HELLO AND WELCOME TODAY I HAVE MY 1977 CHEVY CORVETTE UP FOR AUCTION I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR ALMOST 15 YEARS, IT HAS BEEN VERY WELL MAINTAINED AND NEVER ABUSED. I HAVE NOT BEEN DRIVING IT VERY MUCH THE LAST FEW YEARS AND THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS THAT I'M SELLING IT. ALSO I DON'T HAVE ROOM FOR THE CAR ANYMORE. MY INTEREST NOW IS IN OLD THUNDERBIRD'S WITCH I HAVE 2 THAT I'M STARTING TO RESTORE. * LETS GET TO THE BAD FIRST. *THIS CAR NOW HAS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM* TRANSMISSION WORKED FINE UP UNTIL 6 MONTHS AGO AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WOULDN'T SHIFT INTO 3RD. IT SHIFTS FROM 1ST TO 2ND WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM, BUT WILL NOT SHIFT INTO 3RD. UNTIL YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF OF THE GAS PEDAL. WHEN ACCELERATED, IT WILL GO BACK INTO 2ND. I HAVEN'T DRIVEN THIS CAR VERY MUCH IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AND FOR THE MOST PART IT JUST SITS COVERED IN MY GARAGE. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE MAY BE A PROBLEM IN THE VALVE BODY WITH ONE OF THE VALVES STICKING, BUT BEING THAT THIS IS THE ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION AND 35 YEARS OLD, I WOULD SUGGEST HAVING IT REBUILT OR REPLACED. THIS CAR RUNS GOOD AND DRIVES STRAIGHT, IT HANDLES GREAT WITH A NICE RIDE. ENGINE,TRANSMISSION AND REAR ARE ORIGINAL AS WITH MOST OTHER PARTS ON THE CAR. CAR HAS 79, 000 ORIGINAL MILES. THE ORIGINAL SPARE TIRE, OWNERS MANUAL, T-TOP BAGS/COVERS,JACK AND LUG WRENCH ARE STILL WITH THE CAR. THIS IS JUST A SMALL LIST OF PARTS THAT HAVE BEEN REPLACED SINCE I OWNED THE CAR. BATTERY IS LESS THAN 1 YEAR OLD. ALL FLUIDS HAVE BEEN CHANGED ON A REGULAR BASIS. ALL 4 CALIPERS WERE REPLACED WITH VETTE BRAKE STAINLESS SLEEVED UNITS ABOUT 6 YEARS AGO. THE INTAKE MANIFOLD WAS REPLACED WITH AN EDELBROCK PERFORMER, I DO HAVE THE ORIGINAL ONE THAT WILL BE INCLUDED WITH THE CAR. THE CAM AND LIFTERS WERE REPLACED WITH A LUNATI SET, I ALSO HAVE THE ORIGINAL SET THAT WILL BE INCLUDED WITH THE CAR. TIMING CHAIN AND GEARS WERE REPLACED. THE STARTER, ALTERNATOR, WATER PUMP,MASTER CYLINDER, FRONT SHOCKS HAVE BEEN REPLACED IN THE LAST 5-7 YEARS. EXHAUST WAS REPLACED WITH A CORVETTE CENTRAL DUAL SYSTEM ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. HEATER CORE WAS REPLACED ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. WASHER PUMP WAS REPLACED LAST YEAR. SEAT COVERS WERE REPLACED WITH AN AL KNOCK SILVER LEATHER SET ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO. FRONT RUGS WERE REPLACED ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. INTERIOR SHOWS AVERAGE AGE AND IS NOT PERFECT, BUT STILL LOOKS VERY GOOD. CAR WAS PAINTED ABOUT 14 YEARS AGO, IT SHOWS AVERAGE AGE WITH SOME CHIPS,CRACKS,SCRATCHES, SOME LIFTING TO THE EDGES ON THE HEADLIGHT DOORS AND SOME FISH EYES ON THE BACK DECK. PAINT STILL SHINES NICELY. THIS IS NOT A SHOW CAR OR A TRAILER QUEEN, BUT A NICE DRIVER IN MY OPINION. AC IS NOW NOT WORKING, IT HAS A LEAK ON THE HOSE COMING FROM THE BACK OF THE COMPRESSOR. CLOCK WORKS WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT, ALL OTHER GAGES WORK FINE. HEATER, REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER,WIPERS, FACTORY ALARM, CRUISE CONTROL, LIGHTS, HEADLIGHT DOORS, PS, PB, PW, ALL WORK AS THEY SHOULD. TIRES ARE BETTER THAN 50% TREAD, BUT SHOW CRACKING ON THE INNER EDGES OF THE TREAD FROM OVER THE YEARS. STEERING WHEEL SHOWS SOME CRACKING ON THE TOP. TRIM AROUND AROUND THE REAR COMPARTMENT DOORS IS CRACKED. FRAME/UNDERCARRIAGE IS SOLID WITH NO ROT, JUST SOME SURFACE RUST. BODY IS STRAIGHT. NO BROKEN GLASS, JUST SCRATCHES AND MARKS FROM OVER THE YEARS. I HAVE TRIED TO DESCRIBE THE CAR THE BEST THAT I CAN, BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTION, PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO ASK BEFORE BIDDING. *THIS CAR IS BEING SOLD AS IS WITH NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED* BUYER WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING, I WILL ASSIST THE SHIPPER WITH LOADING THE VEHICLE. A $125 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT THROUGH PAYPAL IS EXPECTED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF AUCTION END AND FULL PAYMENT SHOULD BE MADE WITHIN 7 DAYS BY CASHIERS CHECK OR CASH IN PERSON. *THIS CAR DOES RUN GOOD, BUT HAS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO. FOR THIS REASON, I WOULD SUGGEST HAVING IT TRAILERED* I STRONGLY RECOMMEND COMING TO SEE THIS CAR IN PERSON OR SENDING SOMEONE TO INSPECT IT, BEFORE BIDDING. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, THIS IS A USED CAR THAT IS 35 YEARS OLD AND WAS NOT MADE YESTERDAY, IT SHOWS AVERAGE AGE AND IS NOT PERFECT, BUT SILL LOOKS NICE FOR AS OLD AS IT IS. I HAVE A CLEAR PA. TITLE FOR THIS CAR IN MY POSSESSION. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS A PA. ANTIQUE REGISTRATION. UNITED STATES BIDDERS ONLY! THANKS FOR VIEWING MY AUCTION.
