Inoperative A/C for ANY reason and electrical problems are deal killers for me! They are expensive to repair and electrical problems can drive you crazy, specially on a Vette! It reaches 100+ with humidity to boot here in the summertime so A/C is necessary for this old geezer!

I sent him an email asking him if i bring a battery can we start it and test drive it and he told me no he dont want anyone driving it cause of the bad A/C. I dont know to many people who will pay 9k for a vette that they cant test drive. Sounds like money pit. Would not be suprised if there is motor or trans problem.

" DR Witt" just emailed me back saying he knows what he has and knows its worth every penny. Being a Doctor he has money for a battery. I tried to explain to him that IF the car was running 8,800 would be hard to get. With not hearing the motor and knowing how the trans shifts unless you find some sucker you will never get 8800. 8800 plus fixing the ac your close to a 10,000 dollar car. You can get a really nice LT1 car with low miles that runs and needs nothing for that kind of money.

I agree,And also who in their right mind would buy a car that is supposed to run without atleast hearing it run.

You guys didn't mention my favorite thing in a C/L ad....
"Title is missing but car isn't stolen. It's very easy to get a new title"
I always email them and ask them, "If it's so damned easy to get a title, why don't YOU do it?"
I seldom get a response, but when I do, it's something along the lines of "I haven't had time, etc". It is neither cheap nor easy to get a new title, at least in Texas. It is expensive and time consuming, and isn't always possible.

Nice looking color combination, lack of a battery is no big deal, A/C could be more of a big deal, but refusing to let you test drive it....
And over and over, we see people with high asking prices who "know what they have" and the cars are always "worth every penny". Translation - "If I paid that much for it, must be everybody else will too!"

Sounds like a scammer. Of course it does not say Cooper OWNED the cars, just drove them . In the future, if I ever come across a celebrity I'll ask them to pose in my Vette for a photo. That should add quite a bit to its value if I ever sell it!

Funny part is the vehicle was supposed to be driven by him in Arizona the car wasn't even in Arizona till he bought it a few weeks ago according to the Car fax not to mention that's just a look alike in the pic.

At what point does something like that become actual fraud (criminal) as opposed to just slick salesmanship? Somebody should at least report the bozo to flea-bay.
