Vehicle Detail
1980 CHEVROLET CHEVETTE 4-DOOR, ONE OWNER, LOW MILES *IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION AND ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING.* This Chevette is being sold for its original owner, who has put a gentle 72,000 miles on it over thirty five years of ownership. It has been maintained carefully until parked and protected under a car cover the past two years. Selling for elderly original owner. It starts easily and runs smoothly, especially for having two year old gas in the tank. Probably the tank should be emptied and flushed for ideal performance. Does not smoke and has no valve or lower engine noise so I believe the engine is very sound internally. I have put it in drive and reverse to go back and forth in its driveway and all seems fine, but the owner does not want it driven on the street since it’s no longer insured. You should assume that despite the low mileage and excellent cosmetic appearance this car will need some going over in terms of tuneup, brakes, etc. Ultimately it makes a very nice collector car and I see no reason to believe it can’t also be a driven on a regular basis. Would make an excellent second family car, or a young driver’s first car. The car was repainted professionally many years ago and still looks great. There is very little body repair and it passes the magnet test well, indicating it was never rusted out to any significant extent. The interior is near mint condition, aside from minor fading and small defects in some of the plastic parts, one very small seam separation (about 3-4” long) on the driver’s seat, and the front carpets are heavily worn, almost all on the driver’s side. Window sticker, owner’s manual, various service receipts. Low starting price, no reserve. Bid to win! THIS CAR IS BEING SOLD AS-IS, WHERE-IS, AND THERE IS NO WARRANTY IMPLIED. $1000. PayPal deposit required within 24 hours of auction's end. Payment in full required within 3 days, unless other payment arrangements are approved byseller within 24 hours of auction's end. Correction: I've been told the car was repainted just a couple years ago, not many years ago. CAR IS LOCATED JUST NORTHWEST OF PHILADELPHIA, PA. YOU MAY SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE THE CAR BEFORE YOU BID, IN FACT THIS IS RECOMMENDED. THANKS!
