Don’t you just hate it when you run across a car for sale online, and it looks fine in the pictures but turns out to be a basket-case full of gremlins when you get it home, kind of like a blind date? Well, meet the exact opposite of that. This burned-out 1979 Chevrolet C3 Corvette is hiding nothing; every bit of it is there to be seen, although finely coated in powdered fiberglass residue and extinguisher foam.
Perched on a pallet in Alabama somewhere, this once brown on brown coupe is now nothing on nothing, unless ash grey and rusty charcoal are favorite colors of yours. The ACV (Actual Cash Value) is listed at $6,517 and is being sold on a bill of sale.
From what the pictures show, you just need to throw on a few body panels, some tires (those wheels will probably buff out), new seats, maybe some front glass, replace the wiring and give it a tune-up, and you might have a runner there!
The seller is being brutally honest by admitting it won’t start (a minor electrical issue), the transmission type is unknown, the odometer is a melted puddle of slag on what remains of the floor-board, and the VIN is missing and presumed dead, but that’s small taters compared to the honor of owning a real Corvette!
Be the envy of everyone on your block when the forklift deposits this hunk-a-hunk-a-burnin’ love in your driveway. Remember, your neighbors aren’t laughing at you, they’re laughing near you! With only six days to go in the auction, there are no bids yet, so don’t miss your chance to own some bowtie history, and believe me, this 1979 C3 Vette certainly is history!
