Default 1969 Survivor on Ebay - Carolina Motorcars - Anyone seen it or available for inspect?

I am sure some folks have seen this car:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/281438656497?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
I have found it here as well:
http://carolinamusclecarsinc.com/196...-tripower.html

I am in discussions with them but since it is up on Ebay, who knows where it will go.

So I have a few questions.

1. Has anyone seen this in person, could it really be 19k miles, docs to prove it?

2. Assuming it is, what is it really worth?

3. Is anyone nearby to do an inspection?

4. IS this really a bow tie candidate?

Thanks! - Newbie at C3's...

The Bloomington Gold site will defines SURVIVOR. http://www.bloomingtongold.com/index...vivor-corvette

The NCRS site defines Bow Tie criteria. http://www.ncrs.org/services/judging-awards.php

Yes. The reported mileage could be actual.

Cars can only be Bowtie judged once. I don't know if NCRS will tell you if that vin has been judged or not judged as a bowtie candidate if you are not the owner. And if it has been bowtie judged, how it did.

Looks nice in the pictures. Personally I would not want to own a very low mileage survivor because I wouldn't be able to drive it. I like looking at them, but wouldn't pay a lot of money to own one.

My only little nit to pick (not that I would notice some major issues) with the photograph, I can see the spark plug wire grounds are not correctly attached. On the drivers side it looks like there is one ground under each of the 4 valve cover bolts. There are supposed to be 2 under the 1st (from the front) and 2 under the 3rd. Easy fix, but it bugs me to see them done wrong.
