Vehicle Description
EXTERIOR: This red really pops. This car has been repainted and presents very nicely. It is super vibrant and glossy, there are freckles and touch-ups if you look for them. All the panels are beautifully aligned with nice consistent gaps. The bumpers fit very well and are in excellent shape, this was the only year for the split back bumper. The doors close easily with minimal effort, headlights open and close. The glass appears to be good original. It has been upgraded with a power antenna. The tan convertible top looks great. It is sitting on 15" Corvette rims wrapped in size 225/70/R15 radial tires.
INTERIOR: Extremely nice overall. The seats have been recovered and the carpeting was replaced. Everything else looks to be original and in great condition. It's equipped with a tilt and telescopic wheel. The clock and lights even work. The best part is the Hurst 4-speed shifter, it is a blast to drive.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Under the hood is the correct #'s matching L82 performance 350 engine. This included 4 bolt main block, forged steel crankshaft, hotter cam, large port heads and is identified by the finned aluminum valve covers. It still has the ignition shielding over the distributor and wires. It looks like the clutch fan was replaced. Even the squirters are hooked up. This is a proper engine compartment, all things considered.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Behind the seats is a nicely carpeted area with storage hatches. It also houses the convertible top when it is down.
UNDERSIDE: Well preserved and maintained as needed. It has disc brakes at all 4 wheels, the e-brake was just serviced. Looking up at the motor it has lower ignition shielding and correct starter. The M-21 Muncie 4-speed is VIN #'s matching. It also has its original 3.08 posi rear.
SERVICE: Our lead mechanic thoroughly inspected this car, and we replaced the starter, lubed the speedo cable, replaced all the control arm bushings, replaced one lower ball joint, adjusted the driver door rod, and replaced the brake cables.
CONCLUSION: If you've wanted a Corvette since you were a kid, you've waited long enough! An l-82, 4-speed posi in a convertible! This is your opportunity to get a very honest, original, and stylish car without draining the 401K!

About Volo Auto Museum
No other collector car dealer has been in business longer than the Volo Auto Museum. Owned and operated by the Grams family since 1960. We are the only collector car dealer that has 4 generations of experience with buying, selling and consigning classic autos. For our family, classic cars are more than a business, it is a passion. Over the decades, we have maintained a reputation for dealing with integrity as proven with our high reviews and A+ rating with the BBB.
Buying a classic car can be exciting, but also stressful. We want to take the stress out of your buying experience by allowing you the time and tools you need to get to know the car you are interested in before making your investment, not after. Unlike auctions, we allow test drives, 3rd party inspections, the use of our shop and car lift. No reasonable request will be turned down.
Selling a car can be equally stressful, but it doesn’t have to be. After reviewing your quality collector car, we will discuss the options we have available to you and let you decide what works best for you. We have cash available for immediate sales and we also offer a consignment program that surpasses anyone else’s. Unlike percentage based programs with fees; we work with a no fee, net to owner. This allows us the opportunity to treat and market your car as if it were our own. We invest approximately $1500 of our own money into marketing your car, which means if it doesn’t sell, we lose, not you. So, we are more aggressive in selling your car!
