Don’t see these much anymore

[rtj]

Actually the panel fit looks better than a real 53. I think the price is low because it's an automatic. Do you know what chassis that is built on?

I’ve seen 2 others in the last few years. I believe the last one I saw said a company was building them. Might be custom frame or maybe original if they were building them in the 80’s.

add for the '53 reproduction shown above, or something different? Fallbrook is less than 400 miles from me - might be worth taking a look.

This one is very rough and I don't see any of the very expensive trim pieces like the windshield, door posts, grill, etc. Doesn't look like it's worth much.

BBShark, it looks like a custom frame:

• Custom Built Frame With X Member
• Front Camaro Subframe

Probably a good idea using a Camaro front clip.

This seems like a bargain….

Yes, when you get older, sometimes just getting rid of stuff is more important than the $$$.

I’ve learned putting stuff on FB MP for free usually get rid of it in a couple of days.

I have to occasionally cut down dying/dead hardwood trees, and burning them is a lot of work. Now I just haul them out along the main road and list as free firewood.

I have been trying to lighten the load in my old age. Large/heavy things first. I can't believe the crap I have accumulated.

No, didn’t see that. I’ve never been a Ford guy. Although, I had a Ford truck for my summer jobs in the 80’s that was pretty decent.

Make Me An Offer1969 Corvette with Greenwood Widebody. Nicely done Greenwood widebody with Greenwood fender flares, door extensions, hard top, rear spoiler, and headlight covers. Car comes with an installed roll bar as well as a complete precut roll cage ready to be installed. New 75 Corvette long hood. Wheels on it now look to be a very nice set of 1967 rally wheels and trim rings. Will also come with two seats as well a few misc parts. Painted like the Greenwood Spirit of 75 with correct panels. Car is a roller with no motor, trans, or interior. Frame is solid with no rot, just surface rust. This car would make a killer resto/street rod or can easily be made into a vintage race car. I bought this as part of the two-car deal but will be focusing on the other car I bought. These panels are some of the nicer most correct Greenwood panels I have seen on a car. These look to be correct Greenwood panels and not Ecklers or ACI.11,000 Open to offers.

This transmission is only available to the owner of the numbers matching corvette. Do you own a 1967 L88 or L89Corvette and are missing the original #s transmission? The vin number comes back active in the State of Wisconsin. I may have your transmission. The price for this transmission is obviously not $1.00

That is a needle in a haystack (buyer) sale.

A friend of mine had the original sale documents, window sticker, and maintenance records for his dad's 65 Corvette. His dad sold it in the 80's and somehow Wayne stumbled on the current owner (~2005) on CF. He PM'd the guy on CF and the guy ended up thinking Wayne was trying to scam him somehow. It was weird. Went on for two weeks with the guy reporting Wayne to CF and Wayne was banned from CF!

He ended up throwing the documents in the trash.

That is sort of disappointing. Well, you can’t say he didn’t try.

I remember my 68 had the serial number on the trans.

Yeah, the rear end setup alone is $$.

C4’s aren’t too sought after. But, could be fitted with c3 or c2 body, as it is a chassis car.

I’m getting ready to move, so no purchases for me.
