Default Ugly ?

Soooo -- Wifey and I gets da Coffee, paper - gas the Jeep ( vette stayed home - ? rain ? ) and go to Flowerfield in St. James to look for vette stuff. I just missed a 87 vette intake set up complete for $160 ( probably another $1000 to make it work in the 84 ).
She want's to see the Show cars ( I love this woman ) Were walking around and I spot this -- ( phone camera crap shot )--





IT'S A VETTE ( yes to each his own ) it was nice ( for what is was ) I would drive it ( at least it's domestic ) but come-on -- guess the year ?
