Please read the whole description before asking questions. I will try to make this a detailed description because I want to cover everything as honestly as possible. If you ask a question that is covered in detail in the description I will ignore it. A serious bidder will take the time to read the description thoroughly. If you need clarification on something in the description I will answer those questions. Don’t mean to start off negative but I have been on E-Bay many years and I have a 100% positive feedback. I do not have time for scammers and dreamers and would appreciate only people seriously interested, who have the money, bid on this car. That being said, I have what I feel is a decent driver quality Corvette. This car has not been driven more than 2 or 3 times a year since I bought it 5 years ago. The car runs drives and stops good and can be driven anywhere. Overall appearance of the car is good inside and out, paint shines nicely and it appears car has had a repaint with only minor visual blemishes. Interior is in similar condition with normal wear for its age but could use new front carpeting. Underside of car and engine compartment are also in good condition for a car this age and really only require some cleaning and detailing. There are no significant rust issues anywhere on the car. Mileage on speedometer shows 34965 but can not be verified as actual mileage although the car drives, shifts and feels tight like a car with lower mileage. The Carfax report shows this car as mileage exempt. This leads me to some other facts about the car that I want to be honest about. When I was going to buy the car I did a Carfax report which came back clean so I completed the purchase. I still have a copy of the report from the purchase in 2013. After having the car for a while, I noticed the passenger side T-Top did not fit as good as the driver side. I also noticed the door gaps on the passenger side were a little off compared to the drivers’ side. This led me to believe that the car had been in an accident even though the Carfax came up clean. I can find no other indications in or under the car but still think something happened. Since I have decided to sell this car I ran the Carfax again and it still comes up clean. I have the current copy of the Carfax which I can E-Mail to serious bidders on request. I am disclosing all of this to be completely 100% honest in my representation of this car. If you look at the pictures you can see the car is very presentable but once again I would consider this a driver quality car. 1981 4 speed Corvettes are very low production and this car was built in the St. Louis plant as indicated by the VIN. If you are looking for a good driver for a reasonable price this is the car for you. I have tried to cover the description honestly and thoroughly but if I have not covered something relevant or you need clarification please ask. I will only be checking my E-Mail at night to answer questions so please be patient. I am only selling because I have too many projects and not enough time. I will not disclose the reserve but will say it is set at less then what I paid for the car in 2013. Please do not bid unless you are serious and have the money to complete the auction. I will not accept bids from bidders who have a history of less than 10 auctions with positive feedback or no activity in the last year. Deposit of $1000.00 via Paypal required within 48 hours of auctions completion. Pick up of car and balance of payment due within 7 days unless other arrangements are agreed to. Car is sold as is and there is no warranty or guarantee expressed or given on this car or the description of it. Please do not make offers to buy it now or trade me something. I am not interested in any trades as I have enough stuff. Auction will run to the end so if you really want it bid accordingly.
