Default Yon got to check out this E-Bay Corvette

Let me say up front that I don't slam other vettes. Over the years I have owned both good and bad, but when you put one up fore sale and list the details all bets are off. :yesnod:

This guy must have had a high ball before he sit down at the putter.

Here is his details of this 77 Vette, link is at the bottom.

You are bidding on this beautiful 1977 Corvette Classic with the factory Rally Sports Package.
Lets see now, D35 Sport Mirrors = Rally Sports Package

This car has the orginal butterscotch paint and a professionally painted accent stripe.
Butterscotch must be fancy for Tan. Accent stripe, I wont even go there.

It is powered by a 350 H.P. motor with an Overhead Cam.
All I can say is WOW!!!! Where did he come up with that.

This car is a Collector's dream.
Maybe collector nightmare.

It catches the eyes everywhere it goes.
I bet it does.

This car has been shown in many car shows and parades.
Shown is the key word here.

It is also equipped with a security punch code system with a kill switch.
What RPO # was that?

This vehicle has power windows, AC (disconnected for fuel economy) and Cruise Control.
Which means the A/C does not work

The four Radial S/R Widetrack tires have plenty of tread. Included in the purchase of this vehicle is the original Owners Manual, the two mint-condition T-tops, and a Corvette car bra showing the Corvette flag logos. This car has been well care for by storing it in the garage with cover.
Wow, logo on bra and it comes with 2 T-tops.

You cant blame the guy for making it sound as good as he can, after all, he's trying to sell the car. The only other thing he could do to sell it faster would be to paint over that stripe. But you never know... some people like those funky stripe things. :nonod:

NADA $28,900?

Must be a typo or maybe it's that special overhead cam. :p:

NADA value is $28,890 and the opening bid is $9,500. Looks like a steal. Gee I wonder why no one has bid?

No...I guess not. But let's state facts...not fantasy.

The T-tops look like new. They are the orginal matching solid butterscotch color and they do not leak.

He obviously has never driven the car!
:confused:

Aside from going :eek: :confused: at the stripe, the quoted NADA value is the only thing I'm really scratching my head over. Is there a '77 in existence that's honestly worth nearly $30k?
