Default Vintage Vettes

Considering using Vintage Vettes located in Kansas City to look at a C3 in the area. Was quoted $150 for a surface inspection and $250 for a more in depth inspection, numbers check, what's right & wrong with the car and an average retail estimate. Any experience with these folks and what do you think of the charges this service. Thanks

I dont know about the service but Iam sure it would be worth the money, if your looking for a trailer queen....numbers matching , seems to be what everybody wants to talk about but my god if your talking about true numbers matching...do you know what all that entails....Personally I just want one I can drive and enjoy...just my opinion....Randy

I know Jack Wallace personally and he's a good guy. You shouldn't have any problems with him.

On a related note, I'm also in Kansas City, own a classic car place, and will do the "thorough" version inspection for the lower $150 if you're interested. I'll crawl under it for you, check engine trans #s, and take photos of whatever you like. PM me if interested.
