Heck ...what can I add to the comments of others...I just hope the owner had insurance coverage... especially since it had no rear plate
on it so it may not have even been on the road...
BUT my major concern is that I am in the market for a 2000 to 2002
Corvette FRC or Z06 and I am afraid that more thne a few of them
will be on the market in a month or two sitting on a lot...all dried out
and looking good...but the seller not disclosing it was under water
for a "few" days....

Make sure you check the title real close to make sure it wasn't for salvage... we had Isabelle here and I know a couple people tried to sell some stuff after insurance paid and the title said "salvage' and the VIN should be recorded for salvage too with DMV... I also know some "lowlifes" will get bogus Titles too, especially with older years....

You bet I will be checking the Title and run a CarFax check...
BUT to be truthful I really do not care if I buy a car with an S or R title...
(Salvage or Rebuilt)... As long as it passes "my" inspection and is priced accordingly.... Just another Toy that I have no intention of ever selling

It can be repaired. IF it's done right, there is no problem.
All I need is a large garage, some time, and cash, and I can make it like new.
Wait a minute, I don't have a garage, time or cash! Guess I'll pass.
