Be careful and patient in buying a C2 corvette. These cars are over 50 years old and many have issues that only an expert can detect. Sellers often use misleading words such as " numbers matching" which means nothing. It took me three years to find my C2 and paid an expert $700 to know what I was buying. Good luck.
