I need help looking at 2 corvettes

I am in Greenwood, Indiana and there are 2 C3 Corvette that I would like someone to look at for me if they could. I am in the C2 section most of the time but these look to be nice cars and I am interested. One is in Indiana, PA.
(Wesr central PA) and the second one is in Boxford ME. (North of Bostom) Any help I could get would be great. My direct e-mail is mikes54vet@aol.com or my cell is 317-945-5121 contact me and I can send you a link to the cars with contact names and numbers Thanks in advance for your help. Mike

I understand and I would like to look at them myself but time and distance don't allow me to, that is why I am asking for help from Forum members. I have looked at several Corvettes for Forum members in the past in this area and am hoping someone will chime in and help me. After all aren't we all here for the some thing. Love of the Corvettes and the Hobbie? Thanks

You might get more of a response if you post in the Northeast forum.

If someone else has to look at it perhaps there's a sort of standard format for the review by the onsite person? Anyone put that on here? hard to imagine it isn't around somewhere with all the knowledgable people here.

I'd think photos of the main systems, exterior, engine compartment, interior, beneath to the degree that you can...you'd be surprised what a camera can see with flash under from behind and from front.

could be a little check sheet with ratings...engine overall condition....rate 1-5,
wheels and tires rating 1-5
body front rating 1-5
body rear rating 1-5
interior rating 1-5
road test...engine smoothness 1-5
transmission 1-5
mechanical noise 1-5
windows, lights, switches, gauges 1-5
steering tightness 1-5
engine original 1-5
body original 1-5
prior crash 1-5
paint quality 1-5
bumper quality 1-5
and so on

etc.

If it has to be there is bound to be a useful format especially when coupled with photos on today's good digital cameras.

I live about 40mi from Indiana, Pa. and would be happy to check out that vette for you. Just finished a frame off on a 71 coupe myself, so I guess you could say I know what to look for. mickcore@yahoo.com
