What year???
My neighbour has a friend who sent him this photo of a Vette that can be bought for $1,000. It ran well (8?) years ago and has been parked ever since. It was a divorce (she won)...It's in a shed, with tons of crap stored on top of it. Any idea what year this is?

The front tag indicates Stewart Chevrolet in Colma CA (San Francisco).
The salt air probably hasn't done this car any good..
BTW: I wouldn't consider this car a bargain at $1000, certainly not without an inspection. MUCH less expensive starting out with a good car, than trying to rebuild a problem child (don't ask!).

Hi vjam,
I'm interested. I've put tougher projects than that back together. I'm down in Palm Springs. Where is the car located?
I've got a thing about bringin' 'em back from the dead!
Best,
Greg

Joke: Did you hear about the new Divorce Barbie? She comes with all Ken's accessories.
Oh yeah, that happened to me. Not funny.
Regardless, deliberately inflicting that kind of damage on an American legend (i.e., a Corvette) should be a felony.
