renaissancemanaz Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I guess by definition, I am a 1-post wonder. My wife is actually typing this, because my skills on the computer, writing, typing, etc., are lacking. This would take me an entire week....That is why I do not participate in forums. I assure you, however, that I am honest and reliable, and I am happy to speak with you about this car for sale - assuming it is allowed per the forum rules. I have had this project for well over 15 years - and had always planned to build a nice driver. I, like many do, have put off the project too long. I have some unexpected medical expenses due to progressive health issues now, and have to let it go. I really want it to land with someone who will finish it and enjoy it. These are the details: 1972 Corvette Roadster - Builder - This vehicle is virtually complete. Clean AZ title. Original matching number drivetrain, 350 Turbo 400. Tilt tele Manual windows Original radio Power steering Power brakes AC New radiator and AC condenser New exhaust system (New in box from Corvette Central) ACI aftermarket front end, 20+ years old OEM front valance and bonding strips Factory bonding strips installed OEM hood OEM Inner fenders Front bumper and guards, OEM re-plated Front grilles, NOS, installed Headlight assemblies rebuilt New OEM headlight doors Metal bezels New actuators All rear trim and emblems, new NOS Original tail light assemblies and lenses Rear bumpers need re-plating. They are bolted on the car to show the fit. Full set of matching Rally Wheels NOS OEM rings and caps Original spare - never used Original spare tire tub and jack Original door glass - Astro Ventilation - in very nice condition. New windshield Door hinges were re-bushed before front clip was installed Soft top in place - excellent frame. Needs new soft top. Excellent hardtop - needs headliner Original interior - ok for a driver Front clip body panels installed by professional - me I believe the remainder of the body has never been hit or repaired. This appears to have been repainted one time, over original paint. Original paint code on the car 989, trim 417 NOT running. In the interest of full disclosure, I do fiberglass work, specializing in the older Corvettes. I believe my work is generally highly regarded, and my name, Walt Piper, is trusted. (My wife insisted I include that...) I will be glad to answer any additional questions you have or post additional photos. I am asking $13,500. We are in Strawberry, AZ, about 100 miles NE of the Phoenix area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desertdawg Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Well it's a little out of my price range and probably a little to much work for me...but very tempting. Thanks for providing the additional info... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renaissancemanaz Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Thanks for letting me know.... I sure do understand. Just be aware, I have some room for negotiation. I have to sell this. If you know anyone who might be interested, please pass the info on. Thanks- Walt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
