Default Inventory locator

A few years ago there was a forum member who offered a website listing all the cars in inventory in whatever configuration you wanted, it showed what dealership car was at and even allowed you to view a copy of the window sticker. I believe he passed away, is there anything like that now?

Default jeff hardy inventory list

yes, several years ago there was an individual named jeff hardy who had such a website.
perhaps the most appropriate organization to provide this again would be the national corvette museum. I suggest it could be a paid for service similar to carfax.

One problem you will find today is that the inventory system Chevrolet uses adds all the cars inbound to dealers, even if they are pre-sold customer orders. They will remain in the inventory until the owner comes to complete the transaction, but they are not actually available for sale.

Try www.cars.com. I did, and found over a thousand new C7's nationwide. But which cars are sold or in transit, you'll have to click on the individual dealers.

Good point. A few years ago C6's weren't selling. Most of the cars listed on Jeff's list were sitting in dealers' stock. The C7 is so hot right now, if Jeff's list existed now most of the C7s shown would be sold units.

I really like this website: http://www.chug.net/

It uses dealers' own websites but combines all the listings into one easy to view list.

Jeff Hardy did a great service for us. Of course, it cost me many sleepless nights and untold thousands of dollars. Loved his site.
I don't know of anything close to this now.

too bad jeff did not pass along the knowledge before he had passed away on how to keep it going, it sure was a great tool that many used.
