Interesting 68' Vert on Ebay...
The car is currently at $4750 with the RESERVE met..
Even though the car has a incorrect front clip.. it still looks like a pretty good deal.. It even comes with a hardtop...

Re: Interesting 68' Vert on Ebay... (GrandSportC3)
He's spent more than 4k and sets a reserve somewhere under $4750. I thnk the arrival of his son has clouded his judgement.
Anyway it looks like a very good price even if the frame is completely shot. You just can't drive the car at night.

Yea, its a good deal for YOU guys. From Canada, with the dollar exchange I'd pay a 1/4 million dollars. (and pay [GST] Government Sales tax, [PST]Provincial Sales Tax) if you ask me its BST. :bs

I hope I can find something like that a few years from now. That's exaclty what I'm looking for, even with no motor or tranny. I want to build something similar to yours Oliver, and give my current one to my wife. :yesnod:

"...THIS CORVETTE WAS GOING TO BE MY PROJECT CAR, BUT THE ARRIVAL OF OUT NEW SON FORCES ME TO SELL IT...."
So, the arrival of his new son was a surprise...? Usually, you have about 9 months warning on those kinda things. Sounds kinda fishy to me. :skep:
