Vehicle Detail

Clean Corvette - Second owner, Adult Owned and Maintained - No Accidents - Garage kept its whole life. 86k original on car - Professionally Rebuilt 350 engine - New Edelbrock Performer EPS intake and 650 Carb.K&N air cleaner with open element top. Rebuilt distributor with 50K volt Coil , Taylor wires. New Long Tube Cerama coat Headers. New radiator with No engine turned fan - Thermostatically controlled electric fan Runs a Cool 170 degs. I'm not gonna overrate like some of the Guys that list their cars but Horsepower is Approaching an honest 300. Had Cold A/C with R-134 Conversion but had to evacuate system for engine mods - then compressor disappeared from the side of the house - Easily replaced. Hood currently off because of taller intake set up - planned on installing a Cowl induction hood.One can remedy this by installing a regular height Performer intake or similar - modifying stock hood (included) or like I was going to do - put a Cowl induction hood , which costs about $500. from Ecklers. New 0 miles ZR-1 Hyperblack 17 inch wheels from SLP Performance and 0 miles B.F. Goodrich G-Force TA'S . The STOCK Aluminum Rims and tires included. Body has been painted Brown FireMist with Heavy Gold Metal Flake (according to Hot Rod Mag and Chip Foose - The Hot New Color) original color was Brown. Recessed headlamp assy. with modern 9004 bulbs and black housings - Headlight covers with a spare set incuded. New Bubble tail lamps with original assys. included. New beautiful 1 piece Astro Targa top in Transparent Bronze - Original fiberglass t-tops also included. Car currently has open exaust - Needs Mufflers - was going to put an x pipe with 40 series Flowmasters (not included) - Interior good - will need front carpet kit and drivers leather seat is torn from normal entering and exiting. AutoMeter Ultralite Fuel pressure gauge intstalled. Rear carpet is very good.original 8 track is included as well as MANY other original parts. Vette was bought from Sandusky Ohio so YES it does have Rust on the frame - in the usual spots vettes are famous for - behind drivers door in front of rear wheels frame rail. Have stopped it with POR-15 Rust inhibitor (PIC before treatment) but it will need attention sometime. I've priced replacement BOX sections at 65.00 a piece needs(2). The rest of the frame is in Very good shape with minor surface rust only - Even radiator support is good. I have over $9,000 in reciepts.Has been sitting in garage since engine mods (Had to pay for Real Estate Classes) and gets started periodically much to my neighbors dismay (open headers). This Vette is really sweet and needs a good loving home - only selling because of a new career start and plans have changed for my automotive preferences. Will entertain SERIOUS offers - email me and we will talk.........................Also included - 5 years worth of Vette and Corvette fever magizines - BIG shop manual, Laminated wiring diagram,haynes manual, original owners manual and original 1979 dealer paper work.............MUST SELL!!! Thank you, John
