Default Buying Vette in Ohio

Hello everyone,

I just signed up to the forum - although i have been an unregistered viewer for some time.

I am located in Boise Idaho and just purchased a 72 vette via eBay.
The seller graciously offered to hold the car so someone can verify its condition (the car is in Toledo OH). If anyone is interested in checking it out that would be great! Doesn't need to be a c3 guy - just need the primarily paint looked at.

I look forward to talkin to you all in the threads!!!

Thanks!

Bryce

How soon does it need to be looked at as I'm out of town for another week; otherwise, I'm about an hour from Toledo

Why just the paint, these cars can have a lot of other serious issues?
