Red flag #1: Only 1 feedback
Red flag #2: Purchased from a friend of a friend of a friend, etc...
Red flag #3: As far as I know...translation (plausable deniability)
Red flag #4, 5, and 6: Won't let you inspect car?!!
I would do a lot of due diligence before I even considered it.

I have been attempting to communicate with this seller also. Very difficult extracting info about the car or getting comprehensive photos. I do believe it to be a factory black / white car. Have you seen the stamp pad? I do not believe it is a factory stamping.
Its only 3 hours from me but i cant get enough info to justify a drive. Pass.

and wanting all the $$$$ he can get for it 
and is not willing to let you come look at it 
, how do you expect anyone to help if you can't look at it I would bet he will not let anyone else look at it 
. If there is a 67 Corvette that (he has) F/S. First thing I would do is RUN FOREST RUN that guy is 
. Can you spell SCAM. First time selling on e bay, not mush as far a details on the car, a lot of pic are duplicate. If you buy from him you need to come see me and see if I can sell you my 83 Corvette.

from what can be seen, a good looking car. if i were in the market, i would take a closer look. i do not understand why an owner would not allow an inspection. pics of trim tag, vin, tank sticker would improve credibility for someone to pursue further.

Pure BS.
Stay away.
I emailed the seller and he said he won't be available until after Aug. 20, so no looking at the car.
He is an idiot and possibly a scammer although he seems to stupid to fool anyone.
