Bought new here in Ohio. Current owner brought back home from Illinois in 2015 where another mature adult had pampered this Corvette. Included is original window sticker, books, and service records back to 2011. Chassis photos as well as others show minimum exposure to the elements and current owner knows of no changes from original build except maintenance items. Title indicates “Actual” mileage

DETAILS OF CAR:
Window Sticker shows list of options and standard items on this Corvette( see pics)

Paint-
* Current owner believes could all be original paint and we have no indications that would prove otherwise. Our Metal paint gauge will not give readings on Fiberglass

* Paint has great shine, no detectable scratches, smooth surfaces, and same texture on all panels with no detected painting flaws

* Paint matches well all the way around and the only exception being a slight difference in the lower sides of soft rear bumper and the rear fiberglass quarters Being extremely critical, looking at certain angle.

* The front nose has a couple pin head sized nicks but that is all from road use. One is on the left headlight door top (see pics)

* There are 2-3 barely noticeable slight paint cracks to the left of the front license mount that can barely be seen even when sitting on the ground Also the front bumper turn signal lens on each side seem properly mounted but have a couple slight hairline cracks that appear in almost the same locations. Possible impact damage or characteristic issue (see pics)

Body-
* Body all looks factory straight without any noticed flaws or damage.
* Fits and gaps all look proper and consistent, including hood, headlight doors, car doors, trunk lid, fuel fill, and soft top cover. ( see pics)

Bright Work-
*Commemorative flags and emblem, front and rear show no wear or age
*Black painted pillars between windshield and side windows show no wear or damage (see pics)

Glass-
*Windshield and door glass are all designated “Solar Ray” ( see pics)
*Rear window is designated “Temperlite” ( see pics)
*All Glass is very clear, no discoloring, no scratches, no bullseyes, no cracks, no wiper marks
* Looking close to new as possible with just a couple pin head sized nicks from normal driving. ( one on pass side)

Convertible Top-
* Top has been down all summer with car stored in garage. Top was just put up about 24 hrs ago and so some creases may further work themselves out.
* Glass rear window is built in and folds down easily with manual top
* Material shows minimum wear with good stitching, no noticed spots of high wear
* Headliner is all fasted and appears proper without loose seams or issues
* Color is good and looks fairly even with a few spots (in pictures) that seem lighter from possibly rubbing when put up or down. Current owner has not cleaned top and that might improve to some degree.

Interior-
* Entire interior appears to be original OEM and current owner knows of no changes that have been made since it was built.
* Colors are all bold and show no signs of excessive exposure.
* Seats show minimum wear. Stitching in good shape. Bottoms show light typical leather wear in and bolsters show no damage (see pics)
* Owner pointed out that the small covers that fit inside both door handles need reinstalled or replaced. They had become unattached for some reason. ( covers included and in pictures)
* Mats show slight wear

Trunk-
* Mostly looks as never used with carpet and finish parts showing no wear
* Underside of trunk lid shows no damage
* Compartments show no damage and contains the multi disc player
* Note- No spare tire came with this car- ( run flat tires provided on this car)

Engine compartment-
* Engine area is in pristine condition which looks (other then maybe a little dust) much as it would have almost new.
* We do not see signs of harsh reconditioning chemicals, power sprayers, or damaged decals and labels.
* It is obvious that it was used little, cared for with love, and driven on the best of days mostly

Chassis-
* You don’t see any damage to the bottom side ( including belly)
* Buyers to look carefully at all the chassis pictures on our website for a good understanding
* There is a little bit of road film and dust but pretty much undisturbed in anyway

* Small metal fittings and other metal parts mostly don’t show surface rust so it appears to have had nice dry storage

Test Drive-
Chad rode with owner to have car put up on a lift and then rode back about 10-12 miles. Chad later drove for about 3-4 miles to evaluate the drive train and handling. Steering was very responsive, and smooth with good assist. Engine started quickly both cold and warm and seemed to accelerate and operate correctly. Transmission had firm,quick shifts and seemed to up shift and down shift as needed. Brakes stopped car without pull or hesitation. We did notice the very slightest amount of pulsation when braking lightly. Drive train seemed to be just as it was designed to operate.

Conditions of Sale:
Auto Connection is a 3rd party agent, assisting both buyers AND sellers. The vehicles they sell are from private owners and collectors, and they provide advertising, marketing, and consulting services for individuals and companies.

The Auto Connection representative has physically viewed the item being sold. The information comes from the seller and other research sources. Auto Connection is not responsible for any misrepresentation by the seller and/or errors in research results, including history statements of vehicle history, repairs, etc.

This vehicle is being sold AS IS and without a warranty, unless otherwise stated.

Information about serial numbers, engine numbers, and any other codes does not guarantee a vehicle’s authenticity. These codes and numbers are not guaranteed to be the same as the information on the vehicle ID or vin, trim tag, engine block, cylinder heads, transmission, differential, or other components within this vehicle. Auto Connection does not guarantee documentation, authenticity, repairs, mechanical work, titles, odometer discrepancies, matching numbers, stamped engines, casting numbers, or any other codes, tags, or numbers. The potential for reproduction paper documentation exists, as well as restamped engines and reproduced trim/data tags.

Auto Connection has described this vehicle to the best of their knowledge, but does not guarantee the accuracy of the description. Prospective buyers are encouraged to conduct their own due diligence, including a physical inspection of the vehicle in person, or through a qualified third party inspector/appraiser.

The vehicle will remain for sale until a buyer has placed a deposit on it. This deposit is nonrefundable with the exception of the vehicle being severely misrepresented by Auto Connection or the seller, or stipulated in the Bill of Sale.

It is possible that this vehicle will be sold at a higher price than the highest bid (before or after the auction ends), if the reserve is not met. After the sale (if reserve is met or not), Auto Connection must receive at least a 10% deposit (wire transfer or official bank or cashier’s check) within 3 days of the end of the auction (or the Bill of Sale is signed). The high bidder/buyer has 10 days from this time to send the balance in full or final payment and inspect the vehicle (or have a 3rd party professional inspection).

For the most part, the vehicle for sale is not “perfect”. It is unreasonable to assume that every single flaw in the paint, body, engine, etc. or any minor mechanical items (such as a light not working) be considered a reason to refuse the vehicle. Major rust/rot, undisclosed problems with the frame, etc. might constitute a legitimate reason for the buyer to refuse to follow through with the sale. In that situation, the seller and buyer will try to reach an agreeable solution.

The buyer acknowledges that he has had the opportunity to inspect the vehicle to verify it is as listed and represented. He accepts the vehicle with all advertised equipment, options and accessories in “AS IS” condition with any faults or defects. The buyer will bear all future costs of repairs or correcting any defects that exist or may occur in the future. The seller will have no responsibility or liability for any consequential damages or injury caused by any failure or malfunction of the vehicle or any components. This car is being offered for sale by owner. The buyer and seller acknowledge that if the transaction is consummated and a dispute occurs relating to the sale, the laws of Ohio (the state that the car is located/sold) govern the rights and duties under the agreement.
