I love customs if they are well done. Wide wheel wells, deep-dish Cragars, L-88 hood scoop, permanent headlights, candy paint, chromed engine pieces etc..

If you want to sell my suggestion is to go in to more detail.

What if any original parts remain.

What are all the custom parts. Does it have a 383 stroker? Original matching number motor? Interior? Options?

You will need to provide a little more info.

Frankly, given what I see you have your work cut out.

What is it about that house. I'm thinking of my Vette parked in front of it. Or around the back in the garage. Too bad that '70 vert is customized like it is.

Best to post as many pics of every aspect of the Vette here as possible. People usually don't want to go hunting for pics at other sites.
Video's also help showing the Vacuum system operation, seeing the engine run, and behind the wheel as it is driven.
Good luck.

Your high bid on ebay is $134 less than this price and its not sold?

And really- 22 pictures on ebay means theres no reason you shouldnt post plenty here. Its a free for sale ad... pictures sell your car.

Nice to see for a change. Many people list there car here first for thousands more than they get on ebay and other sites.

Good luck with the sale.

as I'm watching and reading this thread, here's some thoughts on why that car isn't selling:

- Go get it buffed out. There's water droplets all over it and the paint looks muddy purple. hmm, good name for a band "muddy purple".

- The pictures are taken in a dirt lot in front of a rust stained wall and a truck. Is THAT the most scenic backdrop available? I mean REALLY?
When a potential buyer closes his eyes and envisions sitting behind the wheel I can assure you that a rust stained dirt road picture is not anywhere in that dream.

- Armor-all costs $2.99 Go spring for some and do the tires.

- The interior is a disaster. At least try to clean it. Go get 5 cans of spot shot; spray down seats; wipe down with WHITE cloth. That should fix it or at least get the top layer of GRIME off the seats.

- Put the air cleaner back on. That engine pic reads like you've been messin' with the engine.

- Take some nice pictures with a nice backdrop. Put a hot babe in a bikini in it and the car will jump off ebay.
