Default Need an inspection in Atlanta GA

Anyone in Atlanta able to inspect a 69 I am looking to buy? I am in NM and would like to get some trustworthy feedback on this car. It is being sold by buyavette.

Looks like they only have 2...One yellow and one red. The yellow one is listed as numbers matching....They show pics of the numbers....I can't tell if they are real are not but there are those here on the board than can make a pretty good educated guess if you want to post them here. They have the yellow one priced pretty cheap when it comes to their norm. My biggest concern would be rust on that one.

The red one to me looks to be priced about right on target for them. I'm not really into the restomod vettes so I can't help much on value....I know from time to time they include a 2 year 50,000 mile warranty and free shipping on their nicer more expensive vettes.

I wouldn't be much help with an in-person inspection maybe someone from the area will chime in soon....You might contact one of the local corvette clubs.

Good luck with your search....

Thank you, I appreciate your input. I am looking at the red restomod. It is pretty close to what i wanted to do. Few more mods to finish it off to be my dream car.

Scoolman I am close by (50 minutes) but just had ankle surgery and probably couldn’t get over to look at it until the middle of next week. Would be glad to do it then. Not sure on your timetable. I PM’d you my cell number if you want to give me a call and we can talk about it. I can probably bring another forum member and friend along.

Hope all is well Bill. You know those 69's well and always fun to inspect one to see what you can learn about it. Get better soon buddy. David

There is a large corvette club in Atlanta. Contact them.

Have them send you their detailed inspection report. They are about 9 or 10 pages long. The reports were very accurate on the two I bought from them.

I drove 8 hours to check on a car they had. I was disappointed.

Overall, i am happy with the car. But i am disappointed they did not address issues we discussed and agreed would be taken care of. I really expected more from them; in the end they are just a used cat dealership.
