I have had this car since I bought it in Philadelphia over 10 years ago. The 350 small block is bullet proof and produces as much torque as horsepower. With the Magna Flow exhaust, it sounds great and gets a few extra ponies. Handling is superb, the ride typically stiff for a Vette. Its interior harkens back to the days of Star Wars and disco; thick pile carpet and an all electronic dash. Totally an anchronism. Driving in it with the top down, hearing the rumble of the MFs and you feel like you've gone back to a time when muscle was still the deal. Practical - not really. Fun - totally yes. Remember putting baseball cards on your bicycle wheels. Same feeling.
