I found this car in the country of Jordan. The guy wants to sell it, don't know the price yet or the vin. Thses are the pics that I have so far. Owner said that it has the original motor, but does not know what size motor it has. more details to follow as I get them.
Can you tell what it "Should be" from the pictures?

Looks like a '66 Vette with a '67 Big block hood. Recent Illinois plates, and has all the earmarks (knock offs, stinger hood, red paint, sidepipes) of a fluffed up auction car from 10 years ago. Appears to be having as good a time in Jordan as that Midnight Express fellow had in Turkey.
I doubt there's anything there worth sending money to the Middle East in hopes of actually receiving a Corvette someday. On the plus side, its not in Libya.....

It's a 1965.

Yes it is.

Look at what the redline is on the tach, that will help determine the HP of the engine originally installed.
Doesn't look like a fuelie or big block from the pictures.

Looks like it should clean up pretty good. The wiring hanging out from under the dash looks kinda scary though....

No new info yet. The guy has 4 cars that he is selling. Two 60s Mercedes and a 59 Checy Truck (6 cyl) and the Vette. The Vette is the only one worth shipping across the pond if I can get it for the right price.
