The existing small block Chevy in the Corvette was in a pretty poor state of tune, we could barely keep it alive long enough to get it on the trailer to bring it to our shop. The battery was dead from sitting, and the float was stuck in the carb. Even after we freed the float, it was not a happy engine.
The car is pretty clean, and the interior is pretty good for a driver.
