Default 1957 Corvette CA car Restore- Restomod

I have a 1957 Corvette CA car with paperwork from the late 60s and 70s. Currently it is a work in progress. Black car with silver coves. Body and paint done and project stalled since then. Nice job on paint, etc. Frame is smooth with no rust issues ever, and has been cleaned and painted. Complete new wiring harness installed. Nice body. Has a date proper engine with it and 3 speed. Front end rebuilt, smooth steering box. correct wheels and white wall tires. Have everything for the car to restore or whatever is your pleasure. Have all new red correct interior installed on cushions, complete door panels, nice white soft top. etc. Most chrome has been redone and is in wrappers. Looking to get $50 for it. Between the paint, parts etc. I have way more in it. I know a lot of guys want to make a rest-mod and if someone wants to buy the car minus the original stuff I can work with that. But be real. This is not a fire sale.
No trades of any kind. ** CAR IS SOLD **

Fuel injected car, or is the accelerator rod an add-on? Heater delete? Does it have a radio?

I have had some response and have just set a price for the basics for the non matching number guys that just want their own concept (restomod) (gasser)(street) car. $42K is the price for a super clean chassis, nice original body that has not been clipped, single stage urethane black and silver, windshield frame and orig. nice windshield, door posts, doors complete, gas tank, most chrome redone in newspaper wraps, steering column(and it steers so nice), engine mounts, driveshaft, new wiring installed, front end rebuilt, exhaust system, master cylinder and working brakes, etc. and orig. VIN plate and paperwork. From here anybody can finish it. The body and paint is usually the stumbling block.

Other items can be negotiated. There are no tops, guages, seats, interior, engine or orig. wheels in the package above.

Again, no posting here. Call me if interested. NO TRADES (860) 913-4680 Greg CT.

Looking for someone to take this to the goal line. Seems like a lot of lookers. Thought there were still some backyard mechanics in existence? Again, I am willing to let some or all of it go, depending on your intended build. CAR IS SOLD
