A few words about the car:

The car is still in "as raced" condition. It is one of only a handful of cars that still has it's ORIGINAL racing engine. The only items missing that I would still like to find are the race data acquisition computer and the original engine that the car came off the production line with. If you have any contacts on where I may be able to find either of these items, I would appreciate a name & number.

Due to the Andretti name associated with the car and the fact that the 1988 Corvette Challenge B9P cars are the first corvettes ever to be "officially" built and sold as race cars by GM, this is indeed a rare and a unique piece of corvette history. These cars are very good candidates for collector, the 88s will always be the first "official" race cars which no other corvette can say, not even the big tank ZO6s or the L88s.
