Spring of 2017, I found this Corvette in a Birmingham estate's climate controlled garage where a small collection had been stored for many years. There was no documentation to be found but a thorough, expert inspection revealed no rust issues or evidence of damage repairs. I am downsizing and not interested in trades.
The paint appears to be original and in fair condition. The black leather interior has no splits or tears, and no cracks in the dash pad. The carpet is in fair condition with one small wear hole on the drivers side. The engine is the correct, numbers-matching 454/365hp engine. The automatic transmission looks fairly new, and was probably replaced or rebuilt at some point in the recent past.
