While showing his 1995 Torch Red Coupe at a car show, Frank Schear was approached by a lady claiming to be the original owner of the Corvette. When she pointed out nicks and scratches on the car and explained how they got there, Frank realized she was indeed the first owner. Seems she had purchased the Corvette new in San Antonio, moved to New Jersey when she got married, then sold the car in 1998 – and had been trying to relocate the car ever since. Subsequently, Frank received the build sheet, window sticker, service history, and the assurance that the car had not been modified. Frank, from Lakewood, NJ, now races the 77,000-mile C4, nailing a quarter-mile best of 12.99 at 107 mph with only muffler eliminators and open air filter lid. “Very impressive for a completely stock car,” Frank says.
