It looks like I'm getting a settlement from the lift manufactuer for the lift and the damage to the cars. With a full plate of projects in front of me I've decided to sell the car to someone looking for a real nice body-off convertible that needs some patching up. The frame was undamanged. Damage limited to surround panel and fender (buyer might choose to do a full clip just because its easier), new bumper, a headlight bucket, and obviously paint on the front clip. Hood was undamaged. A do-it-yourselfer and or someone with a good body guy could probably put it together fairly inexpensively. Email for more info.

Stats:
350/350 (correct 4-bolt block - wrong dates. Rest of motor is original)
4-spd M-20
3.55 posi
Power Steering
Power Brakes
Tilt/Tele
AC (new evap. installed, still missing some pieces)
Saddle leather (was vinyl)
Side louver trim
'80 Alloy wheels (may consider lower price without these)
Modern AM/FM/CD (can easily be restored to stock radio)
REAL 2 1/2" exhaust using '65 rams horns

Frame-off resto included:
Complete suspension rebuild
SS fuel and brake lines
New Brakes with SS calipers
Rebuilt & Balanced Motor
New PB Booster
Rebuilt PS control valve and pump









There are a few odds and ends that I never finished up on the car. Nothing extensive. Feel free to write for more info.

Pics of the resto in progress are included in the link on my sig line.

I have $23K invested in the car right now (I have receipts) and was asking $21K OBO before the lift incident. I'm asking $13.5 OBO now.

If I can get rid of my '79, that's exactly the kind of project I'd like to replace it with. Keep me posted. :chevy

Thanks for the inquiries. Looks like Larry is going to need to add a 69 Corvette link on his website.

Sold.

I can't wait to add that car to my site AND garage!

Larry you will love that car. I wanted it ... but I needed some other things like .... the money! :lol:

Congrats!!!!

Chris..... :cry :D

Thanks Mike!
It's definately the car I've been watching for. Now if we can just chew through the insurance red tape so I can take possession!

We might cut the lift insurance crap out and I'll just submit theough Hagerty. I don't think I'll get a run around from them, and I'll let their lawyers battle out any recovery from Gemini.

I'll talk to all parties and see what they think. Maybe this weekend is right for the exchange.

Thanks for being patient. My guess is you want that car about as much as I want the space in my garage!

lbell101

Ya - if you can work it out for this weekend that would work great!
I'm definately anxious to get to work on it.
Please let me know what you come up with - thanks!
