there is only one '83 vette, and it’s in GM’s possession. There’s no way some fuckwad owns it. Especially at a HUGE car show…where he should have brought it.

There’s more than one. MAYBE 3 or 4. But no normal person owns them. A Corvette museum, and a few other ballers.

They don’t have registerable VINS, and no crash records…so they can’t be driven around.

I don’t really know, my dad knows more than me.

I knew this Mustang owner once that believed his tails were clear when we all knew they were ricey Altezzas. He used to scream “THEY’RE CLEARS!!!”, then he’d stomp around some, get in his car and go home.

I wonder whatever happened to him ? 😉

kid once told me for 2 hours about how fast his 3000gt was (NA AUTO) because he was running so much n20, finnnaly i go out to look at it, he has a nOS bottle in the trunk, with the hose running out… look under the hood, no hookup anywhere, i look back and find the open line is just tucked under the carpet… i break the news to him and first he is in disbelief, “but its faster i know it…” “how do you put the n20 on?”

“the guy told me when i put it in L that the n20 is on”

> Actually, 44 cars were assembled — all pilot cars that cost an estimated 500,000 each to fabricate. The 44 Corvettes built as pilot cars were assigned 1983 serial numbers. Of the 44 cars built, 11 were retained by the Bowling Green plant for assembly process evaluations and other tests. The remaining 33 went to engineering for crash tests and other engineering appraisals. The cars also saw duty at the long lead press preview at Riverside Raceway in december 1982

i donno if i would want any of those cars, there isnt much left of pre-production cars after all the testing they do. those kind of cars are plagued with poblems from being beaten hard and ripped apart 100 times

who wants a car thats been thru the pothole / speedbump tests like in the truck commercials show ? or a car that was an assembly line prop, and was torn apart / reassembeled 100 times in order to steamline the assembly process

its often hard to get 3 or 4 good cars out of what remains of 50 or 100 preproduction models

picture what would remain of 50 matching rally cars after a season of abuse w/ minimal repairs :bloated:

then i guess a mile a minute equals 88mph, despite the fact theres only 60 minutes in an hour

“yeah, your’s are the ones with the 5.0 in them.”  
“those cars were factory supercharged.”

two “mechanics” talking about 5-speed SHOs.

“I’m looking for the V8 Miatas that Mazda made…”  
“Those Mitsubishis (Evo VIII) have posi at all four wheels”  
“I drilled the block out to make it a V8” (Corsica)  
“The new AMGs have a factory nitrous system.” (Last German with a factory nitrous system also had cannon and a prop, that I worked into the conversation later and he stopped making eye contact)

“that Mustang’s got a big block.” (SCSteve’s late model GT)

there’s so much ignorance out there. 🤣
