Description
Finished in white with blue side scallops and stripes, the car is equipped with a 331ci V8 paired with a BorgWarner Super T10 four-speed manual transmission. Additional features include a roll bar, Simpson harnesses, and red-painted Torq Thrust-style wheels wrapped in Hoosier slicks. This C1 Corvette was last raced at Sebring in 2017 and is not currently legal for street usage. The fiberglass bodywork is finished in white with blue side scallops and twin racing stripes. The windshield frame has been removed and the rear wheel openings enlarged, while additional features include #99 livery decals, chrome bumpers and trim, a body-colored tonneau cover, a ventilated hood with pins, bullet-style side mirrors, and red headlight covers. The 15” Torq Thrust-style wheels feature red centers with polished lips and are wrapped in white-letter Hoosier slicks sized 225/60 up front and 245/60 out back. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel Wilwood discs, and the car has been fitted with a rack-and-pinion steering conversion. The cabin has been stripped and features a single red-upholstered racing seat equipped with blue Simpson harnesses, as well as a fire extinguisher mounted to the padded roll bar. A red leather-wrapped Luigi steering wheel fronts a body-colored dashboard with red trim that houses a central 8k-rpm tachometer and a suite of aftermarket auxiliary gauges. No odometer is fitted, and thus total mileage is unknown.
