An '87 vette at Crown Assets in Montreal (http://crownassets.pwgsc.gc.ca) On page 4 under cars for sale

I won't comment on the style, the fleur de lis in one of the pics says it all. If it doesn't make reserve like the Countach mentioned in last week's Ottawa Citizen (no surprise there...), the driveline and suspension parts would be great for a third gen.

Why does the Canadian Government own a ragtop Corvette?

Maybe someone at the RCMP thought it would be good as a discrete undercover vehickle that no one would look at twice.

It's likely from a tax deadbeat.

Tell me there's no drugs hidden in that car. For 50,000Kms it beat!

yeah 58K..., I don't know who gave them that figure but their dope is real good. I'm sure if you called any Lambo dealer in the states they'd tell you a clean one, half that, and that one at Crown Assets is well chewed. Imagine buying that (for any price) and hearing an engine knock or a whine in the diff. Call NAPA or Auto Parts Extra and ask for parts for that...
