Vehicle Detail

I've got a 1989 Chevrolet Corvette C4 Convertible 5.7L V8 350 cu. in. for sale with 57XXX miles. To put it up front and honest the main two issues with her are the title mileage and the convertible top. Regarding the title mileage, I bought the vehicle, being the fifth owner, previous owner was an older gentleman who only took it out for a Corvette club once a month hence the low mileage, with 51XXX miles from a dealership in Sierra Vista, AZ the town adjacent to Fort Huachuca where I was stationed at, being ex-Army. The dealership took care of all the registration paperwork and come to find out they made a clerical error and registered it with 81XXX miles, mistaking the 5 for an 8. I've tried working with the AZ DMV and the dealership in trying to get this fixed, and neither say it is their issue. The car has 57XXX actual mileage no matter what the title says, in the 3 years that I have owned it I have only put a little over 5,000 miles on her. But when the next owner goes to get it registered they should do a odometer inspection and should register it with the correct mileage. But besides that, never had an issue with her mechanically, starts up and runs every time. The only issue with her otherwise are, like I listed before the vinyl window on the convertible top cracked on me, due to AZ heat, so I just cut the remaining pieces out so she will need a new top, or just the window if you're mechanically inclined. Other minor quirks include the antenna motor works and will put the antenna up, but for some reason when you turn her off, it does not catch to pull the antenna back down, if you push it before the antenna motor stops you can get it to go down. Secondly the window washer fluid nozzles do not spray, when you hit the sprayer button you can hear it work but no fluid comes out, possible kink in the line or possibly something else, an easy fix. Thirdly the driver side lock does not lock when you use the lock button, you have to do it manually for some reason that does not catch either but again an easy fix. Fourth, the ac/heater console sometimes acts up. If you press A/C to turn the AC sometimes the temperature display will flash or give you partial numbers and the A/C wont turn on, but if you keep pressing the off or A/C buttons it eventually will turn on. With that, the A/C blows cold and the heater blows hot especially for an older style A/C heating system. The seats have normal wear due to age, and the panel that covers the trunk when the top is up, and covers the top when it is down has faded paint. Lastly at least the rear, possibly all the speakers are blown, but the radio still does work and, again just need to purchase new ones, swap them out and they're good as new. As far as the good parts, as listed before she has a low mileage of 57XXX, which for being a 25 year old car, that is only 2300 miles per year. NEVER had a problem mechanically, starts up immediately and you push the pedal and go. She's got Firestone Firehawk tires all around with at least 80% tread left on them. Can even get them to spin out on a slick road, did it several times when I lived in Vegas due to the high traffic. All together, she's a low mileage, dependable, 3 owner, cherry red convertible with lots of get up and she goes no questions asked.

Here is a youtube video, if you'd like to see it running, just a couple of revs, nothing really extensive: http://youtu.be/VaAe-G64hcAOn Aug-07-14 at 13:35:13 PDT, seller added the following information: Also have release of lien in hand from USAA Federal Savings Bank, not sure why care report history says there is still a lien, might be because I paid it off pretty recently, around April of this year, but this will be included when I mail title as well.On Aug-13-14 at 15:28:57 PDT, seller added the following information: Forgot to add in the original posting, vehicle is completely stock except for head unit (as shown in the picture) and it also has a level 1 performance ecu chip not sure how much hp it adds, haven't had a chance to dyno it, but it isn't stock so it's something extra.
