Default Interesting 02 Vette my uncle bought...

So my uncle is a wholesaler and buys cars everywhere. Well he bought an 02 Vette in LA at a wholesale auction w/ 21K miles. Car looks like it was never taken care of. Plastic is fading, etc. Car has 1 cheap racing seat, stock ring & pinion sitting in hatch, Dynatech headers, 16" Fikse FM-10 wanna-be's, and obviously a cam. When he started it up I quickly noticed a sweeter smelling exhaust as it has race gas in it. He said it is an animal on the street! May get to borrow it for a T&T to see what it does...

Sounds like something Dick Guldstrand had in his shop the couple times I was there.

You got to find out whats in it and give us the scoop or get that thing out to the track to see if it in deed is nasty.

It's not the nicest but I'll get a pic. Paint is rough with lots of minor scratches. Plastic cowling at the bottom of the windshield is completely faded. Not sure what the deal is...
