Default 1990 C4 Bright Red - Was part of the Buck Owens Estate

1990 C4 Corvette Convertible. This car not only has a cool history but it is in really good shape. The mileage is estimated at 50,000. We have have paper work to show that. This car's past history is documented and shows that it was in the Buck Owens family and sold to Buck Owens Productions on January 11, 1990. The car was paid for in full and picked up and signed for by Mel Owens, Bucks nephew (I have the pictures of the contract). Mel runs all of Buck's businesses and still is at the helm of Buck Owens Productions. This car also comes with a red hard top, an option that cost $1900 back in 1990. it's rare to have this option. This car is priced to move ($8999). I have done a detailed cost analysis on this car and have priced it to move. Call for more info 661 809 7387. nvautosales.com Bob Vella - car dealer and corvette enthusiast, have owned several over the years.

If I hadn't recently bought my '93 40th, I'd be really tempted to fly out and drive this back to Kansas City. The history is kind of cool - but the car itself, with the hardtop, looks like a really good deal.

Yes it is cool driving this car knowing who sat in it before me

How does one come up with estimated miles?

the speedometer was replaced in 2014 and it had approximately 47000 miles at that point. It now has 2858 on the new clock.

The dash does not control the odometer reading the BCM does.

Then that was replaced. I do not have all of the receipts on the car just records of events.
