident....ok maybe light damage.

I'm still at the "I'm exploring my options" stage. I'll be here for a bit while waiting for the insurance company to screw me.

I'd say more like mid 400's. But by the looks of that monster I doubt that thing was stock internals....

I thought that was my car at first! ha ha

That sucks.

Mid 500's probably, thats what most of those cars with blowers end up being without much modification.

Nobodies I know with stock internals etc has gotten anywhere near mid 500's with a blower. Figure a stock LS1 Vette, around 300-325, add 100-150 at most for the blower and your in the mid 400's. To put on a big blower on you need to lower compression and do other mods. Then you will get over 500 easy....
