Vehicle Detail
Up for auction my 1979 Corvette Black with White leather interior the car has a GM zz383 stroker 450hp(motor has 4500 miles since 11/06 no rain or winters or any foul weather) turbo 350 with shift kit 373 rear, i purchased this car in June 2006 with 45000 original miles. Soon after having problems with the motor. I had a local Corvette shop Vette Dreams of Babylon NY replace all the brakes including calipers, 2 rotors E-brake cable , parking shoes , front wheel bearings pads ect. Purchased a GM ZZ 383 stroker ($4900) and had same shop swing in the new motor with new Hooker headers exhaust 2.5 with 2 chamber flow masters, custom heat shields to reduce heat from the headers. New Aluminum radiator, march pulleys, flex fan, MSD box 6a,high flow water pump, edelbrock carb 750cfm and intake, new chrome valvecovers, Edelbrock aircleaner with KnN filter. I have $15k in reciepts this includes the motor, recently purchased a new high torque mini starter $250, new optima red top battery $140. The previous owner replaced the front seats, tires(goodyear) had the original wheels polished, transmission rebuilt with shift kit. This car sounds amazing and is fast for sure, never beat on(tires i got the car with are like new) and always garaged and covered the whole time i have owned it. Has some spidering on rear bumper and around rear tail lights, new winshield wiper motor , The power windows work but need attention they do not seal all the way up (picture of both sides). Drivers door lock doesn't work and passengers work manually. These things never mattered to me because i kept the car garaged and never had it out in the rain and would basically weekend cruise it . (Carpet next to console has a gap), drivers door panel where you pull it closed is disconnected, horn doesn't work comes with new parts. All the lights and gauges work, Heat works AC is long gone, headlights raise and lower as they should, the tach bounces and would replace with after market one.The Kenwood tape player works and antenna goes up when it turns on. I am being as honest as i can so there is no surprises for new owner. New Distributer cap and rotar $40, oil change with Royal Purple oil ready for its new owner, this car is a nice cruiser im not claiming it to be a show car. $150 deposit immediatly at end of auction via Paypal the remainder in cash in person. I am NOT shipping the car if you want to arrange pick-up thats fine, There will be NO negotating the price after the auction has ended, SCAMMERS WILL BE REPORTED. For sale locally, i have the right to end this auction at anytime. I'm not shipping the car or dealing with escrow companys sorry, buy the car in person or please look elsewhere. Please don't bid if your not 100% planning on buying it. Thanks-Kevin
