1999 Corvette FRC less than 500 build in this configuration, very fast, handles great Z51 suspension, awesome car for the money. This corvette has Brand new SSR 18's and 19's with new AVON tire's I also have original wheels with run flats. Car has Corsa GTR Stainless Steel touring exhaust, KN air filter, Larger air bridge,smooth bellow, Goodrich steel braid brake lines, drill and slotted rotors, ceramic pads and Hurst Super shifter. I also have laminated window sticker and 1999 brochure. In 1999, the Corvette was offered as a limited production Fixed Roof Coupe commonly known as a hardtop. These FRC’s were designed to be faster and lighter than any Corvette in history. In 2001, the FRC’s name was changed to Z06 with the addition of the LS6 engine. Because the FRC Hardtop was only produced on a limited basis for a year and a half, it is the rarest of C5 Corvettes. The Hardtop's underbody structure is the stiffest of all C5s. It has both the Coupe's "top bow" and the extra crossbar behind the seats, characteristic of the Convertible. Its exterior bodywork behind the windshield and above the belt line is bolted to the windshield header and is bolted and adhesively bonded to the rear deck. The underbody structure, the hard top and the lack of the big hole in the back for the hatch make the Hardtop about 12% stiffer in torsion and bending than the Coupe with its roof in place. Additionally, though the removal of the coupe's heavy hatch glass and lighter top structure, the Hardtop's curb weight is 80 pounds less than the lightest Coupe. This hardtops comes with the Tremec T56 six-speed transmission, a 3.42 limited slip axle and the Z51 Performance Handling Package which consists of higher rate springs and stabilizer bars and a set of stiffer, fixed-valve, shocks. For increased performance for the average driver, this car has the RPO JL4 Active Handling System. "AH" piggybacks to ABS and traction control and can assist the driver in maintaining control in gross oversteer/understeer situations with momentary brake intervention on a single wheel basis. The 345 bhp LS1 engine is highly reliable, quick reving and will give you years of carefree driving. For the racing applications that this car was designed for, this is a must. This car has a little more that 54,700 miles on it. The majority of the miles on the car were from long-distance highway trips Since I bought the car in August of 2004 it has been garaged and covered (cover included with car) at all times. The paint is in good condition with minor wear consistent with a well maintained car this age. New spark plugs, fuel filter, PCV valve, and K&N air filter were installed within a month of purchase. The oil has been changed regularly with Mobile 1 fully synthetic oil as recommended by the factory. The exhaust from the H-pipe back was replaced with a fully polished stainless steel Corsa GTR touring exhaust. The sound is incredible! This car is mechanically perfect and ready to drive. Fuel economy is 19MPG city and 31MPG highway. That’s not a typo. 31MPG from a 345 + bhp Corvette! Non Smoker SSR wheels, almost new tires, clean, low miles, K&N Filter, Jack Pucks, Larger Air Bridge, Smooth Bellow for better air flow, Goodrich Steel braid brake lines, drilled and slotted brake rotors with ceramic pads, cabin divider behind seats, GTR Corsa Stainless exhaust, Hurst Super shifter big ball paint is in good shape but has some chips on front and a few minor scratches comensurate with a 12 year old car. Clean carfax and great car for the money. LOW Reserve so get it while you canOn Mar-21-11 at 19:51:21 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot to add the SSR wheels are 18 front and 19 rear, Corsa exhaust cost 1500 when I bought it, factory wheels if I remember do not have any rash or anything and are 5 spoke chrome 17 front 18 rear still have run flats on them with sensors so you will get both sets of wheels with sensors in them.
