does it come with a giant mustache, gold chains and a Hawaiian shirt that is missing the top 3 buttons?

Never been a big fan of the C3 but the sound of this thing is nasty, pretty decent chop to it.

the fuel lines & glass filters look unsafe, hanging out there to vibrate & come loose.

that's very 1980's, when did he complete the build?

I like the C3's, I just don't like that it looks 100% stock except for the big ass blower sticking out the top. If it had a good paint job, lowered, and some nice wheels I would like it a lot.

He bought the car about 4 or 5 months ago was intending to build a street/ strip car out of it. Wife tore up their durango so he is looking to pick up another family car and a sport bike with the cash.

Hes got a SRT-8 Magnum with a gun on it and runs it at dorchester when hes in the area.

The fuel line for the rear carb looks like it gets a little warm next to that header

This was just his first step pretty sure he had plans to do all the above, The paint is pretty decent in person if you like the color, especially being original. Got a few rock chips but nothing major and still shines decent, pretty sure Matt could hit it with the high speed buffer and it would look like new.

makes more sense then, if he is still tweaking on it, and just got it all running to get some cash flowing.

that's prolly a good stage to sell it, then someone can take it in any direction they choose.

take it to HHP, and put some numbers on it, then you have a starting point to advertise.

if it's 500HP like a newer vette, could up it's value a lot.
