1984 CHEVY CORVETTE HARDTOP CONVERTIBLE `VETTE LOVER'S PROJECT CAR: CLASSIC GOOD LOOKS, AND IT RUNS! 259,108 miles. 100,000 miles on current engine. Two-tone light-blue exterior; light blue cloth and vinyl interior with black trim. 350 cubic inch engine and automatic transmission. Registration and insurance are current. DMV Smog Certificate February 2, 2011. VIN 1G1AY0781E5102399 ESTIMATED BLUE BOOK VALUE There is no Kelley Blue Book value for cars manufactured before 1990. (Kelley Blue Book Value for a 1990 Corvette is $3,900.) FEATURES INCLUDE Operator’s manual, Corvette shop manual, and Chilton Repair Guide. Original tool for removing convertible hardtop. Removable hardtop stores in slot in hatchback (trunk). Functioning car alarm. Two lockable storage wells in hatchback (trunk) area. Hatchback (trunk) contents-concealer rollback shade (needs a bit of work but is entirely functional). Front and rear radio speakers (4 total; all functional). Electric lights on inside doors. Lighted passenger-side shade vanity mirror (new electronics installed a few years ago). Miscellaneous small parts (fuses, bulbs, Corvette license-plate cover, etc.) included. MECHANICAL STATUS New battery installed last week of January 2011. New fuel hose February 2, 2011. Runs with no known engine or transmission problems. Battery runs out completely if car is not driven about every three days. This indicates a short in the electrical system. This `Vette needs someone with the tools and expertise to locate and repair the short. No known alignment problems. Electric windows and power seats work. Automatic transmission shifts through each gear. Windshield wipers and rear hatchback opening are functional. Antenna vandalization protection: antenna automatically slides out and returns into car body when radio is turned on and off. Refurbished driver’s seat installed about four years ago. New passenger-side shade with new electronics installed several years ago. New driver’s-side shade included for you to install when desired. New door gaskets installed several years ago. Some door gaskets are now worn, but do not leak under normal operation. Right-hand door gasket leaks slightly under heavy rain conditions; needs to be replaced. (This is why passenger window is taped.) Hatchback gasket needs to be replaced but does not leak. New inside roof upholstery installed several years ago. New left-side headlight installed several years ago. Needs paint job. Headlights are functional but are stuck in the up position (headlight-cover motor needs replacement). Some dashboard lights do not function correctly. Minor oil leak. Leather shift glove is badly worn and should be replaced. Center console cover is badly worn and should be replaced. Radio works intermittently with a lot of static: possible antenna-reception problems. On Feb-04-11 at 18:29:39 PST, seller added the following information: PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A PROJECT CAR.
