I'd be surprised if the frame VIN matched the title...and not surprised if the frame VIN is the original to this car. Probably just conjecture placed in the ad to give it false legitimacy.
Rosette rivets showed up around VIN 7800 and were all in by approx VIN 10,000.

That is the least of your problems with this car.

It's back on ebay with no mention of the coupe convertible transition. Looks like it moved from New Jersey to Missouri. Oh boy, what a mess.

Guys are on here wringing their hands about corvette values, and this POS was bid to 31k and change. 31,000. Now think about that for a minute. Whats that make your nice driver worth? Stop the hand wringing. These cars are always going to be special and bring decent money. The sky is not falling. I promise you.
