General:
This car is not for the faint at heart and is an absolute blast to drive.  It is loud, has a wicked idle and is extremely fast, despite looking like a basically stock 1980 Z28.  It also handles very well due to the VB&P suspension and the wide tires. 

Imperfections:

• The paint is overall in very good condition but does have a few flaws.  The rear bumper has a few paint chips and scratches but they are not particularly noticeable due to size and location.  The right rear quarter panel has a light dent but looks easily repairable.
  
• The oil sending unit is not functioning.
• The parking brake has never been installed.
• The windshield wipers do not function.  (No need...never drove it in the rain)
• No heater is installed.  This is not a winter car.
