Default Ebay 70 Vette

When I first saw this one on ebay, it was $1000 and had no bids. Just look at it now. I sent this one to my buddy in jest, and told him if he bought it we could cruise together. I would never have guessed it.

$6500+ that's just crazy for that POS! I'm sorry that's a $1500 parts car at best! It'll take a smooth $10K just to get it looking acceptable!

Man for a car that has been that badly neglected someone sure took the time to do a nice job painting the valve covers and manifold. Sure wouldn't be where I would start a restoration.

Sure is a lot of money for a car that obviously needs everything.

Maybe it's a good indication that economics are getting better when people start offering prices like that for vettes that need alot of help. :thumbs:

A "fresh engine" but no brakes, makes no sense. Good luck to the winner, they will need it
