Default Anybody know this dealer in Sarasota FL?

Anybody know anything about Humpty Dumpty's Classics in Sarasota FL? They have a Corvette I am interested in and I would like to hear from anybody who may know their reputation and the quality of their cars.

Feel free to send a PM if you would rather communicate off the board.

There are a few members on here a lot that live in the area. Maybe one of these will be able to help you. I am about an hour north but I have never dealt with this dealer so I cannot help, altough I have heard of it.

Check with member MSG C5. He may know something about them, he lives in that area.

I have never heard of them or dealt with them, however I can ask around. The name is a little creepy...

Thanks to both of you. I am sure somebody knows these folks or that car.

No, I just looked at it online, I think for a 1998 they are asking a bit too much, I bought a 2002 with 14,000 miles for 22K almost 4 years ago.

I saw a blue 99 at a podunk car lot in Palatka couple days ago. Just north of 100 on 17. Just driving by. Just thought I would mention it.

They have been in the area for a few years. I have passed their place several times. They seem to specialize in classic, muscle and specialty cars. I have no direct information one way or another about their reputation.

The 4 sale sections here are historically known for owners over-estimating the value of their Corvettes.
