Default Does anyone know this Corvette?

Was owned by a guy in Frisco (North side of Dallas for those unfamiliar). Pretty distinctive with the GT-1 stripe kit. Has an A&A blower kit.

Does anyone know the former owner? Pulled public records and have the address the car was registered to in Frisco, but no phone number etc. on the guy.





On hood:



Any help would be appreciated!

It would seem that way, but just curious about this one. They have zero documentation on it and it has bounced around three dealerships (have a buddy in the business who ran it for me) so I am very leery of the car. It could be a hot mess.

Eh, wife wants a auto trans C6... then she doesn't ... depending on what day of the week it is...

So... if "we" are going to get an auto trans C6, it better be something that I wouldn't mind driving or taking over if/when she loses interest.

She wants stock and cyber gray. I want cam/blower/nitrous/twin parachutes and color is less important

did the public records that you pulled come from a website? if so, would you share it? i think something like that would be helpful to me (and others too) when I am shopping for my next ride.

That's right. I'm lacking a phone number and can't find it on the internetz anywhere.
