Condition
#4 Fair
Has visible flaws to the naked eye. Runs fine, but could use mechanical or cosmetic attention.
Carfax reports this vehicle as a total loss in 2011 but has a clear transferable title. If the vehicle was restored, it has been driven hard since with minor touches such as new chrome wheels and Sumitomo tires. Paint is poor with numerous chips and scratches on all portions. The fiberglass front shows many chips and scratches. All rubber seals are cracked and disintegrating. Newer rear end does not match color of the vehicle. Seats have been replaced and driver seat has a tear. Dash and carpet show aging and wear. Engine has not been cleaned or detailed. Cobwebs and debris in engine compartment Front under-carriage shows some work done but is dirty and unrestored. Portions of the vehicle have been replaced while others are original. This appears to have been placed hoping for a quick sale.
Market commentary
With a shady history, tired condition, L98 engine (the Corvette got 55 more horsepower a year after this car was built with the new LT1) and automatic transmission, this car has nothing going for it other than the hard top. For another 1,500 bucks, the buyer could have gotten a significantly prettier example with a clean history and it would have been money well spent.
