Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

327/365hp, 4-speed, power brakes, AM-FM, heater, spinner wheel covers, narrow whitewalls.

Condition

Indifferent clearcoat paint, nose shows evidence of being worked. Sound older upholstery and top. The engine compartment, frame and underbody are not restored. In fact, they're barely touched. Windshield bright trim doesn't fit flush; the windshield was scratched by the gorilla sanding the body for paint. A disappointing Corvette with some sloppy work spent on it to no avail.

Market commentary

The seller should be very happy to get this much for such a disappointing Corvette. What was done needs to be done over and there's plenty that was never done, or even touched. It is implied to be the original engine, which helps but the paint looks like it was done in a high school shop class (do they still have those?)
