I found a nice 1986 Corvette with the notorious Doug Nash 4+3 manual overdrive transmission for sale for less than $6k. It’s in good shape with only about 60,000 original miles and the current owner just replaced the clutch, slave cylinder, and throw-out bearing.
I’m thinking about buying it just for fun to toy around with and experience the “thrill” of the new 4+3 manual that wowed the automotive world in 1984
Funny to think back how revolutionary those early C4s were at the time and are pretty much as fast as a Chevy Malibu today.
I probably won’t buy it because outside of routine maintenance parts are made out of unobtainium. But it’s still a cool time capsule. I could dig through my tapes in boxes I haven opened for 20 years and rock my Def Leopard tapes
