Default 2000 Nassau Blue FRC (Former owner-Ernie King)$19,500

Price Reduced--$19,500


I am the second owner of this Corvette. The original owner was Ernie King. I purchased this car in October of 2009. The car now has 28,000 miles. I have driven the car very little and have not raced it. I was told that the car ran around 10.50's. I just installed a new RPM rearend, 373 gear, and had the vigilante converter restalled and freshened up, less than 50 miles ago. Other than that, nothing is different from when Ernie had it, except for new wheels and tires. Hate to sell, but we need room for three people. Call 931-636-1520 if you have any questions. I am in Tennessee.

cartek told me Ernie had them to change it over because he broke the manual transmission. I think a couple of times.

Shane - I have sent you a PM about Ernie's Corvette. He and I were very good friends and I know the Corvette very well.

Never got a reply to my PM I sent to you about the Vette, sell it? Is it still available? Reduced price again? Just checking to find out the status as I do have some interest.

I've seen this car in person, clean and it hauls!!! Curious if that was a new owner since this thread is a few months old.
