Who in their right mind would trade up an F-bod for a vette? ...... Just kidding. Sweet vette man. Good luck with it.

that was my first car. Dad bought it for me in highschool and we started restoring it, drove it my senior year, then bought my ws6. We still want to finish it but not having a garage/time/or funds is killing it :/. Mechanically it was dont just needed paint body and interior, now its been sitting for 3 years

Well its been sitting so long it could use some freshening up. The windows leak like the titanic, even through the cover so the interior is moldy. Ive been meaning to get in there and strip it out and clean it just no time.
