Condition

This Corvette is in strong #2 condition with light signs of age from an older, high-quality restoration. It remains highly original and was restored with careful attention to factory specs, retaining date-code correct components throughout. It’s a stunning and mechanically sound big-block midyear ready for NCRS judging or spirited open-air cruising. 

The car was a Top Flight in 2008 with a score of 95.2. We don’t have the original judging sheets, however, we have the confirmation certificates, signed and sealed from the NCRS.
