Light Green Vette on eBay

[jdnathan]

Hi guys, there's a light green vette on eBay for a suspiciously cheap price, and I was wondering if any of you had any concerns on it...?

Any pointers would be lovely, as I am not sure what I am looking out for.

Parts of the exhaust system looks as though they'll need replacement very soon. Engine looks as though it was replaced at some point (unless it was just rocker covers?)

Yea, I did a MOT look up - it's shocking how bad the condition is, I am suprised he's allowed to sell it to be honest!

Looks nice in the photos, but depending on how much you want to work on it yourself, the really expensive issues are chassis and birdcage rust and the condition of the paintwork. If you really want a Corvette, then I'd suggest you join the club, get the buyers guide and attend some regional meetings to talk to owners and look at their cars.

Appreciate that, I had a vette (as can be seen in my profile pic) but I had to sell a few years back. But now I am ready to buy one, again, Ideally I am not looking for a massive project, and have been bidding on a few elsewhere.

Take johng`s advice and hopefully avoid some major pit falls .
