Default Sites for Vettes

Does anyone have suggestions on where to look for C3 corvettes to purchase, other than this forum, auto-trader and vehix?

I want to expand my search, find some reputable contacts, good sites to peruse, etc.

Thanks.

This forum in the for sale section would be a great place to start. If you dont see what you want put a post telling everyone what you are looking for.

There are tons out there. Here are a few:
vettefinders.com
usedcorvettesforsale.com
corvettetrader.com
ebay.com
craigslist.com

Just Google "Corvette Dealers" and you should find ProTeam, Corvette Mike, Mershons, etc.

Ya, I have heard of some of those places and did the google search thing. I was just concerned about legitimacy.

It was my experience that there are both legitimate sellers as well as dishonest sellers on any site listed. One just has to do his homework, take his time, talk to the sellers, and go see the cars one is interested in. Hopefully, then, a person will able to discern who is legitimate or not. Get others' opinions too. Good luck!
