Default Immaculate all original 91 C4 Vette. Im in love with my first Corvette.










Finally got the chance to post photos of my first Corvette. The car is all original, including the paint, except for Magnaflow mufflers and the radio. This car has 48K miles and has been kept in a barn for the last nearly 10 years in Nebraska. I had it shipped to me here in Tennessee 2 days ago. Its safe to say I'm offically in love.

That's a really nice car you have there and I'm pleased to see that it's a manual. IMHO all sports cars should be manuals.
I hope to share your joy when I get my hands on my original 39K mile 88 model sometime next week. I bought the car in the first week of October and it's been hard to be patient when it missed the boat in early December, and then failed the quarantine test last Friday (road grime under the wheel arches). Hopefully it will pass it's retest in the next couple of days, and then I will be as happy as you.

Very clean! I know how much fun you're son will have. Because my dad always had Vettes since I was born. Never wanted to get out them!

I agree about how fun a manual is for cruising! Congrats on your 88! Keep us updated and post pics!

It does appear to be in nice cosmetic condition. Enjoy it.
And if you had bothered to read the mufflers are MAGNAFLOW, not FLOWMASTER and he stated clearly that they were obviously not original. He also mentioned the radio which would also include wiring mods that seem so important to you. Can't believe in all your astute observations you failed to bring that up!

I also call BS on your claim of no 25 year old car being original. I have seen several right down to the tires and windshield wipers.

Go "bristle" somewhere else and not try and **** all over someone else's joy.

The car looks amazing! Being from K-town myself I can think of some nice mountain roads that you and your son will love to drive it on. Pay no attention to the kill-joy above.

Dude, get over yourself.

Also congrats on car, I received my "all original" 96' couple weeks ago. Best money I have spent in a long time.

Enjoy.
