Welp, this arrived on Thursday as I got home from work. Its Asshansons old 2006 Corvette. Previous owner ended up dropping a valve and locking the motor after he only put around 3k miles on it over the last 3 years. I made the journey down to Iowa to look at it 2 weeks ago and debated what to do... After some heavy thinking and some negotiating, it's in the garage.
I will start to tear into after our wedding takes place mid July. Overall condition of the car when I looked at it a couple weeks back was rough. Once it was delivered I gave it a bath and an interior polish. It looks in much better shape than I though it would be. Still needs a good exterior detail, but that will come once the engine gets addressed.
Still has all the same mods Andrew left on it when he sold it, no changes. Once the engine comes out and I figure out what can be salvaged ill decide on what to do engine-wise. Thinking built shortblock with a mild cam for around 500whp.
