Does that mean it's a base model that's being upgraded, or a legit Z28??

95% original.
Not a chance.

Hasn’t really been messed with in the past 20 years.
Does messed with mean adding a cowl hood? Steel hoods are readily available now, anybody know if they were in '99?
Or messed with meaning those period Cragar mags and awful speaker covers?

There's a lot of Bondo there, and that scares me. That familiar steering wheel should too, but instead it made me smile.
Oh its all the way scary, but I still think if you can say 100% that the car has its born with drivetrain, from engine to rear end......worth the price of admission.

Especially when you consider "driver quality" restorations are getting much more acceptable. Patch the floors, make it mechanically sound and drive it. When almost every other sketch muscle era car out there was born with a 326 and a super turbine, or a 318 et, and yours is a legit 302 Z and a 4 speed? Sounds pretty good to me.
