No pup cats here in FL until 2001.
I had a black '99 FRC, 2 '00 FRCs torch red and nassua blue.

I hope this helps you http://corvetteactioncenter.com/spec...2000specs.html then just navigate to the 1999 specs.

EDIT: all spec sheets here.

Check the spec sheets. I think there were a handful of 99 FRC's that were not Z51, but the reverse was true for 2000 FRC's.

Some say FRC means Factory Race Car but it really means Fixed Roof Coupe.
