1986 Corvette Stocker?

I've run onto a 1986 Corvette that's priced right! It's very clean, everything is there, and it's modified as a nice street/bracket car with a lot of the work done and parts added already. My plan would be to run it in Pure Stock for now as it already runs the index and then build a Stocker later. NHRA has it listed as 230/300 and I believe it's a natural C car but could run D. Any advice on whether it would be a good starting point. I will say I can pick it up for under $5K and it wouldn't take much at all to make it Pure Stock legal. Never thought anyone would consider a Corvette as a dime rocket. Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks.
