Car is an Original car with a beautiful original color paint job. Paint is fantastic with a ~1 inch scratch on the driver’s side rear quarter panel (see picture). Chrome, emblems and Stainless are original and show a bit of age and patina. Tires are new red line radials (215’s) on correct Kelsey Hayes AG 15x7 rims. Interior is original, seat are black and in decent condition, top was recently replaced and is fairly new. Topside of car looks great. The underside and engine compartment are not detailed. The Corvette runs, drives and stops. The Car always starts, the exhaust note sounds great (I have a video that I can share of the car running to hear the note), the car was just aligned and it drives straight. Car is a great cruiser and can be driven all day long. This is a good unmolested original car that has a very nice looking finish. Emissions mechanicals have been removed and are missing.
History of the car that I can piece together:
Purchased New on July 8th 1968 By Mark S Millard of Factory Pond Rd, Locust Valley New York. Car was sold new by Midtown Chevrolet – Pontiac, GMC of 1775 Broadway New York, NY
By 1980 the car was owned by John Kuchtuk Jr. of Mecox Road Southhampton N.Y.
By 2009 the car was owned by collector Michael O’Shaughnessy of Pine Edge Place Dix Hills NY 11746 until his death when his wife brokered the car and I bought it.

I have had the car for just over a year and have had lot of fun with it. I am ready for my next Vette and am on the hunt for a low mileage, one owner, highly optioned C5 - probably an automatic.
