Default Let's look into this a bit further....

Has 350 board tin over, polished imported heads, 400 + hoursepower, positive track 4/11 rear end, slap shift automatic transmission, T-Tops. Needs new interior door panels. Has blue glow lights underneath and plays Batman Theme song as you drive. Batman Mask Included. Car very Fast, top speed unknown

350 board tin over - I have never seen a "350 board" let alone one with tin over it.
Imported heads - are they French??
Positive track 4/11 - is that an "educated" guess?
Slap shift automatic - this should get the attention of the "high performance crowd".
Needs new interior door panels - I am pretty sure the dog chewed them up.
Blue glow lights underneath - That is a feature everyone should have.
Plays Batman Theme song - That is so, after a very short while, you can be found at the local "booby hatch" sitting in a corner drooling.
Batman Mask Included - This is for your eventual use at the previously mentioned "booby hatch".
Top speed unknown - another plea to the prurient interests of the armchair racer and "Batman wannabe".

This has the whole spouse demanding the car be sold thing written all over it. "Yeah honey, I tried to get rid of it. Even put it up on ebay but nobody would pay anything for it."

If that car is worth 60 grand, I need to get into a new line of work.

Well, can you really blame the spouse? Would you want that thing sitting in YOUR driveway?

I didn't notice at first he was throwing in the bat-mask! I'm going to have to give this some serious thought now!

You take one slightly used 1977 Corvette + Oversize homemade fins + cheap outdate five star aluminum wheels + a few cheap "batman" decals = a $60,000 "custom ride"

If the "buy it now" is $60,000 , I would hate to guess what the reserve is set at.

I don't think so
