Default 84 Corvette with LS1 engine and transmission

I bought this car from Mario Cabrera (a Corvette Forum Member) and it was built by Trace Torrence (also a Corvette Forum Member) in Houston, Texas. I bought it with no transmission, torque arm, driveshaft and exhaust. I had a local Florida shop install a new 4l60e transmission and Torque arm adapter as well as the exhaust. It is an awesome car and built very well. I am selling the car because I have a new baby on the way.

The car is street legal with catalytic converters. The odometer is showing 0000 as it is new as with most components being replaced or upgraded. I believe is has low miles, under 100k. It was built to compete with C5 Corvettes but I have not raced it SCCA yet but it does very well around town.
Asking $8500 obo and I'm open to offers
I am in Melbourne, Florida

LS engines are fun to work on. There is no BS with getting the distributor to go in on the correct tooth. GM has done some great work designing.

Im sure its nice, Im not into red interiors though. In fact I think Im going to change out my blue interior for black.

Noone seems to have any money right now anyway.

What do you guys think of swapping in the 91-96 interior into the 84-90 vettes.
