Default I need info ASAP????

Hi to all,

I posted in the c3 for sale and asked for all of you's about a 1980 for sale in Florida. I am looking to buy one and would like some opinions. This car sounds very nice and it does not need anything. Is the asking price okay or what??? I am the one that asked about a 1979 and it's going to need alot of work and the asking price is between $12000-15000. I have always loved Vettes and now is my chance to get one. Please let me know what you guys think.
the add is just recent...

Thanks
Tom

It looks like you are talking about Vettesics car. It sounds like he has done all of the hard work and the car should be in good condition. Just looking at the pics, it looks like he has done a good job on the car.

If you are talking about Vettesics 1980 I think it's a great deal I'm almost at $30K and still need paint and some more interior work. Of course mine is not stock I put new engine, tranny, radiator, fans, exaust, shifter, etc, etc,. But I paid $9000 plus tax title and license for the car befor any restoration. It was in good shape with I think 56,000 original miles, but the car is 24 years old and everything that wears needed to be replaced. So IMHO if you like it go for it, it will save you months of work and tons of $.
