Default 1978 Red Corvette

I am the 3rd owner of this Vette with 80,000 actual miles. This has been my play toy and I drive it every week, but I need a new toy with a back seat. Overall I grade this Vette a "B". It is a great Vette for someone who is looking for their first Vette or one that is a great driver but still has some things left to tinker on. I choose this one after looking at about 15 different C-3 Vettes because of the overall great shape. This is a numbers matching Engine & Car with some performance upgrades and many new parts. I would estimate about 250-300 horse. This car is really fun to drive and gets people talking. The C-3 Vette is on its way up in value and is a great collector car due to the easy availability of parts on the secondary market. I need to sell this car fast because I just bought a Trans Am, so I am pricing on the low end for a fast sell, but this is not a low end car. NADA value listed below:

Low Retail $8,750
Average Retail Value $12,500
High Retail $20,500

Features:
Red Exterior (Shines)
Original Rally Rims
Leather Doe Skin interior
350 V-8 Engine
Automatic Transmission
AM/FM Cassette Sterio (Original 8track also comes with the car)
T-Tops
Good Tires
Lots of Fun

Its a standard Coupe. I haven't seen any rust issues, I have had it for 2 years and it is always garaged. It has been a garage car most if not all of its life. I don't have the ability to post photos to the string, shank0688 did it for me but if you email me at jeff@onealrentals.com, I can send interior photos and under the hood. I'm not sure what the performance mods are because I bought it this way but I would say a better Cam, upgraded intake Manifold, valve Covers are not original so your guess is as good as mine as to what they did there, A/C removed. It runs stronger than all but 1 of the 15 Vettes I drove before I bought it. Feel free to call me also. 614-582-6870.

Thanks,
Jeff
