3 DAY AUCTION ONLY !!!!!!!!! If you've always wanted a Corvette but thought you couldn't afford one, heres your chance. This is a whole lot of car for a small amount of money. This is a 1979 Corvette with the 350 engine and automatic trans. Don't think its the original engine but not absolutely sure. This car has been off the road a while as the owner passed away a few years ago and it has been parked since. He was in the process of fixing some minor things such as the wipers as the wiper motor is missing. This was and is a running driving car although it needs some work to be road worthy. The engine runs but has a good bit of blow by. There is a little lifter noise but an oil and filter change may fix that. Remember this has been sitting so you have to expect it needs a little attention. It has a new carburetor that needs adjusted but it is brand new. All the AC parts are there but the belt is off of it. It has a new radiator installed. The Vette has the painted T-Tops on it that are in good condition except for the inside liner on one of them, they latch fine. The drivers seat needs some work but good for a daily driver, pass side seems fine just needs a good cleaning as does the complete interior. Door panels are pretty good, no visible damage, dash top has some cracks, carpet is dirty but all there. The carpeted panels that go on the sides of the console are gone, think they just deteriorated. It has the tilt and telescopic steering column that's in good condition but the leather on the wheel looks bad. The rear compartment carpet is fair, just needs cleaning. The factory wheels are all there including the center caps, how rare is that? The tires hold air but have dry rot. Now the body on this Corvette is pretty nice for a 79. All the white looking areas you see in the pictures is just where the paint has come off for some reason, just need refinished. There are a few minor cracks or flawed places on it but nothing major, think Ive included pics of most of those areas. Guys this is a great project car and you can be riding with minimal work depending on how nice you want to make it. The buy it now price is extremely low for what your getting. You don't find a low price Vette everyday. Also the frame on this car is super nice, do not see any rust issues at all. That's about all I know to tell you so if you have questions please email me and I will get back to you asap. Checkout my feedback guys as its well over 500 and all positive. You don't get great feedback like that if you lie and cheat people, I tell it like it is. Read the description carefully, look at the pics and you will know exactly what your bidding on. If you have less than 10 positive feedback you must contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. This corvette is for sale locally also so I reserve the right to end the auction early should it sell. Thanks for reading my novel and good luck should you decide to bid on this great 1979 Corvette, running driving project car. REMEMBER THIS IS A 3 DAY AUCTION ONLY!!!!!!! It has a clear VA title.On Dec-05-13 at 17:36:55 PST, seller added the following information: Just wanted to clarify a thing or two from questions ive been getting. The miles are 100,00 plus what is now on the odometer. Don't think theres any 79 Corvettes out there with 35000 miles on it. Sorry for the confusion and if you need to retract your bid that's fine. Also the old battery wont hold charge but it can be jump started. Guys this is a 79 Corvette that has been sitting quite awhile. Please be realistic when you look at the pics and the description and realize its a low priced running project car. Hope this helps and also the car is located in Union WV 24983 just like the auction states. Thanks for all the interest and if you still have questions let me know. Checkout my feedback, over 550 and all positive. Im not on here to scam anyone.On Dec-06-13 at 06:58:48 PST, seller added the following information: Some mix up on the mileage although it shouldn't matter on a car this age. The ebay rules wont let me correct it elsewhere but as you can see in one of the pics the odometer is showing 64000 so assume its 164000, no way to know for sure. Sorry for all the confusion but hope this gets it straight. Thanks
