Proceed with caution! Is it a blue coupe with ghost flames? If it is they have had the car for a long time. What are you looking for? If you are looking for a C2 you are going to over pay even in this economy. You need to either spend the money for a real nice car or build your own. The least expensive way out (of course in my opinion for what ever that's worth) is to find a real nice non original motor C2 that needs little to no work in the 35K - 40K range and convert it to a LS motor and O/D trans of your choise. Keep in mind that you will still need to upgrade the suspension and if it's pre '65 convert to disc brakes. You can buy a complete mono leaf front and rear suspension kit from Vette Brakes and Products for 2.5K. Then you still need a set of wheels and tires. There is NO room inside the stock fenders of a C2 and if the car is lowered even less. The biggest tire and wheel you're getting on the front is a 225 on a 7" wheel. In the back a maybe a 235 on an 8" wheel. Safe sizes are 215/50-17 on a 7" wheel in the front and a 225/50-17 on a 7" wheel in the rear. If you don't have to have a C2 and you will settle for a C3 you can most likely build the same car (the chassis are the same) with much more tire under it (245s and 275s) for at least 15K less. I'm not trying to sound harsh here I'm just trying open up some additional ideas as well as keeping you from over paying for a car that Pro Team has had in their inventory for a very long time. There must be a reason. If you have more specfic questions and I can help please ask. Good Luck with what ever you decide.
