This is a Pre-production model, #55 of the 1995 model year.
I have been the owner since Spring of 96, purchased the car from a lady with 13k miles.
This has been a great car, daily drove it for years. It has been garage kept for most of its life. Paint and interior are in overall good shape, but this is a driver and not a show car, but very good condition for its age and mileage. I am not in a rush to sell, and I don't "need" to sell it, I just don't drive it much, and have another Vette that is my current fun car/project.
Has always been very reliable, never ANY drive-train issues, only sporadic things like a water pump, blower fan, opti spark, window regulator, etc., all of which have been fixed over the years. I did most all maintenance, repairs, and mods (except for engine work & dyno tune). Always taken great care of: regular wash, wax, clay bar, etc. Oil/filter changed every 3k, always w Mobil1 syn, motor is as clean as new inside, burns NO oil, I have never added oil between changes, and never low when I changed it. Regular change of brake, trans, rear, and coolant as well. This car is an all around great performance car, and very streetable, runs at 180 deg, and makes smooth power from off idle on up, very linear, not peaky. Car made 403rwhp on a dyno, conservatively puts it at 450HP+ at the crank. Never abused, total street car, but you can drive this around and have fun, or go to the drag strip, auto cross, or change brake pads and do track days. I still get compliments on the look and sound of the car all the time.

I will include these with the sale of the car if they do not sell separately first.
Thanks guys, it has been and still is a really great car. Always planned on keeping it when I did the mods, and I still may, as I won't give it away. It is a shame these cars have dropped so low, hopefully they have reached their full depreciation.
I have a couple other For Sale threads on some items I found while cleaning.

I've seen the car in person, and seen it on the dyno. The car is every bit as nice as he says it is, and it runs incredibly strong. Good luck with it man.
Thanks. I really like the LE2 package for the street. This was from when Brett Bauer made the cams for LE. It has a great sound, and has very smooth power from off idle to redline.
Wheels are from AFS, I looked around a lot to find light weight polished alum. when I purchased, plus wanted 18s all around.
