My theory.....his wife demanded he sell the car, he thought if I put this on no way would someone buy it!

Nice find BTW, and that GS deserves a friend! Would love to have a GS for mine to hang out with.

A 2000 FRC with that kind of mileage is a great find.
Congrats!

nice car, take the spoiler off, and sell it to the kid down the street with the forest green 02 civic sedan with white front fenders and 6 inch muffler can. He'll give you enough money to cover the cost of fixing the trunk lid and get a case of beer.

I love shopping cart handles! NOT!

Thats a ACI "Exclusive" as advertized in the CorvetteAmerica catalog....only $368.99

Labeled as a "Air Foil" rear wing......"turly acting as an extension of the car itself". NO KIDDING, verbatim from the ad.

But seriously, that's one fine looking car you found.
