well stripping wouldnt be hard most of the dash is taken apart so i could get to things and alot of interior trim should be replaced it can be cleaned up and put back together but thats up to who ever wants it i found a vette salvage yard in san antonio so i can give who ever buys it the info to get what ever replacement parts they want

says curb weight is 3,229 but thats with the big old heavy iron 350 and 700r4
