Anyone recognize this car?

Got this car delivered today that was supposedly an old race car that ran high 10s with an lt1. It's a green 95 with pewter 98+ front clip and a blue ss hood. Just curious if anyone recognized it at the track or knew more about it

That's my old car, mid transition in a 98-02 swap, that has since been parted up. Still have my 385 waiting for a new owner or resting place.
