***THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL C3 CORVETTE!*** There are a handful of C3's on eBay at all times, in various conditions and sorting, but this one will stand out. This is a (barely) two owner car since new. It is a numbers matching, largely original car with no accident damage or repair. It has been kept in a warm dry garage for the better part of its life - last on the road October of 2005, and recently underwent an extensive mechanical restoration. This car is READY TO DRIVE, anywhere, any distance. It still wears original paint, with all interior and trim intact. NUMBERS MATCHING LONG BLOCK! Mechanically, this vehicle is 100%. All services were performed at a local Chevrolet dealership, by a Certified Master Technician, with well over 20 years of GM experience. GM parts were used for many of the repairs, while remanufactured parts or OEM equivalent parts were used when possible. The repair bill totals over $5,000 in parts and labor. Here is the list of repairs completed, all with less than 2 miles: COOLING: System completely overhauled - NEW: 3-core radiator & cap, water pump, thermostat, all hoses including heater hoses, clamps, overflow tank cover IGNITION: System completely overhauled - NEW: distributor cap & rotor, new wire set, new ignition coil, spark plugs, PCV valve, battery FUEL: System completely overhauled - NEW: fuel filter, REBUILT: 4-bbl original Rochester carbuerator, fuel system/tank completely drained, cleaned, and flushed ENGINE: ***NUMBERS MATCHING LONG BLOCK - SEE PICTURE OF BLOCK TAG***NEW: Valve cover gaskets, cleaned/painted valve covers, cleaned air filter cover, oil/filter change, all accessory belts TRANSMISSION: NEW: filter kit w/cork gasket, rear transmission mount, fluid (NOTE: documented transmission overhaul @ 82,071 miles on 4/10/03 - less than 2,000 miles on rebuild!)

Take it out on weekends - or weekdays! Have fun without worrying about damaging an expensive paint job. This car was well loved for many years, and almost entirely by one owner. It is ready to go to a new home, and doesn't have to wait for repairs or a sunny day. MANY more pictures are available documenting the repair process, almost all recepits dating back to 1986. The car had 62,912 miles on 4/10/1986, and 82,071 miles on 4/10/03 - it now has 83,529 miles on 3/6/14! NOTE: I AM NOT THE OWNER.
