Sad that someone had a vision, that didn't see completion.

$2.47 right now . damn, that thing's not worth the gas to go get it. $100 reserve - to the seller, good luck, but I think you're delusional! it is a shame - C3 or not, no corvette should ever have to go through that...

Such a shame...the seller even seems mortified about it. He parted out the rest on Ebay apparently. The doors would be worth the $100 reserve IMHO though. And the clear title helps a bit. But wow...such a shame.

Later,

$3.33 wow!!! this thing is in a feeding frenzy think the doors are worth the reserve? i don't think so. the doors look like they've been modified, so probably not worth the gas to take them to a scrap yard!

The best way to show that buying the 500lb drum of Bondo @ Costco is a bad idea.

Wonder what the body alone weighs?
