Yea its an auto-x set up car, recaro SPG seat and sliders. Its going to be just a track car, so I only need to fit in it to race. I can't drive my dad's 07 vette with a helmet on so I just want to make sure the car is going to fit me. The guy lives in Colorado too so I can't really go sit in the car til I purchase it after the nationals next month.

I don't know what it will be like with aftermarket seats. Headroom is close with a helmet on, when I auto x'd my last fd I opened the sunroof for extra clearance. I can tell you that my 2002 z06 had more head/leg room then the fd though. Never sat in a C6 tho.
whats up guys. im new to the boards and i live in san jose. I figured i drop thru and say wahts up?! I own a 91 red fc n/a thats currently being restored and very close to being drivable.

Found the broken fuel line, and discovered the car was originally Montego Blue! And from what I can tell is not a base model but a touring with base seats. Found the rear wiper fluid reservoir and it has a sunroof and from what I can tell no base models had sunroofs or rear wipers.

For now, get it smoggable and fix little things. Over time and LS1 swap, paint job/restoration, 99 spec front, rear diffuser, RE tail piece. Just a few things haha

I haven't decided yet, I really love Montego Blue when it's fresh and since it was the ORIGINAL color I might go back to it. I'm probably not going to paint it until I do the LS1 swap which may be a while. Unfortunately whoever painted it VR didn't do a very good job and they painted absolutely EVERYTHING, even underneath the interior panels. So it will be a PITA to take it back to original color.
HAHA and also the 1k mile engine has a mild street port. So once it is driveable/smogged/reg/broken in it should be pretty fun to drive.
