Hello fellow Bayer’s. Over the next several days, maybe weeks, I will be listing a lot of my toys for sale. A short but not complete lists of things I have or will be listing are just below. So be sure to check out my other auctions and check back regularly for new listings. This even only happens roughly every 4-5 years when my collection just gets to large. 63 Corvette Convertible, 71 Chevelle, 1976 Datsun (Nissan) 280Z, 83 Porsche 944, 83 Porsche 928, 91 Chevy Corvette Convertible, 95 Dodge 2500 4X4 Plow Truck, 95 Saab 900s Conv (Auto),96 Nissan Sentra, 97 Saab 900s (5spd), 97 Nissan Sentra, 99 Ford F3500 (w/ v10 Triton and plow), 2002 Ford Taurus SE, 2003 Land Rover Discovery, (3) 2002-03 Kawasaki Waverunners (2 x 1100’s, 1 x 1200), 2005 Lotus Elise My name is West Solloway and I am a total car nut. I absolutely love cars. Perhaps a little too much. I change cars as often as some change their underwear. OK, maybe not that often but you get the picture. Currently, according to my maintenance guy, I have 45 motor vehicles. Of these, at least a half a dozen are in the project stage. This collection includes cars, trucks, motorcycles, watercraft, and one airplane. I have a sickness by which even now, when I have far more than I can handle, I still find myself bidding on more. Every several years I have to go through them and thin the herd. There are only a couple of them that I will never sell. That said, over the next several days I hope to list roughly half of them to raise cash, make room for new ones, and finally get rid of some of the projects I know I will just never find the time to do. To be perfectly clear, I am NOT a dealer. I am a private seller with way too many toys and generally I don’t like to buy from dealers. For one thing, dealers generally don’t have a clue about all the intimate details of all the cars they are selling whereas I know mine inside out. I’m pretty sure there are a few of you out there with the same thinking. That said, I will go into as much detail as I know about each car and state as much as I know. That includes the good, the bad, and the ugly. I will try as hard as I can to focus as much attention to the ugly as I can. It is my sincere desire to identify every possible flaw I can find in any of my MV’s I am selling. It is my goal that when you receive your new toy, the only surprises will be good ones. I have bought and sold well over 100 cars in my 15 +/- years here on eBay and I welcome anyone of you to contact anyone of my previous buyers and ask them directly about their purchase. You will find every last one of them will have nothing but praise. I’m not trying to brag, that’s just how I do business. I’d rather not sell something than have someone disappointed with their purchase plus I don’t have the time or desire to deal with an unhappy buyer. To that end, I will guarantee any item I sell to be as described. If it’s not, you are not responsible to complete the deal. HOWEVER, that does not mean I will allow anyone to show up and start negotiating their purchase. I typically start all of my auctions at a minimum $1 starting bid with NO RESERVE. That means whether the car sells far above or far below what I’ve got into it, so be it, and I will live by my word. Even if that means selling a car I think is worth $20k (That I may have even more invested in) sell for $10k because that is what the highest bidder won it at, it’s a deal. This works both ways; if you think you can bid whatever you want to be the winner, and then show up planning to negotiate, don’t bother. I am about as straight a seller as you are ever going to find. INSPECTION - This is also why I suggest in the very strongest possible terms that prior to bidding you come out personally to inspect the vehicle you are planning on bidding on. Bring your mechanic, brother-in-law, whatever and come down and inspect it until all of your questions are answered. I have an awesome hobby shop that is very well equipped with any tools you may need to do the inspection along with a lift to check out the ugly side of most cars (some of mine are as pretty underneath as they are up top.) FYI- I am also a private pilot with a plane. I don’t fly across the whole USA, but if you live near an airport, (the smaller the better) and want to come check out the car but don’t want to drive all day to do it, I’ll be more than happy to come pick you up and fly you back. All I ask is you split the fuel bill. The palne does roughly 120 mph ande goes in a straight line. Fuel is about 6 bucks a gallon and my plane burns roughly 12 gallons an hour. So draw a line on a mapo from you to my, measure the distance. Divide by 120 mph and you will now how long the trip is. Multiply that by 12 gallons per hour at $6 per gallon and you will have a great idea of the cost. PRIOR TO BIDDING- Beside inspecting the car, please also have all funds immediately available, and permissions from any significant other, and anything else you will need to complete the deal already in place prior to bidding. Failure to complete the deal (other than for reasons stated above) in the time limits and terms stated will most definitely result in negative feedback. Payment Terms A $500 deposit is required within 48hrs of auction end. Paypal is the fastes and most efficient way to make this deposit but I will also accept any cash equivilient (Postal money order, cash, bank wire transfer) Balance in full is required within 7 (seven) days of auction end. This cannot be made by paypal unless buyer covers paypals fees for the transaction. Payment in full will be accepted in any payment form including personal checks, BUT, anything other than cash or wire transfer will have to clear prior to shipping or picking up the vehicle. That means REALLY clear. In most cases that will take a minimum of two weeks from deposit. I still have a bank check that is about as pretty as they come that took almost a full two weeks before bouncing on me. It was / is fake. I will absolutely allow as much time as is necessary to make sure the funds have cleared and will not be getting reversed prior to releasing vehicle. If you plan on using a bank check and want the vehicle right away, be sure to check in my area where a branch of that financial institution is (we have just about every bank in the world within a 10 mile radius of my residence) and show up during banking hours so we may go there together and covert it to cash. Anything short of that will result in waiting until they clear. Shipping As I said above, I have bought and sold over 100 cars on ebay over the last 15 years. I do not deliver cars or bikes unless we agree on this prior to auction end. There are some cxases where if you are close enough I can make such arangements. But I typically use UShip.com. I have found this to be a great way of getting the job done. I will assist your shipper in any way I can from my end, but ultimately it is 100% the responsibility of the buyer to pay for and make all shipping arrangements. Warranty Unless specified specifically, all vehicles are sold AS-IS, Where-Is. Other than my personal assurance that the vehicles listed are described to the best of my ability to be as accurate as possible, my only gurantee is just that. If the car is profoundly different than as described you have the option of not completing the transaction. If you have not inspected the car prior to purchase and had it shipped to you, I will still give a money back guarantee if the car is significantly different than as described. This money back guarantee does not include any costs other than refunding the purchase price of the car. The buyer is responsible for all other costs including shipping the car both ways. I have never had anyone take me up on this guarantee as I said, I describe even the smallest defects I am aware of. 1963 Corvette Convertible I purchased this car several years ago right here on Ebay. I really had not planned on buying it but placed a bid none the less. I can’t tell you how many cars I wound up with “by accident”. I had already built my dream car, a 1966 Vette convertible(A Big Block Resto-Mod and) and figured I could now duplicate it for roughly half the price having already done all the research and figured out what works and what doesn’t (A lesson learned at great expense). Since that purchase I have grown my business and built several other cars. There just never seems to be enough time to get around to this one. The car has sat exactly as delivered now for several years. It appears to be a custom job from the 70’s with the triple tail lights, flared fenders, and the headlights relocated in the grill (I Hate that part). The seats are also not original to the car. I’m not an expert but I would say they are from a 1974 +/-. The gauges are, in my opinion, the coolest Chevy ever put in a Corvette. They have the silver center with the needles that make a coupls of 45 degree bends to follow the contour of the gauge. Way cool. The car has damage to the front and rear fiberglass and already had the right rear quarter panel removed prior to my purchase. It has a small block in it (not sure exactly what it is as I’m a big block guy and an automatic transmission. I have never tried to start it as I had planned on pulling both and replacing them with a Big Block and 4 or five soeed manual trans anyway. I will throw a battery in it today and see what she does and report back. In addition, even though I think there is no way this has any chance of being a numbers matching car, and I really never cared about that either, anyone that can tell me what to look for to determine this is welcome to tell me and I will do my very best to examine it and report back. The frame is very solid and the car is pretty much complete. I have taken hundreds of photos of the car from every conceivable angle. So if you don’t see what you are looking for here, just ask and I will forward others to you. Or better yet, come out and see the car for yourself. I do not have a title for the car but one can obtained for roughly $200. And a bunch of paperwork and bueracracy. I am sure that I am missing a bunch of things in this description because I have not really taken a hrd look at the car in On Sep-26-13 at 11:06:39 PDT, seller added the following information: The VIN on this car is 30867S105616 and getting the title is not a problem
